AMD’s Quiet Marvell Stake Puts AI Chip Investors on Alert

Marvell Technology surged close to 10% by late morning in New York after a regulatory filing revealed Advanced Micro Devices owned 65,516 shares in the chipmaker at the end of March. It’s a relatively modest stake, but the disclosure grabbed attention given Marvell’s AI data-center hardware profile. According to the filing, the holding was worth $6.49 million at the time. At Marvell’s late-morning level of $180.76, the shares would fetch roughly $11.8 million—if AMD hadn’t changed its position.

Alibaba’s Earnings Test Is Whether AI Can Pay for the Delivery Fight

Alibaba Group’s U.S.-listed American depositary receipts, the NYSE-traded proxy for the Chinese company, were quoted at $136.15 in early premarket, up 1.02%, after closing Tuesday at $134.78, down 1.84%. That is the first read on the stock today: buyers are not gone, but the chart still carries the damage from pre-earnings risk cutting. Google Finance showed Tuesday’s low at $133.82 and a 52-week high of $192.67, so the rebound starts from a bruised level, not a fresh breakout.
