BMW, most investors in AMD know exactly what they are getting themselves into. It's a high-risk investment with high rewards if you are both careful and lucky. The comparisons to INTC are just an AMDroid's pipe dream, because more often than not, the movements of both stocks are tied together. Sure, AMD might rise faster than INTC, but we've also seen AMD fall faster than INTC. Tenchusatsu

bmw re: it will never change the relative valuations that Wall Street has put on these two companies. I am not trying to re: amd is a much better buy than Intel. yes and no, I personally was always of the opinion that amd may or may not be a better investment depending on the risk profile of the investors. The "ratings" is like "MHz" and "performance" :-)) ratings give you some useful info but should not be considered as true "recomendations". re:<reality sets in, and Intel remains the investor's choice. judging by the ratings there is not much overall difference. Regards -Albert ps I actually came amazingly close to predicting the future few years back. Folks on Intel thread thought that I am insane and even some that I am trying to manipulate the market :-)) by my grim predictions. The problem why I can not take a credit for it because I was describing one of the possible scenarios and intelabees took as a prediction <gggg>

you can argue distribution functions all you want, but it will never change the relative valuations that Wall Street has put on these two companies. True, what we argue here will not change Wall Street's valuations. But by arguing here we might be able to predict when those valuations change and make some money from it. Which is what we are mostly interested in, I think. Unlike Intel, it seems, who have stopped squandering their billions on defunct companies and are squandering them on retaining market share. Not even increasing it, it seems. The relative valuations might change sooner than you think, IMHO.
