risks
$Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.US)$ One of the biggest risks for us is a strong rival $NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$It is. The company's growth rate in the data center business lags behind NVIDIA. Furthermore, NVIDIA has the advantage of winning first and foremost in the software layer, and has established more partnerships with both cloud and enterprise customers. Furthermore, NVIDIA is prepared to share AI growth with an ecosystem including servers, memory, and AI software vendors. As a result of these, the differences between the two companies in the AI field will widen further, and there is a high possibility that AMD's long-term growth potential will eventually be impaired.

Also, there are analysts who think that the company's stock is currently overvalued, especially against the backdrop of recent heightened market volatility. The analyst sees that the company's stock price is currently overvalued, considering that AMD's AI chips are lagging behind rival NVIDIA, that various major cloud computing companies are investing in their own custom AI chips, and that the company's insiders have sold the company's shares over the past 12 months.
Although the stock price has skyrocketed 60 times, it has now been drastically left behind by NVIDIA!How should we look at AMD's earnings report?
