AMD has a stronger growth story than Intel, particularly in data-center CPUs and AI accelerators. Its Q2 data-center revenue surged 107% year over year to $6.7 billion, demonstrating that demand is translating into real business growth. Its expanding partnerships with Meta, Microsoft and Anthropic also strengthen its longer-term AI opportunity.
However, I wouldn't expect an explosive rally. With AMD trading at a premium valuation, simply beating the $13.08 billion revenue estimate may not be enough. Investors need convincing Q4 guidance, stronger AI accelerator shipments and evidence that Helios can generate meaningful revenue in 2027.
My view: AMD has better fundamentals than Intel, but expectations are already high. A solid earnings beat combined with optimistic guidance could trigger a relief rally. I'm cautiously bullish, favouring a 5%–10% rebound rather than chasing a 10%+ spike.
