Advanced Micro Devices shares dropped nearly 7% in premarket trading Wednesday after the chipmaker projected first-quarter revenue below its record fourth-quarter figure. AMD forecast about $9.8 billion, plus or minus $300 million, factoring in a $390 million lift from China-bound Instinct MI308 AI chip sales under a U.S. license.
