AMD -15%, SMCI +15%🤔 Will QCOM & ARM Earnings Diverge?

Advanced Micro Devices fell 15% despite 30%+ YoY revenue growth and an EPS beat of ~16%, as Q1 guidance at $9.8B landed below the most bullish $10B+ expectations. Data center revenue hit a record $5.4B. Super Micro Computer surged 15% after reporting FY26 Q2 revenue of $12.7B (vs. $5.7B last year) and adjusted EPS of $0.69, reinforcing near-term AI server demand. How do you view AMD’s guidance and stock? With SMCI accelerating, is it hitting the bottom? Will AMD fill the gap at $165?

ARM to beat and Qualcomm to miss

Advanced Micro Devices: Guidance in Context Guidance Summary AMD reported above-consensus revenue and EPS for its latest quarter, with data-centre revenue of around $5.4 billion.  For Q1 2026, guidance was roughly $9.5 billion to $10.1 billion (midpoint of about $9.8 billion), slightly above Street expectations but down sequentially from Q4.  Market Reaction Investors focused on the sequential decline in anticipated quarterly sales as a signal that the AI hardware build-out, while intact, might be normalising after a peak cadence of orders. The stock’s downward move reflects this recalibration rather than a fundamental earnings miss.  The guidance, though slightly below the most bullish forecasts, was nonetheless in line with analyst estimates and represented a conservative

AMD's Reality Check: Why Strong Earnings Couldn't Prevent a Selloff Semiconductor giant $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$   released its Q4 earnings after the bell, triggering a sell-off that sent shares tumbling more than 8% in after-hours trading. What exactly happened? Let's take a closer look. Three Things to Watch Q1 Guidance Misses Expectations; The Performance Unlock Awaits the MI450 in H2 At first glance, AMD's Q4 2025 metrics seem to beat market expectations significantly. However, once you strip out the revenue from the China-specific MI308, the beat is actually quite modest. Furthermore, AMD's guidance for Q1 2026 failed to show the kind of sequential surge seen in AI memory stocks like $Micron Techno

Interesting that AMD dropped, despite decent results being announced. I guessed it gets compared to nvda, whether it wants to or not, and the most valuable company in the world puts anyone to shame. I do not believe that amd really looks at themselves to be an equal competitor to nvda though. They lack the first mover advantage, and are focusing on slightly different fields. I think amd could also look to consolidate the market for consumer facing products, specifically the pc parts where nvda looked dreadful as the days passed, before heavily pivoting towards AI. Amd could really anchor itself now and in the future as the brand that kept its focus and eke out a means of being a legitimate brand, even if the AI bubble pops.

AMD: Jump | SMCI: Jump | QCOM: Drop | ARM: Drop Reason: I believe AMD's AI demand remains strong enough to support a stock jump; however, Qualcomm might experience a pullback due to the weak mobile market.
The recent earnings reports from Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Super Micro Computer (SMCI) have indeed led to a divergence in their stock performances, with AMD falling 7% and SMCI surging 7%. Let's break down the key points from their earnings reports and analyze the implications for their stocks. AMD's earnings report showed impressive 30%+ year-over-year (YoY) revenue growth and a 16% earnings per share (EPS) beat. However, the company's Q1 guidance of 9.8billionfellshortofthemostbullishexpectationsof 10 billion+, leading to a 7% decline in its stock price. Notably, AMD's data center revenue reached a record $5.4 billion, indicating strong demand for its products in this segment. On the other hand, SMCI reported a significant surge in revenue, with FY26 Q2 revenue of 12.7bi

AMD Shares Drop 5% as First Quarter Revenue Outlook Miss Some Estimates $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$   shares declined more than 5% in extended trading Tuesday after the company's revenue outlook missed some of the analysts' estimates.  Revenue for the first quarter of 2026 is forecast at about $9.8 billion, plus or minus $300 million, including about $100 million of AMD Instinct MI308 sales to China, the company said in its earnings release. Analysts' estimates range from $8.32 billion to $10.23 billion, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.  For the fourth quarter ended December, revenue rose to a record $10.3 billion, boosted by shipments to China. While that surpassed the $9.65 billion aver

🌟🌟🌟AMD $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ is currently experiencing a post earnings volatility crush.  Despite reporting record revenue of USD 10.3 billion and beating EPS estimates at USD 1.53, AMD shares fell 5.75% in the after hours trading due to a projected revenue decline for Q1 2026. For those traders who believe in Lisa Su's 55% gross margin guidance and server CPU sell out through 2026 will lead to a swift rebound , a Bull Call Spread is more effective than buying outright  calls during a volatility crush. Set Up: Buy a USD 230 Call and sell a USD 250 call.  This caps your upside but significantly lowers your break even point. @Tiger_comments

Can AMD, SMCI, QCOM & ARM strike back to outrun their Memory peers? AMD: The Measured Retreat:DROP Despite a beat & raise performance from Lisa Su, AMD faces the classic perfection problem.  After a massive runup, the bar was set so high it requires a miracle to clear it. Expect a slight pullback as AMD catches its breath. SMCI: The Volatile Rebound: JUMP After a brutal year of margin anxiety, SMCI is finally showing that Volume is King.  With AI server demand still insatiable, any sign of fiscal discipline will send SMCI back toward the stratosphere. QCOM: The Gravity Check: DROP Qualcomm is currently fighting a 2 front war: stagnating mobile phone  sales & a transition to AI PCs.  Unless QCOM reveal a surprise strategy, gravity may win this round.

And: jump smci: jump qcom: jump arm:jump Reason: silicon demand is high for the entire sector with manufacturing as a key constraint on the sector for volumes.

Semiconductors have clearly shifted from last year’s AI storytelling to a hard execution phase. Capital is chasing memory names, while logic and architecture players are under intense scrutiny on real orders, margins, and guidance. This earnings week is less about vision and more about proof. My predictions:AMD: Jump | SMCI: Jump | QCOM: Drop | ARM: Drop I expect $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ to benefit from solid AI accelerator momentum and data center demand, enough to drive a post-arnings bounce. $SUPER MICRO COMPUTER INC(SMCI)$ , despite past issues, could see a relief rally if management shows backlog conversion

AMD, SMCI, QCOM, ARM: all jump I don't think every company should really try to go all in on the ai hype... they are big names for a reason. If they choose to abandon what made them successful (like Qcom and their strength in the mobile phone industry), they are going to collapse spectacularly when the bubble bursts. Simply put, there really is nothing wrong with solidifying your base, and if you can properly branch out into the ai, then by all means, go for it. But if you have to cut off whatever you are doing well, in order to cash in on the hype (looking at tsla and their insistence on doing "ai" and trying con people into investing continually), then that is poor long term planning. I will be more than happy to invest in Qcom if they still place a heavy focus on their bread and butt
