<AMD has 150 million shares outstanding. If 25 million MPUs throw off $20 of profit apiece, that's over $3 per share and the stock goes to $50.> Pretty simplistic view. You're assuming a lot of things here, most of them based on the Dresden fab ramp-up. Leave it up to AMD to screw up even "easy money" situations like the one you paint here. AMD definitely has the potential to hit $30, which is why I'm in. But a $3 potential EPS is kind of pushing optimism to the limit, especially since everything at AMD is pretty much taken quarter-by-quarter. One quarter they'll be well into the black, the next they'll find themselves in the red again thanks to some screw-up. Tenchusatsu
