Great... with everything this company has going for it and its price-earnings ratio just dropped below 6 (according to my real-time quotes).
AMD may as well start selling fried chicken.


Call me naive, but what's to prevent someone from trying to buy the company out at these firesale prices? I think Motorola might be an excellent suitor. How can the company mount a defense to protect its shareholders who bought at much higher prices?

This is incredible - price to book is actually approaching 1! (I use marketguide.com for financials, check out the 10/01 balance sheet).

Is this absolutely nuts or what? With most companies I know of, the CEO or the CFO maintains an excellent relationship with the analyst community. If nothing else, atleast a good relationship with their own investment banker! Who is AMD's banker?

This is very, very painful.
