This 5-Minute Pitch was originally published on Seeking Alpha before the launch of the Hunting Alphas website. It is shared here to showcase my previous work and track record. New 5-Minute Pitches published on this site will not be disseminated anywhere else.
Elevator Pitch
- AMD's growth outlook is robust and driving meaningful market share gains. This is driven primarily by strong new products adoption by customers.

- The higher prices of new products and a cyclical demand upturn in the higher-margin Embedded business are gross margin improvement drivers for H2 FY25 and beyond.
- I posit that AMD's recent M&A activity, including ZT Systems and AI startups, enhances capabilities at attractive valuations and isn't aggressive, contrary to some bearish views.
- AMD stock valuations are near fair value, and the relative technicals don't give a clear bullish signal yet.
