AMD stock price slides in premarket as forecast hints at softer quarter, spotlight stays on China chip sales
AMD shares fell 7.6% in premarket trading Wednesday after the company forecast a sequential revenue decline and projected first-quarter sales near $9.8 billion. The outlook included $100 million in MI308 AI chip sales to China, with management citing U.S. export controls as a key uncertainty. Data-center revenue rose 39% to $5.4 billion last quarter, but investors focused on AMD’s 55% adjusted gross margin versus Nvidia’s higher target.
