The best part of being the number two player in the market is that analyst and investors will always be skeptical of your results. This leads to increased volatility in stock price, with the price going higher than it should on good results and lower than it should on poor results.

AMD is in this position now. They are lagging Intel on the main stream performance front, though nobody ever needs that kind of performance (who cares about 200 fps vs. 180 fps, both exceed the visual acuity of the human eye). Consequently AMD's stock is in the toilet and likely headed lower -- at least until the quad core stuff comes out. I see this as a potential buying opportunity, probably around August of this year. In the meantime I wouldn't own either AMD or Intel, as the summer is typically unkind to semi stocks.
