Quick Win by the Algorithm

Advanced Micro Devices (AMD)

On April 22nd, 2016, the I Know First algorithm gave a bullish signal of 45.53 for the ticker AMD with a predictability indicator of 0.38. As the algorithm predicted, AMD experienced a quick win of 122.90% in only 3 months.

Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (AMD) operates as a semiconductor company worldwide. The company’s products include mainly x86 microprocessor as an accelerated processing unit (APU) and graphic process units (GPU). It also provides microprocessors for desktop PCs.

A senior analyst at I Know First closely monitored Advanced Micro Devices Inc. since February of this year. Our analyst created a SWOT analysis of AMD and predicted its price increase (along with the algorithm) in February. He continued to track AMD and also predicted further stock increases in April and early July. All of these forecasts were accurate as AMD continuously increased throughout 2016.

There are several reasons AMD rebounded as is now doing very well. On April 22nd AMD licensed X86 server chip designs to be used in China to protect intellectual property and raise security in servers. This deal netted AMD 293 million dollars which boosted their stock tremendously. Surprising 2nd quarter profits have continued to push AMD stock to new highs.  AMD chips are also continuing to be in high demand allowing AMD to sell many chips each year. CEO Lisa Su can be thanked for a lot of the innovation and the renewed vitality of this company. It looks as if AMD may be able to officially leave the rut they are stuck in and start reporting continued quarterly profits by the end of this year.
