just dropped my life savings into AMD

[reverse79]

I don't know where the top is. But I will tell you this.. I almost always buy on dips. My first investment ever was 5000 shares of Ford back in 2008. I bought 5000 at 1.63.. everyone was selling! Regardless.. I'm incredibly careful (maybe too careful with my money) and I have faith that AMD will take off. If not.. oh well!

and even on the dip , its still no guarantee


I got hosed on Under Armour....twice.

You are absolutely right. Dips are just as scary as the top. Everyone thinks they know the market but they have no clue.. including myself.

UA was incredibly enticing and I almost pulled the trigger on them... but too much of a pansy to invest in a clothing line.. unless its nike or something.

Hopefully you've evened out with them. If they drop to $10.00 or so I might take a dive.

Going all in on any stock is unwise in the extreme.

Didn't they get caught out with that security exploit for their CPUs...not as bad as Intel but then went into business with Intel for a joint CPU and GPU chipset????

Teaming up with Intel whose reputation is in the toilet. Why would you buy shares with these guys?

I dunno man just seems foolish tbh given the state of their rep

I honestly think the goal here was to go after Nvidia but these cpus have already been discontinued.. I think? Their action has not impacted my decision to buy AMD. I mean.. if a company like nvidia.. with a 9 billion dollar market cap can trade at 250.00 a share Im all in on AMD.

Though im still proud owner of rx 480, rx 460, 7970. got to help my stock holder bros some how

[Humungus]

AMD is trash but usually trash companies that were previously laggards spike at the end of bull runs. Garbage like FIT, GPRO, VRX, etc etc have all melted higher lately.

Even sure bets like Amazon and Apple are up way more than index funds. FWIW a lot of index funds are largely built on Amazon and Apple

[Redfish225]

How much did you invest?

Bout $3.50

[lsiberian]

lol? because it is gambling?

you're putting your money into a company that should perform for you. you bet on teams, fighters or players that should perform for you. If they don't, you lose money. : / And yes..upsets in the market happen just like sporting events.

The stock market is straight up gambling. There is no question about it. I have my play portfolio where I throw my loose change and then I have my long term investments... which is still a gamble. The safest place for your money is in coffee cans.

In respect to AMD: they're a company that has amazing cash flow per share, they have a wonderful and brilliant leader and they're making a lot of noise in the tech industry. Their navi gpu is on par with Nvidia's newest GTX line. Plus, I like them as a company. I'll be completely honest, I took my oil winnings and threw them into AMD and ETFS.

I see no real risk in AMD. It's not in my group because my Dad works there so my families wealth already has a salary tied to it, but they got a huge infusion of great engineers like my dad from his former company NXP doing the dumbest layoff I've ever seen. Getting IT talent is hard and AMD pounced well IMO.

[PowersKenny]

Say

im in a vanguard global equity fund, chits good yo

. Listen *******, it's all fun and

games when the market is at highs..you know nothing when it drops call your mommy

Want me resume little man, let's see..your 5 k invested is not my $500k...go to earn a degree and learn before you say ****..mmigjt go for the bitcoin ****gos or just get a job and learn you *******

AMD is a really interesting stock. NVidia produces the best GPU's for cryptocurrency mining, but AMD is second best. For months and months you couldn't find a high end AMD GPU from a retailer. If cryptocurrency flourishes, AMD has the potential for long term exponential growth.

I was really temped to invest in AMD a couple months ago when it dipped below $10, but I hate the volatility of cheaper stocks. I sure wish I would've because that would've been an awesome swing trade. It's gapped up over 80% over the past two months.

I wouldn't invest in it now because it's way too extended. Good luck OP, I hope it works out for you.

I'm happy with my investment Found this tidbit for AMD/Samsung as well..

Samsung reports mass production of 'industry's first' 16Gb, 64GB DDR4 RDIMM.
Samsung Electronics (SSNLF) announced that it is the first in the industry to begin volume production of modules containing a 16 gigabit monolithic 64 gigabyte DDR4 memory solution. The new registered dual in-line memory module, or RDIMM, is designed primarily for use in enterprise and cloud server applications, the company said. The HPE (HPE) ProLiant DL385 Gen10 server based on the AMD (AMD) EPYC 7000 processors will be the first major server platform in the industry qualified to use 64GB RDIMMs based on the new Samsung 16Gb technology, providing up to two terabytes of memory in a two-processor, 32-DIMM configuration with the 16Gb, 64GB solution, Samsung stated.

The other technology this company has in the pipeline is pretty remarkable. I have faith my money is in a good place. I could be wrong but for now I'm staying put for a long time.
