AMD sees Trump’s trade war as an “opportunity” and promises to be “competitive in high-end graphics”

AMD CEO, Lisa Su, is rightfully remaining positive about the company’s prospects in the face of a difficult week on the stock market, and even sees Pres. 45’s trade war with China as an “opportunity to gain [market] share.” The last few days may have looked a little tough for AMD, with the company missing its projected figures for the last quarter by a fairly sizeable margin, but that doesn’t tell the whole story of a company still on the rise. There are great opportunities in the CPU sector, with both its desktop and server departments making genuine inroads into Intel’s business, and the potential for both a performance and process lead over its rival with the new 7nm Zen 2 processors launching next year. The graphics market, however, has been dragging AMD's revenue down over the last year, with the cryptocurrency cash-cow being chopped into chuck steak and offering “negligible” revenue for the company. It’s also meant a large volume of stock sticking around unsold in the GPU inventories of the world.
