You may want to research the term "high beta stock".


Sure thing, and you might want to research the term "AMD rose colored glasses".

btw, Market Watch sems to also agree with "Our Conclusion", that AMD's stock fall today, is due to AMD Flash screw ups, AND poor PC margins.....

Still, the company's operating margin in the PC chip business is low compared to Intel's, according to Eric Ross, an analyst with the San Francisco investment bank ThinkEquity Partners.
AMD's PC operating margin is 12 percent, versus 30 percent for Intel, Ross said.
"AMD has relatively poor microprocessor operating margins even in the current environment in which the computing market is relatively strong and AMD is gaining share," A.G. Edwards analyst David Wong wrote.


Perhaps they need to "research the term "high beta stock" too, instead of the more obvious, AMD poor Flash performance/Poor PC margins, reason they conclude. Perhaps "they" are not currently wearing those AMD rose colored glasses, like some "other people" are, and I guess it's easier to see things more clearly, without them, eh?
