Not sure if this has been posted ...

From briefing.com

2:05PM ET Advanced Micro (AMD 9.22 -0.58) is halted. There has been
recent speculation that Micron (MU 20.91 -1.38) will purchase AMD.

Another possibility is that AMD warns. It'll be a big mover one way or the
other very soon....

I suspect that this announcement means that Fab35 is not going in the Austin area, however...

Not necessarily. The two being closed are older fabs.

combjelly,

It has been handled VERY poorly.

No need for a mid day halt.

It could have been spun as a positive, but completely fumbled.

On same day as GTW news leads folks to worry about another shoe dropping.

If there is bad news and they must know it by now - they should have gotten it out in one shot with an after hours conf call.

But hey what do u expect from these clowns.

Kash
