Intel and
AMD, which hold a near-duopoly in x86 CPUs for PCs and servers, have treated investors very differently over the past three years.
During that time, Intel s stock price rose nearly 25% but underperformed the
Nasdaq s 85% gain. Its manufacturing issues, chip shortages, market share losses, and the abrupt resignation of its CEO in 2018 all weighed down its stock.
Meanwhile, AMD s stock price surged nearly 670% as it profited from Intel s missteps. It produced smaller and more cost-efficient chips than Intel, didn t suffer any chip shortages, held its ground against
NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) in gaming GPUs, and stuck to its long-term roadmap under its visionary CEO.
