This is exactly why I refuse to make payments on a brand new car, buy kicks that costs more than $50, and I never trick off on women. Gotta save as much as possible. My worst fear is being :flabbynsick: and on the streets begging for change.
that's actually what you're supposed to do.....

I look at it this way.
They eased off the tablet markets due to the shyt being saturated anyway, and are specializing in SoCs, much like the ones they got in the Xbox one, PS4, and Wii-U.
Add to the fact this spring will be the drop of a new family of GPUs, some business class chips as well, their new Carrizo APU, and this past september the launch of a Firepro and consumer graphics card in India. 2016 comes their new big project Skybridge, with an x86 arm CPU AND their next big Consumer CPU "Zen".

I'm a geek for this shyt, breh, and at $4 a share, at least when I last looked, I have faith within 5 years they will have a stock resurgence.
I may be wrong, but when I saw the tech they have on the roadmap for medical equipment, I was sold. Of the big chipmakers, they have the most wiggle-room to make moves in established
and emerging markets, though it may take time to come to fruition.

Any threats from Nvidia and other competitors in the same space?

Any threats from Nvidia and other competitors in the same space?
Absolutely. For instance in the consumer graphics space, Nvidia dropped a line of graphics cards, Maxwell V2, that caused a collapse in graphics card prices due to
how much power came out of such a power efficient architecture. Add that Graphics cards have stalled in die shrinks and are stuck at 28nm for the time being, efficiency
is a consumer's catnip right now, especially when considering performance per dollar. An advantage AMD has in the consumer space right now is they are introducing standards
like Mantle and Freesync as Open standards, whereas Nvidia is closed sourcing everything. AMD also started partnerships with heavy-hitters like Samsung for manufacturing in the
Global Founderies fabrication plant so AMD can FINALLY make some headway towards Intel, who has had the CPU market in a chokehold since about 2006.

For APUs, no other company is on AMD's level, as they are on track to make them 25x more power efficient by 2020, giving you desktop level performance in mobile devices, with plenty
of battery life. The AMD APUs also sport desktop level performance for graphics (good for imaging aps, video and photo editing, and gaming) that are miles ahead of Intel's incarnations.

For Arm, the leading mobile CPU for low power and high performance, AMD partnered up and are integrating x86 functions, and hoping to at some point reach a symbiotic chip that can
do x86 and Arm instruction sets on one die.

:whoa:I know I know,I'll shut the fukk up now. We are just looking at a company that have been losing for years due to lack of funds that the competitors have. AMD promoted an engineer,
Lisa Su, to CEO, after having a "marketing" guy in Rory Read for a few years. They are on track to have a HUGE resurgence, breh.

OP I see is a perpetually negative/pessimistic poster.

Nothing matters to you other than starting your own business, we get it.

Take your gloom and doom somewhere else. You're like the Reinscarf of business related matters.
