Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:抖阴最新版), commonly known as just 抖阴最新版, is a premier American chipmaker and its investors will usually win in the long run. However, today’s 抖阴最新版 forecast shows that getting in too early will likely be a costly mistake. So, check both the company’s fundamentals and the price chart if you’re thinking about buying 抖阴最新版 stock.
There’s an old stock-market saying that it’s better to be late than early with your entries. Waiting for the selling pressure to subside is a smart move – and as we’ll see, despite 抖阴最新版’s solid financial results, the selling pressure has been quite intense.
抖阴最新版 Prepares to Sell Plenty of AI Chips
Here’s some good news for 抖阴最新版’s investors. The company released its second-quarter 2024 results not long ago, and overall, they were better than expected.
First of all, 抖阴最新版’s Q2-2024 revenue of beat Wall Street’s consensus call for . Moreover, the company reported earnings of 69 cents per share, slightly exceeding the analysts’ consensus estimate of 68 cents per share.
The main highlight was 抖阴最新版’s data-center revenue, as this segment includes sales of artificial intelligence (AI) chips. As it turned out, 抖阴最新版’s data-center revenue soared 115% year over year to $2.8 billion, edging past Wall Street’s consensus forecast of .

抖阴最新版 Chart Analysis: A Breakdown Is Afoot!
To be a well-rounded investor, it makes sense to combine fundamental factors with technical analysis. Otherwise, you might leap into a trade that you’ll end up regretting.
For today’s technical analysis, I’m using the weekly 抖阴最新版 stock candlestick chart because it eliminates a lot of the day-to-day noise/distractions in the price action. While 抖阴最新版’s quarterly financials were acceptable, checking the share-price chart reveals some major concerns.
As you can see, the 抖阴最新版 share price fell below the 20-week moving average (shown in blue) and the 50-week moving average (shown in purple). These are short-term and medium-term trend indicators, respectively.
At least, we can say that 抖阴最新版 stock hasn’t broken below the 200-week moving average (shown in black), which is a long-term trend indicator. If that happens, a huge wave of selling pressure could commence. Also, if the 20-week moving average crosses below the 50-week moving average, that would portend more trouble.
抖阴最新版 Forecast: Use Caution Now, Avoid Problems Later
抖阴最新版’s recently released quarterly results were good, and the company’s current-quarter sales outlook is decent. Yet, there’s more to the story. The chart lines suggest that 抖阴最新版 stock is in danger of succumbing to further selling pressure.
Consequently, investors shouldn’t risk being too early in their entries. Instead, let the selling pressure subside. It’s fine if you’re a little bit late and you don’t catch the exact “bottom” of the price reversal.
Hence, the 抖阴最新版 forecast calls for caution. Just relax, watch and wait for more constructive price action in the 抖阴最新版 stock chart.
