July/August earnings going to be biblical. Apple, Amazon, AMD, Google, Microsoft, etc. This could make or break the market. If we see meaningful growth from hyperscalers relating to AI we’ll rocket. If not, we drill. Capex will also be huge.
Keep only 5. AMD. WDC. CRDO. STX. CIEN
nice caught some good moves today. 10% of my account each in INTC, SNDK, and AMD and grabbed 10k in QQQ friday calls already up a good chunk on all 4.
You took some vague data and made a lot of assumptions on them, you stretched what can concretely be called "repositioning" into global worldwide crash. You even refer to it as such "repositioning" AMD having loads of 0dte calls when they are trending and have bullish news coming out consistently, and TSLA OTM call volume as if that never happens must equal "manufactured green screen". And you site two countries down on imports as=global catastrophe. And the fed indicating hikes is not new ie priced in., they change their mind on a dime anyhow, only thing of concern you point to is consumer spending down, which was a given being gas prices bc of the crisis. Whether the crisis continues, or keeps going is the only thing that matters and Taco remains true. Midterms corrections are nothing new, but that's what it'll be not anything to do with what you try to correlate here

Right when I buy calls on AMD.... lmfa
The thesis is straightforward. Lumentum is completely booked through 2028, and the laser shortage isn’t easing anytime soon — every qualified laser supplier will be absorbed by demand. That’s where AAOI steps in. The AMD rumors are particularly interesting. If AMD adds AAOI to their ecosystem alongside GLW, AAOI essentially participates in two separate cycles simultaneously — supplying transceivers for one and laser chips for another. That’s a dual revenue stream most competitors can’t offer. What the market is currently missing is the laser chip story. Everyone is focused on the transceiver ramp, but AAOI is expanding their Sugar Land facility’s laser chip production for a reason. That build-out isn’t just capacity insurance — it’s a deliberate bet on becoming a vertically integrated laser supplier at scale. And here’s the optionality that rarely gets discussed: if CPO eventually displaces pluggable transceivers, AAOI doesn’t necessarily lose. The same Sugar Land factory floor can be reoriented toward laser chip production, since CPO architectures still require external laser source modules. The factory becomes more valuable, not less. This is a company positioned to win in multiple scenarios, and the market is only pricing in one of them.

Bruh, AMAT +12%, KLAC +10%, hell even AMD is green. Only red holdings are MU & Intel... We going back to 265.
Closed my 13k AMD yolo for a 3K gain. Not as glorious as some of you here, but I've gotten slaughtered before for being too greedy. I left some money on the table, but that's better than losing money.
*AMD recovers from -5% to +1.5%* NVDA: best i can do is slowly lose my gains all day
AMD building a very strong support at $505ish. 4 days of pumping off that
Good positions I feel, still lots of AMD, NVDA, RKLB, GOOGL, which have been doing well. It's specifically my Rule 7 breaker dropping 40% being the reason I'm down that much - it's too much of the portfolio probably, and I'm still confident long term, but it makes the books for the year look real bad.
I would 100% embarrass you in front of your mom and girl, all I have to do is pull up my $7 cost avg on AMD and you’d start crying like a bitch, just like you have been all morning already 😂😂😂

AMD will also struggle to buy RAM, right?
That QNX expansion into AI edge is insane considering AMD just projected Q2 CPU revenue to jump 70% YoY from AI demand, https://wiseek.ai/ticker/amd/news/amd-forecasts-q2-cpu-revenue-up-70-yoy-us-blocks-mi350x-ai-chip-sales-3c28ed3aa9cb1ae8dbb1ead38a8dfd0b3f3d2905e08c78914f388491d70634c8. Could be a decent play for secure RTOS with that kind of growth.

I did that with AMD and Nvidia
Ya my AMD calls are so cooked, I keep losing man.
If you want to maximize ROI, volatility is what you’re looking for. So more AMD. Also $DRAM or $MU.
What I would do, and plan to do, is invest in SK Hynix and remain invested in AMD; with AMD, I only have about 50 shares. Then periodically trim SK and AMD, and invest in GOOGL for the long term. In my opinion, GOOGL will be able to monetize its AI spending the fastest among all hyperscalers. I would not completely sell out of the GOOGL position, only a portion of it.
Amateur post. Kid wake up. Did you think AMD would double in 8 months? You took your money and put it into two places you thought would pay off. Both did great What's your crystal ball going to tell you about next 8 months?
AMD and NVDA calls
Buy low sell high. Get out of AMD. If it keeps going up, great. But get out. Then buy graphics packaging. It will go 300% within a year 100% within 6 months. They just finished their mega factory in Texas. It are free cash flow sent them down 85%. It’s done now and free cashflow has returned. I avoid tech stocks. Even great companies like google have too low a PE ratio for me.
I'm not saying which one to buy, but Googl is a 4 Trillion company in stock value and still growing and AMD is 850 Billion. Both are great companies to me. Personally , I would look at AMD with more room to grow in the future. But, It just has insane volatility, more for the long term investment.
You’re noticing a massive trend The defense boom is directly fueling the tech boom because modern military gear requires massive computing power. Long-term investors are piling into Nvidia and AMD because defense giants like Raytheon are heavily upgrading their hardware with cutting-edge semiconductors for AI drone swarms, advanced radar, and real-time tracking systems…. The chips are everywhere
Green week ahead, because June 4 incoming. War contained. SK + Samsung 61B investment alleviates HBM4 bottleneck. With no limits on HBM4, AI gear suppliers now can increase production to meet demand. ASML pop cuz more lithography devices needed. NVIDIA, AMD pop, cuz more RAM available. Google pop, cuz more RAM available. Etc.

ASML is a tough one to argue against over the long run. It's one of the few true bottlenecks in the entire semiconductor industry. On Broadcom vs AMD, I mostly agree with your reasoning. AMD probably has the higher upside if it keeps taking AI share but Broadcom feels like the more diversified AI infrastructure play and after the recent pullback the expectations are a bit more grounded.
ASML. Im adding into it if i see a red day, minimum 100-300$ i will add. Within 6-7 months I got like close to 5 shares and almost 30% up. AMD is way went up and others like mrvl qualcomm intel. I would pick broadcom if i hat to chose amd cs avgo vs mrvl
>AMD Next Gen GPUs are better than NVDA I would strongly assume he's talking about datacentre product? For gaming, they're nowhere near Nvidia.
I didn't buy AMD at $12 or Ethereum at $20 in 2017 because I was buying a house... RIP. Ethereum blew past $1000 6 months after I bought my house 🤦
Apple memory fud is retarded ber nonsense because that's all commodity DRAM. reports are showing CXMT's rates aren't even that much lower than what MU or SK or Samsung are asking anyway. but basically for CXMT to hurt MU where the real profits are, they'll need like 3 unlikely things to happen around the same time, 1. China doesn't absorb domestic supply 2. true vertical stacking 3D DRAM actually turn out to be a better solution than HBM for data centers. but it's still theoretical and i'm not sure who's even studying this 3. China catches up on server grade DDR5 when they are 1 generation behind in product and 3 years behind in manufacturing. but the catch here also is that even if they catch up, they'll need to get qualified with NVDA, INTEL XEON, AMD EPYC, etc. to take money from the big three. this not only takes a long ass time, but would also surely be blocked by Congress
SNDK- 40% AMD- 30% ALAB- 20% ARM- 10% I am not sure when exactly nor at what dollar intervals, but this is the idea.
This is soooo me. Whatever I buy, it soon falls and stays below water forever, so when it finally gets back to break even or a little above, I get nervous and dump it. Then they run like crazy. Have done this with AMD, Palantir, Marvell, VRT, and many others.
I kind of get what you mean. Broadcom feels more like a boring long term play business, whereas Nvidia and especially AMD attract a lot more retail attention because they're the obvious AI chip names. Broadcom's AI story is also less visible, it sits behind networking, custom ASICs and infrastructure rather than the headline GPUs, which probably makes it feel more institutional.
Advancing AI is just a workshop, not to reveal anything new is it? Do you have more details on AMD's Next Gen GPUs being more efficient than NVDA?
Definitely think AMD is undervalued and can double in a few years. Nvidia double in the same time frame? I don't know about that, that would mean they would have to be a 10 trillion dollar market cap.
Broadcom seems more of an institutional play vs Nvidia or AMD with latter two almost meme like
Is it bullish for NVDA and AMD?
Invest in something that is constantly on the rise, like Micron, but buy on a day it tanks like on a Friday. I bought AMD back in September paid 176.00 a share. Now it's in the 500's.
The worst part of it is you have to pay taxes for the house and the stonks. I feel you, last year I had to AMD, MU, besides others just before the run. Probably missed about 300k 😂🤪

Now probably isn’t the best time to buy AMD. I would wait for a dip before getting in
I hold AMD too, but NVDA and AMD only signed an MOU, being broken at Hormuz routinely.
You can say this about every memory stock, SNDK is just the most egregious. I bought STX at 350 and heard it at 500. MU had the doubters running wild at 400. Truthfully, you can say this about every major chip stock. I vividly remember NVDA pre split at 700, AMD at 250. They’ve all received the same negativity and doubt that began several hundred % ago
$AMD is the stock for the next 3 years. We will see it go to 3T market cap. https://www.amd.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2026-3-18-samsung-and-amd-expand-strategic-collaboratio.html AMD Next Gen GPUs are better than NVDA while consuming much less energy and more memory efficient. AMD CPUs are already way ahead of INTL.
35% DBS - Singapore Bank, local stock for me 30% AMD - Rose from 7%, it was a small old bet that paid off 20% GOOG 15% A mixture of MSFT, BRK.B & QQQ Currently DCA monthly into GOOG annualized XIRR is 27.2% 6.5 year old portfolio
It's propaganda. Their early phoronix report wasn't great and AMD released a rebuttal. Vera is nowhere near as good as Nvidia claim
All good, it's just a side bet - i'm mainly in AMD which can easily compensate for any losses. Good short tho - shorting is one things i'm sadly not good at. Stuff like OKLO were clear shorts but i'm often scared away by the costs
I sold $AMD very early (got in at $1.8, asked r investing and they laughed at me, but cashed out just at $8) and thought MU was next. It was trading at PE 3x at the time if I recall correctly. But it was lateral for a lot of time, with Trump messing with China back in his first term. MU was already a meme here when I got in. Remember Marty.
My brother in christ, NVDA has been cooking Intel and AMD for over a decade
Yep. AMD, QCOM and Intel spent over 2 decades or more chasing Nvidia and you think a startup with limited capital can tame the dragon while the others with almost endless capital can’t? Starting a new chip company from scratch is hard. Ask Google and Amazon and how much they spent. The best hope is for cbrs to get brought out for its IP when it’s down 70% from here
Yes. ...This, in turn, allowed the researchers to forge attestation reports and implant persistent backdoors on AMD SEV-protected virtual machines...
This is real, everyone recognizes him from the MU and AMD stock subs.
I had AMD when it was 6 bucks. My dumbass thought I was smart trying to day trade. Eventually sold all of it at a loss. As of right now? SOUN. Bought it at the highest point. Get your shit together SOUN
Decided to buy house in 2024: Sold Micron, sold AMD, sold Nvidia. I know your pain. (It's a nice house though. I hope yours is too.)
Bought AMD leaps before the huge run up (I was down about 50% on them at some point for a while lol). Sold the day when OpenAI announced that they will be buying AMD chips, I was hesitating whether I should hold those leaps or sell them. Made a boat load of money on it either way. I put a little less than half of my profits into $MU leaps with the mentality to hold for a long ass time when MU was about $180/share. Sold that for a small profit because I kept reading that MU is very cyclical, so I sold them thinking I sold the top and was a genius. Then put the other half of my profits into SoFi leaps when SoFi was about $26/share. Down 50% on them :). Miraculously, I’m up still up a lot somehow…
Here’s the answer I was looking for! In the past, I have bought AMD for sub $30, MU for sub $60, ENPH for sub $10, (and a few others). My issue wasn’t my buy price, it was my impatience—I sold them all for roughly what I paid for them. 😭
It’s ok, I had 18,000 AMD shares in 2013 and sold most of them for a car.
Smci. Dell and HPE are no longer able to provide servers for datacenters. Smci picks up that void. I feel its the same play as AMD and INTC with NVDA.
Stifel initiated coverage of BlackBerry ) with a Buy rating and $12 price target. Despite the stock’s 130% rally year-to-date, the market “still misdefines” BlackBerry, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says the company is no longer an auto-supplier story, but a “mission-critical software layer” in physical AI and a “dominant partner” to silicon leaders like Nvidia, Qualcomm, and AMD. Stifel believes BlackBerry shares warrant a premium valuation given its lower revenue risk, margin expansion as its mix shifts toward runtime royalties, and high free cash flow conversion.
That’s ok I bought 2000 shares of AMD at $11 sold them at $15 when I set up a stop loss. Stuff thought I was a rockstar with my $8k gains.

NVDA and AMD going crazy up
Going all in AMD and NVDA calls
They track to more of a traditional IPO - one that needs capital to buildout and scale. In comparison NVIDIA was making their chips for a different market - graphics - and it happened that AI - a matrix math, linear algebra market could be fit into their paradigm. (They just needed way more RAM then a the small graphics buffer.) Calculating a token is no different than calculating a pixel, or for that matter anything else. AI has several subsets of needs that are met with differing designs, when done efficiently. Cerebras falls cleanly, and better into one aspect of the solution. Mind you there is no barrier to entry. Recall the first tensor cores came out of Google, now everyone is implementing them as co-functions - AMD, INTEL, NVIDIA, and on. As with any nascent market with massive spend you need to keep track of the adjacencies (power, networking, storage, compute) and monitor the benchmarks. Today Cerebras holds the crown in performance. Expect this to go wide then narrow back as the inevitable shake out/acquisition cycles occur. Caveat - NVIDIA has decades of investment in software (called CUDA) that gives them an advantage but as this is a very hardware hardware intensive play I would expect that advantage to diminish over time. Really how they got pole position was pure luck. The capital being spent in this market is so huge and the solutions so defining that like the internet there is no turning back. And when you have massive capital investment assured for a LONG time - its opportunity meets innovation time.
Money going back into NVDA and AMD
AMD deserves 30% pullback INTC 40%
I already know if the market decides to pump NVDA will cap out at $194 while AMD bounces to $530
AMD still over $500 so this dip is still fake and gay
The widespread financial narrative that the artificial intelligence capital expenditure (CapEx) boom is a short-term, speculative bubble on the verge of bursting represents a fundamental misunderstanding of the hardware being deployed. Skeptics point to massive quarterly data center spend and argue that generative AI software cannot generate the near-term revenue required to justify such unprecedented infrastructure costs. However, peer-reviewed engineering blueprints and recent hardware roadmaps reveal that the tech sector is not blindly over-building for conversational chatbots. Instead, the multi-billion-dollar facilities under construction are designed as the foundational, multi-tiered engines required to sustain Quantum-Centric Supercomputing (QCSC) (Johnson, K. D., High Performance Quantum-Centric Supercomputing: A Working Implementation of Heterogeneous Orchestration, March 2026). Because quantum processing units (QPUs) are bound by the physics of the No-Cloning Theorem, they cannot independently store raw digital datasets, manage 24/7 network traffic, or copy quantum states. They are structurally dependent on an immense, high-performance classical infrastructure to handle data ingestion, manage input/output streams, and translate fragile quantum probabilities into actionable digital code. The current infrastructure land grab is not an irrational tech bubble; it is the deliberate construction of the physical scaffolding required for a unified, hybrid classical-quantum computing grid. This permanent architectural shift from standalone quantum experiments to highly integrated Quantum Data Centers (QDCs) is explicitly documented across the highest tiers of academic literature. In a foundational study published in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A, titled "Quantum Data Centres: why entanglement changes everything" (Royal Society Publishing, February 2026), researchers established that building a single, monolithic quantum processor to scale computing power is physically unsustainable due to noise and decoherence limits. Instead, the peer-reviewed consensus states that scaling quantum capability requires localized network infrastructures where multiple modular quantum processors work together within a unified data center fabric. To build the practical "plumbing" for this distributed model, Cisco Quantum Labs unveiled the Cisco Universal Quantum Switch alongside a network-aware Quantum Compiler (Cisco Research, The Universal Quantum Switch, April 2026). Operating at room temperature over standard telecom fiber, Cisco's research prototype dynamically routes quantum entanglement across different vendor hardware and modalities with less than 4% encoding degradation, enabling independent server racks to pool their processing power into a single virtualized quantum supercomputer. This modular, fiber-linked reality is further validated by a landmark study published in Nature titled "Scaling and networking a modular photonic quantum computer" (Xanadu Quantum Technologies, 2025), which showcases the Xanadu Aurora platform. Xanadu successfully demonstrated a universal, gate-based photonic quantum computer comprising multiple distinct server racks interconnected by 13 kilometers of fiber optics at room temperature, providing a direct blueprint for how quantum hardware can integrate seamlessly into standard corporate real estate by 2029. This spatial integration is happening concurrently with hardware deployments from pure-play leaders like IonQ and Quantinuum. In a joint academic milestone, IonQ successfully demonstrated tripartite entanglement across a multi-node remote trapped-ion network (Duke University & IonQ, June 2026), proving that independent atomic quantum server racks can scale horizontally over fiber distances. Meanwhile, Quantinuum advanced the stability of these systems by implementing a real-time, fault-tolerant single-shot error-correcting code in four dimensions (Quantinuum Systems Lab, March 2025). To handle these complex error loops, Quantinuum co-developed a hybrid operating blueprint that allows a quantum core to run interleaved workflows directly alongside traditional classical accelerators (NVIDIA & Quantinuum, Architectural Integration of Quantum Processing Units in Heterogeneous Accelerated Datacenters, November 2025). The technical necessity of this hybrid pipeline explains the massive, synchronized market rallies behind semiconductor and memory giants like Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), Micron Technology (MU), and Western Digital/SanDisk (SNDK), whose architectures are actively solving the data-ingestion bottleneck of the hybrid loop. Classical deep learning is hitting an energy wall, and the integration of quantum processors provides a critical, power-efficient shortcut. To feed this pipeline, AMD's dense, multi-chiplet accelerator architectures are deployed to execute the intense, multi-threaded classical pre-processing and data filtering required to translate digital binary code into quantum gates (ENCCS Research Group, Distributed Quantum Computing Workflows with ColonyOS, March 2025). This rapid data translation places an unprecedented burden on the memory sub-system, driving the massive infrastructure demand for Micron’s ultra-high-bandwidth memory (HBM3E and HBM4 stacks) to serve as a real-time staging ground so that classical systems can continuously update parameters within Hybrid Quantum-Classical Neural Networks without breaking the execution flow (Alvarez, M. et al., Hybrid Quantum-Classical Neural Architecture Search, arXiv:2605.18345, May 2026). At the foundational layer, high-density flash storage fabrics from Western Digital and SanDisk represent the permanent data lakes required to hold historical information right next to these hybrid computing nodes, while simultaneously handling the massive computational overhead of running end-to-end Post-Quantum Cryptography frameworks to protect data at rest before "Q-Day" arrives (Université de Sherbrooke, Technical Barriers to Industrial-Scale Distributed Heterogeneous Computing, Qblox Excellence Center, March 2026). Ultimately, this entire convergence is orchestrated by the industry's primary infrastructure and processing backbone. High-performance classical layers engineered by Nvidia, utilizing hybrid programming environments like CUDA-Q, act as the universal operating system that allows standard GPU clusters to communicate directly with modular quantum nodes. When classical systems hit a highly complex mathematical bottleneck, the workload is offloaded via Cisco-style quantum switches to modular arrays like Xanadu’s Aurora or Quantinuum's trapped-ion processors to be calculated in parallel bursts. To prepare for this inevitable hybrid future, infrastructure giants like Dell and SMCI are expanding direct liquid-cooling platforms and ultra-high-density server chassis to handle the staggering data-ingestion and routing pipelines required before and after a quantum processor fires. Tech giants are not blindly building speculative data center shells for short-term software hype; they are systematically constructing the massive, power-heavy, liquid-cooled classical fortresses required to house, feed, and secure the distributed quantum supercomputing networks of the next decade. TLDR: all of the stocks mentioned ran this year because they are building ai/ quantum data centers a
Alright. All the doom and gloom has me looking at the port again tonight.

Since then I've sold out my RDDT and BN stakes and have invested more into the NGEN. Doing this to work through my thoughts and reassess tolerance real quick: |Ticker|YTD %|1Y|Owned Since| |:-|:-|:-|:-| |AMD|\+141.56 %|260.05 %|October 2021| |ATRL|\+0.86 %|\-5.28 %|September 2021| |GOOGL|\+8.19 %|\+95.13 % |Feb 2022| |MSFT|\-26.84 %|\-28.86 %|November 2021| |NGEN|\-65.18 %|\-28.12%|Various| |NVDA|\+2.84 %|\+ 23.85 %|October 2021| |RKLB|\+ 16.8 %|\+ 124.93 %|January 2025| So things have certainly gotten worse since I looked about three weeks ago. RKLB is +16% YTD instead of the +55% it was in June is probably the most notable change. What sucks is I missed its rise and fall because I haven't had time to pay attention. Definitely going to be a rough year if it continues like this. Last year was meteoric so I'm still not too pissed, but I miss January pre-dillutive offering on the NGEN. Also the MSFT is making me a tad sad. At this point I've held for nearly five years, and the gains all-time are 33%. I've made worse sales than selling it right now, so why am I so reluctant to let go? I may be overly sentimental, as I believe it was my third or fourth trade. Anyways, hopefully everyone else is doing well. Not sure what the next year will look like, but let's hope when all the traders get back from summer vacation that the strait is sorted out, inflation's on a downtrend, and AI produces profits.
I already lost money shorting AMD, after initially making it buying AMD at $5. It’s massively overvalued but I’m never touching a ticker even mentioned on this site ever again
