AMD stock price climbs after Intel flags AI server chip strain — what investors watch next

New York, Jan 23, 2026, 16:25 EST — After-hours Shares of Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.O) climbed roughly 2.3% to $259.65 in after-hours on Friday. The Nasdaq stock swung between $252.01 and $266.76, with volume hitting around 47 million shares. This shift is crucial because investors are zeroing in on chip supply—not just demand—as the key to which companies will lead the next wave of AI investment. When major buyers can’t secure enough processors from a single supplier, they often pivot their orders fast, which then impacts quarterly guidance. Intel (INTC.O) weighed on sentiment late Thursday after reporting difficulties in meeting

Hang Seng slips as tech drags again, while chip and AI names buck the trend in Hong Kong

Hong Kong, Jan 16, 2026, 16:47 HKT Hong Kong stocks edged down Friday, slipping after an initial bounce. Drops among big internet players and cyclical sectors weighed on the market, even as semiconductor and AI-related stocks showed gains. The shifts are significant as investors juggle two competing factors: new regulatory risks in China’s consumer internet sector and a surge of capital flowing into chips and AI companies. Hong Kong finds itself caught in the middle, serving as a key listing venue for both areas. The Hang Seng slipped 71 points by midday, with mainland investors offloading around HK$600 million via
