5 November 2025

This roundup focuses on developments on Wednesday, November 5, 2025.

At a glance (real‑time): As of 19:53 UTC, AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) traded around $258.20, up roughly 3.3% from Tuesday’s close, after swinging between an intraday low of $235.51 and high of $259.53. Earlier in premarket, the stock dipped on broader tech jitters before reversing higher. [1]

Why AMD is moving today

  • Earnings momentum, mixed knee‑jerk reaction. Late Tuesday, AMD reported record Q3 revenue of $9.246B (+36% Y/Y) and non‑GAAP EPS of $1.20, while guiding Q4 revenue to ~$9.6B (±$300M) and non‑GAAP gross margin ~54.5%. Shares initially wobbled on valuation worries but stabilized Wednesday as investors digested the beat‑and‑raise. [2]
  • Fresh analyst catalyst.UBS raised its AMD price target to $300 and reiterated a Buy, citing stronger visibility in data‑center demand and upcoming catalysts. [3]
  • Policy overhang from China.Beijing moved to bar foreign AI chips in state‑funded data centers, a headline that could affect U.S. GPU suppliers including AMD; markets weighed the long‑term exposure even as AMD’s base case does not include MI308 China revenue. [4]
  • Macro tone improving intraday. After a tech rout Tuesday, U.S. stocks rebounded into Wednesday afternoon; AMD was among notable gainers as sentiment steadied. [5]

Earnings recap: what AMD just told the market

AMD’s official release highlighted broad‑based strength across compute and AI:

  • Revenue:$9.246B (+36% Y/Y; +20% Q/Q)
  • Non‑GAAP EPS:$1.20
  • Segment color:Data Center revenue $4.3B (+22% Y/Y) led by 5th‑Gen EPYC CPUs and Instinct MI350 series; Client + Gaming revenue $4.0B (Client +46% Y/Y; Gaming +181% Y/Y).
  • China note:No Q3 revenue from MI308 shipments to China; Q4 outlook also excludes MI308 China shipments.
  • Q4 guide: Revenue ~$9.6B (midpoint), non‑GAAP GM ~54.5%. [6]

A complementary late‑evening summary emphasized the above‑consensus guide and sustained AI demand, even as investors debate how much is already priced in. [7]

Street reaction: targets and talking points

  • UBS to $300 (Buy): The firm sees a clearer runway in data‑center and identifies potential near‑term catalysts into year‑end. Multiple outlets flagged the target hike early Wednesday. [8]
  • Premarket wobble, then recovery: Financial media tracked an early ~4% premarket drop for AMD alongside broader AI‑stock profit taking—followed by an intraday rebound. [9]
  • Broader tech narrative: Wednesday coverage framed AMD’s post‑print trade inside a larger debate about AI‑spending valuations and a “show‑me” phase after a torrid multi‑month rally. [10]

The China headline: what it might mean

Reuters reported new Chinese guidance requiring domestically made AI chips in state‑funded data centers (with nuanced rules depending on project status). For AMD, China has been a constrained market for advanced AI accelerators; the company’s own outlook doesn’t count on MI308 shipments to China, which could cushion near‑term model risk even as the policy shifts the long‑run demand mix. [11]

Market context on Nov. 5

  • Indices: After opening nerves, major U.S. benchmarks rebounded Wednesday, helping AMD and other recent decliners stabilize. [12]
  • Morning tape: Pre‑open rundowns noted AMD’s after‑hours dip and the broader AI‑trade reassessment following Tuesday’s selloff. [13]

Key numbers for traders today

  • Live price: $258.20 (+3.3%) at 19:53 UTC
  • Intraday range: $235.51 – $259.53
  • Prior close: $250.05

What to watch next

  • Forward commentary & catalysts. Street research on Wednesday flagged potential late‑year catalysts—including incremental hyperscaler updates—that could shape AMD’s AI‑hardware narrative into 2026. [14]
  • Macro & policy. Any follow‑ups or clarifications to China’s AI‑chip guidance will remain in focus for U.S. GPU vendors. [15]

  • Prediction markets trim odds of Supreme Court backing Trump's tariffs to about 30%
    November 5, 2025, 6:26 PM EST. Traders on prediction markets cut the odds that the Supreme Court will back President Donald Trump's tariffs to about 30% after justices signaled skepticism about the administration's sweeping powers under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. On Kalshi, contracts betting the court would rule in Trump's favor slipped from roughly 50% to 30%, while a similar contract on Polymarket fell to about 30% from over 40%. The pullback followed questions from justices about the legality of the tariffs and the scope of executive authority, reinforcing market view that the justices may curb the administration's trade powers despite earlier wins in lower courts. A ruling remains uncertain as the court continues arguments.
  • West African Cocoa Crop Optimism Weighs on Prices; BCOM Inflows Loom
    November 5, 2025, 6:22 PM EST. December ICE NY cocoa was down about 3.3% and ICE London cocoa off nearly 4% as traders price in a bumper West Africa crop. Ivory Coast reports indicate trees are healthy and beans drying well, while Ghana pods are developing quickly. The outlook is reinforced by Mondelez's note that Ivory Coast's main crop pod count is 7% above the five-year average, suggesting stronger supply this season. Harvests have just begun, and farmers remain optimistic about quality. The potential boost from a January BCOM index inclusion could attract passive inflows, with Peak Trading Research estimating roughly $1.9 billion of cocoa futures buying over the next 80 days. Demand remains a counterweight, with grindings soft in Asia and Europe, and inventories at multi-month lows in US ports.
  • Forget Market Timing: The Power of Compounding for Long-Term Wealth
    November 5, 2025, 6:20 PM EST. Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world, and the message is simple: rely on compounding and time in the market rather than trying to time it. Long-term investors can turn small, steady gains into meaningful wealth, as shown by the S&P 500 and Nasdaq histories and examples from Larry Fink and Jim Cramer. From Jan 2000 to 2026, an 8% annualized return with dividends beats cash and money markets, especially after factoring in inflation. Understand real returns vs nominal returns: with 2% inflation, cash yields may be negative in real terms. The key takeaway: stay invested, focus on time in the market and the power of compounding to grow wealth.
  • Rivian Valuation Under Scrutiny: Do Partnership News and DCF Signals Align with True Worth?
    November 5, 2025, 6:14 PM EST. Rivian's stock has swung on partnership news and strategy shifts as investors weigh its true value. While the shares rose about 18% over the past year and slipped 8% recent month, valuation remains cautious: a recent check assigns Rivian just 1/6 on undervaluation. The piece walks through a DCF view showing negative free cash flow today but a target intrinsic value around $14.94, implying undervaluation of roughly 16%. It also hints at a P/S perspective since the company is not yet profitable, plus discussions of production targets and strategic partnerships that might unlock upside or add risk. In short: the market is pricing in growth while discounting the path to profitability; investors should study the underlying assumptions and risks.
  • Tariffs face an uncertain future after Supreme Court hearing: potential market impacts
    November 5, 2025, 6:12 PM EST. Markets are bracing for a Supreme Court decision that could reshape tariff policy and ripple through inflation, rates, and the dollar. The hearing on whether the White House can use the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose tariffs leaves a wide range of outcomes: a full reversal with refunds, preserved tariffs, or a middle ground. If tariffs are struck down, some sectors could benefit; if upheld, protected industries like steel and aluminum may win. Traders assign low odds to upholding duties (about 26% on Polymarket). A ruling could affect near-term growth, Fed policy and currency moves, depending on the administration's next steps. The U.S. collected about $195 billion in customs duties in fiscal 2025, with potential refunds near $100 billion under consideration.
