AMD Started With a Buy Rating by Investment Bank

Investment bank Seaport Global recently started coverage of chip maker AMD (MAD) with a $110 price target and a Buy rating. Seaport is upbeat about AMD's ability to gain market share and its execution.

Surpassing Intel (INTC) and a Viable Challenger to Nvidia (NVDA)

AMD recently overtook Intel in the data center space, due to its strong execution, according to Seaport.

What's more, AMD can challenge NVDA in the AI chip sector, the firm stated.

AMD's AI chips are competitive with those of NVDA, but AMD hasn't built related software and services offerings that are comparable to those of NVDA. Still, AMD is working on developing these systems, according to Seaport.

Assessing AMD's Outlook in AI

AMD's AI business is likely to grow slowly and steadily, Seaport believes.

The chip maker should focus on adhering to its plans on the AI front, rather than seeking to boost the revenue generated by its AI offerings in the shorter term, the investment bank believes.
