This may true but it probably is too simple a theory as the future earnings flow can only be an estimate of the future earnings. There is likely a central value to the estimate and a distribution of estimates depending on how and by whom they done (an in what mood).

I agree with you that when AMD was $48 the fundamentals appeared no better than today. Perhpas it would be be better to think of what is going on as not an irrational $24 today but as just the end of the distribution of values that may be appropriate for the stock (that is $36 +-$12).
