AMD's stock fell 8.2% in premarket trading despite reporting second-quarter revenue of $11.54 billion, beating analyst expectations of $11.28 billion. The company's growth was driven by a 107% increase in data center sales, fueled by CPU and GPU demand linked to the AI boom. However, earnings fell short of more optimistic estimates, causing investor caution despite AMD's strong position in the AI chip market and a 132% stock gain in 2026. CEO Lisa Su highlighted expanding AI-driven demand and raised semiconductor industry forecasts, expecting the market to reach $2 trillion annually by 2028, with $1.4 trillion from AI accelerators like GPUs.
