All dividends are meaningful.
Some are more meaningful than others.

That's a word game. The question stands. Do you have any thoughts to contribute?

AMD lost money for 9 straight quarters - and managed to eke out a measley, paltry $43 million profit in the best quarter for semiconductor manufacturers in over 3 years...and that qualifies AMD is what... a growth stock?

Well, AMD stock has certainly outperformed Intel stock over the past several years...but more to the point, AMD has the potential to grow its revenues much faster than the overall market. Due to its size, Intel doesn't really. It keeps trying these "other" businesses (TVs being the latest, apparently), but they've all flopped. Why are they looking to other spaces? Because they realize they cannot maintain "growth" in microprocessors.

The better question is how much has AMD common appreciated in the last year vs. Intel? It has outperformed INTC by alot more than .04 cents a share...

So how do YOU feel, with Intel making billions of dollars, and you only getting to see .04$ a post--oops, I mean *share*--?
