It would be the perfect play for some of those AMD profits while going short. What could be sexier than owning more AMD stock at the end of it all?

      If AMD represents a significant % of your net worth, I'd have a plan. If it's small change, then no worries.

      This US bull market isn't going to last forever.
      Might sell at 100. Biggest risk to that is merger/takeover by somebody big (Samsung?), at whatever current share price will be at the time.

      My breakeven (at current rate of USD/GBP) is around 19 dollars (roughly).

      If it drops to 19 or less then I’ll buy more (and this time not just with ISA money).

        No. The biggest risk to that is the US announces an end to money printing.

          Biggest risk to stock market is bank interest rates getting back to 5%, then lots of folks who need regular income (pension funds) will stay out of shares, my guess is that we'll never see such interest rates anytime soon, sadly.

          In 2021-22 AMD should start paying dividends, they need to become nicely yielding stock, 3-4% per annum at least, they are well positioned to become VERY profitable company, which is nice.

            IF, and that's a very big if, AMD manages to do to NVIDIA what it did to Intel but in terms of performance in GPUs, then it would become a very very profitable company.

              That would be nice. Nonetheless, rising interest rates did not cause the stock market crash in 2008. Quite the contrary.

              Money tightening will be wot dos it. Dollar will increase like stupid, people not be able to sell stocks quick enough, and gold prices crash. Mark me words.

                Don’t care about gold.

                AMD is one of few companies that should make very good money very soon to pay nice dividends - just like Intel does, only Intel got 10 times staff.

                  AMD is one of few companies that should make very good money very soon to pay nice dividends - just like Intel does, only Intel got 10 times staff and 80% of the world's computers using their processors.

                  You missed a bit.

                    Holly smokes, since me AMD/Ether post, you could have had 10% more AMD stock already

                      80% figure is very large market for AMD sales, where as Intel got 20% remaining market to capture - upside for AMD is excellent, obviously so that they actually have competitive uArch and advantage on process side.
