AMD tonight great company, report should be good, would not buy in front of earnings though.  The semiconductors. as we all know, have undergone supply chain disruption. China keeps all the chips and screw everybody else. Do you really belive the semis are the only company's with sizable execution risk? Get real! Tonights AMD earnings might put that fear of execution risk in to the broader market.Its not priced in, that's for sure.

 

Also, I listened to Mohammed El Erian, on CNBC this morning. He is such a brilliant man you have to pay attention to what he says. He thinks it will be better if the FED hints at tapering tomorrow and have the market take a measured hit now, instead of breaking the news later on and upset the apple cart. I have to agree with him. (JMHO)

AMD as well as Intel have their own foundries, they don't rely on TSMC for wafers, however China holds the cards on REM so the world is at risk until we start mining for them again. The chip problem can be solved easily if we break away from relying on China for the rare earth materials.

Wrong. AMD sold their foundry business and rely 100% on others to manufacture for them.

.I stand corrected I did not know they sold off Global Foundries.  Shame....

What's easy? Starting a foundry that has success in yielding chips from wafers. Billions of transistors in single digit nanometer die size.  Not easy at all. SO yes a shame that they sold the fab and now they can't make enough video cards or X86 chips.

Guess I was wrong, the new go to word is bottlenecks,  sounds so much better than execution risk. That word risk just isn't in anyone's vocabulary any more.
