AMD Q3 Preview: Expert Says ‘Growth Story Remains Impressive,’ Can Earnings Send Stock Back to Highs?

AMD delivered a record quarter for Q3 2026, highlighted by a 97% year-over-year revenue increase in its Data Center segment. This growth was driven by record sales of AMD EPYC processors and AMD Instinct GPUs. The results arrive as the company faces pressure from broader AI sector fears and a recent selloff affecting chip stocks, including a disappointing showing from Intel. While some analysts previously highlighted concerns over declining free cash flow and the need for a strong outlook to sustain stock prices, the primary financial results show significant scaling in AI hardware.
