AMD has the higher ulcer index rather than the INTC so consequently it is the price information. The ulcer index focuses its real strength only on the downside risk. Stocks that are gapping up to 10% can affect the calculation of standard deviation similar with the stocks that break down to 10%. Though, if the majority of the investors are long stock, then it is viewed with joy while the gap down viewed with horror. Ulcer index indicator is a major measure of risk downside rather than simple variance calculation and standard deviation.
