Shares of Advanced Micro Devices ( NASDAQ:AMD ) have risen significantly year-to-date (see the image below). However, analysts from Wolfe Research and Wells Fargo believe that the rally in AMD stock is not over yet, implying further upside in the stock.  It’s worth highlighting that AMD is among the top beneficiaries in the  semiconductor space, apart from Nvidia ( NASDAQ:NVDA ), to gain from the surge in demand for chips that drive  AI (Artificial Intelligence) applications. AMD stock recovered significantly thanks to solid demand and its recently launched MI300X GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) for AI.  AMD Stock Could Rise Further, According to Analysts While AMD stock has appreciated quite a lot, Wolfe Research analyst Chris Caso initiated coverage on AMD with a Buy rating on July 19. Further, the analyst added AMD to its Alpha List. Caso assigned a price target of $150 on AMD stock, implying 28.83% upside potential from current levels.  Caso expects the normalization of inventory issues to support AMD’s growth in the second half of 2023. Further, the analyst expects AMD to continue to gain market share and benefit from the AI boom led by its MI300X GPU.  Earlier on July 18,  Wells Fargo analyst Aaron Rakers reiterated a Buy recommendation on AMD stock with a price target of $150. The analyst sees upside potential from the MI300X GPU ramp-up.  What is the Future of AMD Stock? The top Wall Street analysts maintain a favorable outlook on AMD stock. Before we dig deeper, it’s important to mention that TipRanks identifies the  Top Wall Street analysts per sector, per timeframe, and against different benchmarks. The ranking shows an analyst’s ability to deliver higher returns through recommendations. Following the ratings, TipRanks’ algorithms calculate the statistical significance of each rating, the analysts’ overall success rate, and the average return.  Returning to AMD, the stock has 20 Buy and six hold recommendations from top analysts. Further, these analysts’ average price target of $137.19 implies 17.83% upside potential from current levels.  Investors should note that  Gus Richard of Northland Securities is the most accurate analyst for  AMD stock, according to TipRanks. Richard upgraded AMD stock to a Buy on July 5. Copying Richard’s trades on AMD stock and holding each position for one year could result in 91% of your transactions generating a profit, with an average return of 89.31% per trade.

Taiwan's export orders fell for the tenth consecutive month in June, as weak China demand, inflation, and high interest rates continued to offset surging demand for the island's artificial intelligence (AI) supply chain.

Semiconductor giant Intel ( NASDAQ:INTC ) is currently undergoing a restructuring plan that holds considerable implications for the long term. When reflecting on past events, it is worth noting that its competitor, Nvidia ( NASDAQ:NVDA ), has seen its stock more than triple in value since I emphasized its plans for new chip production in November 2022. This begs the question: can Intel stock potentially yield similar high returns for investors? In my opinion, Intel is poised to benefit from the AI boom in the long run. While the benefits may take some time to materialize, they are expected to deliver significant value to investors over a long-term investment horizon. Importantly, the stock is currently trading at much lower levels compared to its all-time high of $69.29 seen in early 2020. Further, I believe the current stock price offers an attractive entry point for long-term investors. AI Opportunity and Related CapEx to Act as Long-Term Tailwinds The global artificial intelligence chip market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 29% between 2023 and 2030, according to Next Move Strategy Consulting. Digging deeper, the market size is expected to grow by over 10 times to around $300 billion by 2030 versus $29 billion in 2022. This presents a huge growth opportunity for all the AI chip makers like Intel. Intel intends to position itself for future growth and maintain its competitive edge by changing its business model and investing in fields like artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and advanced manufacturing. As the AI landscape continues to expand and evolve, Intel is making increased capital expenditures (CapEx) to support strategic growth toward AI development and implementation. NVDA, one of Intel’s top competitors, has gained almost 200% year-to-date, riding high on the AI growth prospects. However, Intel has gained only 26% year-to-date. While NVDA is undoubtedly the dominant player in the AI chip-making industry, competitors like Intel are also bracing up and can get a share of the AI growth in the coming years. Interestingly, while NVDA chips have a huge competitive edge when it comes to performance, Intel chips will offer cheaper alternatives to clients. The better value proposition may help Intel win newer clients as the AI industry continues to grow globally. Further, NVDA’s chips alone will not be able to fulfill the upsurge in demand for AI chips in the coming years. Consequently, peers like Intel will fill in the supply gap and should remain one of the important players in the AI chip-making industry. Intel is Undergoing a Paradigm Shift To gain an edge over its peers, Intel is undergoing multiple restructuring initiatives like increased spending to support strategic growth, disciplined expense management, and PC inventory correction, among others. Intel recently held an investor webinar where it laid out the details of creating a new internal foundry model. This fundamental shift is expected to enhance production efficiency and also lead to cost savings. Moreover, it will also open its products to external customers and chip designers, thereby further driving revenue growth. Under the new operating model, Intel’s internal product business units will have a foundry-style relationship with the company’s manufacturing group working in an “arm’s-length fashion.” Starting Q1 2024, the company will also provide standalone profit and loss statements for its Manufacturing groups that will include Manufacturing, Technology Development, and Intel Foundry Services. Importantly, Intel reiterated its long-term goal of becoming the second-largest external foundry by 2030. The new model is clearly an accelerated step in that direction. With the expected ramp-up of releasing five nodes over the next four years, revenues from the internal foundry are expected to reach $20 billion by 2024. The company said that the transition to the foundry model will play a significant role in achieving its targeted cost savings of over $8 billion to $10 billion by 2025. With the resulting optimization of its cost structure, the company will be likely able to achieve its long-term target non-GAAP gross margin of 60% and operating margin of 40%. For reference, Intel achieved a non-GAAP gross margin of 38.4% and a negative operating margin of 2.4% in the most recently reported first-quarter results. Therefore, Intel has a long path to tread to reach its margin goals. If the shift to the foundry model is successfully executed, it could be a game changer for Intel and help it meet its lofty goals. However, it should be noted that the volume ramp-up is not expected anytime soon and could be visible after Fiscal Year 2025. Investors will likely get more clarity after the upcoming second-quarter earnings report scheduled to be released on July 27. Is Intel Stock a Buy, According to Analysts? As per TipRanks, analysts are cautious about Intel stock and have a Hold consensus rating, which is based on four Buys, 17 Holds, and six Sells assigned in the past three months. Intel stock's average price forecast of $32.26 implies 6.4% downside potential. Conclusion: Consider Buying Intel for Long-Term The AI boom is here to stay, and Intel is diligently taking every necessary step to capitalize on its robust growth potential. The company is currently undergoing a substantial business transformation, implementing an integrated device manufacturer (IDM) 2.0 strategy and adopting a new internal foundry model. These strategic moves are paving the way for a noteworthy expansion of Intel's manufacturing capabilities. Although the results of this scale expansion may not be immediately apparent, Intel is poised to reap the benefits of its multiple initiatives and the long-term potential of AI. Consequently, I maintain a bullish stance on the stock, viewing it through a long-term lens. Disclosure

The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust ( SPY) and Invesco QQQ Trust ( QQQ) are among the widely-discussed  ETFs (exchange-traded funds) on the popular social media platform Reddit. While these ETFs are buzzing on Reddit and have significantly gained mentions, their recent rallies give them limited upside potential (based on analysts’ price targets on their holdings).  But before we dig deeper into these buzzing Reddit ETFs, let’s understand how TipRanks determines the ratings and price targets on ETFs. How Does TipRanks Determine Analyst Ratings on ETFs? TipRanks leverages its proprietary technology to calculate the consensus analyst forecast and price targets for ETFs by taking all their underlying assets into consideration. At a glance, you will see the overall analyst rating, analyst price target, and upside or downside on an ETF.  Innovatively, TipRanks calculates a weighted average number based on the combination of all the ETFs’ holdings. For instance, the average price forecast for an ETF is calculated by multiplying each holding’s price target by its weight (allocation) in the ETF.  Is SPY ETF Good to Buy Now? SPY is one of the most popular ETFs to diversify risk and earn steady returns. For instance, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF has the S&P 500 Index ( SPX ) as the benchmark and aims to provide similar returns.  Impressively, the ETF is highly diversified, offers exposure to 24 separate industry groups, and primarily focuses on  large-cap stocks. Meanwhile, it has delivered an average annualized return of 12.72% in the past decade with a  low expense ratio of 0.09%, which makes it a compelling long-term investment. While SPY is an attractive investment, investors can wait for a better entry point. SPY has gained about 20% year-to-date. Thanks to the recent gains, SPY is trading at a forward price-to-earnings multiple of 20.74, which appears expensive given the estimated EPS growth forecast of 12.48% over the next three to five years.  Yes, the SPY ETF has an  Outperform Smart Score of 8 out of 10 on TipRanks. However, per the recommendations of 6,294 analysts giving stock forecasts for SPY's holdings, the 12-month average SPY price target of $485.53 implies limited upside potential of 6.9% from current levels. Also, the SPY ETF carries a Moderate Buy consensus rating on TipRanks. Among the analysts providing ratings on its holdings, 59.60% have given a Buy rating, 35.02% have assigned a Hold rating, and 5.39% have given a Sell rating. Is QQQ Stock a Buy or Sell? The recovery in mega-cap  technology companies has led to significant growth in the QQQ ETF. For instance, QQQ has gained over 45% on a year-to-date basis, led by the rally in the shares of its  top five holdings, which are Microsoft ( NASDAQ:MSFT ), Apple ( NASDAQ:AAPL ), Nvidia ( NASDAQ:NVDA ), Amazon ( NASDAQ:AMZN ), and Tesla ( NASDAQ:TSLA ).  Together, its top five holdings account for 43.53% of its total holdings, implying that its performance is highly dependent on them. While these tech giants are poised to deliver strong growth in the long term, their recent rallies and valuation concerns could restrict their upside potential in the short term. This is well reflected in analysts’ price forecast for QQQ over the next 12 months.  According to the recommendations of 1,730 analysts giving stock forecasts for QQQ's holdings, the 12-month average QQQ price target of $396.72 implies a mere 2.85% in upside potential from current levels.  Nonetheless, QQQ ETF, which has the Nasdaq-100 index ( NDX ) as its benchmark, sports an  Outperform Smart Score of 8 out of 10 on TipRanks. It has consistently outperformed the broader markets and delivered solid returns. However, the recent run in its price is keeping analysts cautiously optimistic.  QQQ ETF has a Moderate Buy consensus rating. Among the analysts providing ratings on its holdings, 66.53% have given a Buy rating, 29.71% have assigned a Hold rating, and 3.76% have given a Sell rating. The Bottom Line Both these buzzing Reddit ETFs look like solid long-term investments for investors seeking exposure to top companies with relatively lower risk. SPY and QQQ offer diversification and consistently deliver attractive returns. However, both these ETFs have gained quite a lot, which limits their upside potential.   Disclosure
