Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:¶¶Òõ×îаæ) stock fell 6% yesterday. But I’ll argue today that it’s not through any specific fault of its own. My long-term prognosis for ¶¶Òõ×îаæ stock is still optimal. Short term, we can remain on guard, but there aren’t any internal issues that need fixing. Firs, Thursday was a painful day for all of Wall Street not just ¶¶Òõ×îаæ. Wednesday’s jubilation after the FOMC meeting, turned into a bull funeral. The bears came back with a vengeance and completely demolished investors the next day.

Secondly, the chip sector is already reeling from shortages and backlogs. The effects of locking down the world for Covid-19 still linger. The 2020 disruption has caught up with the manufacturers and is creating serious bottlenecks. The tech sector is feeling this more than most other industries. Regardless, ¶¶Òõ×îаæ has managed to compensate and adapt judging by the reports so far.

Supply Chain Issues Are Partly to Blame

Despite the abysmal sourcing conditions, ¶¶Òõ×îаæ has continued to deliver strong results. Management reported earnings this week and the stock rallied for good reason. ¶¶Òõ×îаæ grew sales 71% and earnings 117%, leaving no doubt over the quality of the team. The drop yesterday merely brings ¶¶Òõ×îаæ back to its pre-earnings base.

With such blowout numbers, the opinions are almost unanimously positive. I found one price target downgrade, but , so it’s not an issue. According to , ¶¶Òõ×îаæ needs to rally more than 40% before it reaches its average price target.

This month there are challenges from the Federal Reserve fears. There is also the matter of the old Wall Street adage of sell in May and go away. But, in the long term, these are mere temporary hiccups. There are technical challenges as long as it’s under $102 per share. But there are support zones below and would find footing with the markets.

Meanwhile, the downside now creates opportunities for new investors. Under the leadership of Lisa Su ¶¶Òõ×îаæ stock continues to shine. The financial metrics are beyond reproach from all aspects. Although

Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) is still larger and Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) much flashier, ¶¶Òõ×îаæ is a star.

Management more than tripled revenues and net income in just five years. Regardless, ¶¶Òõ×îаæ managed to hold its valuation at a reasonable level. In fact, it is 30% cheaper than its rival NVDA. Even from an absolute basis it’s on par with similar fast growing companies.
