AMD Just Crossed $1 Trillion. Is it Still Worth Buying Now?

The chipmaker has come a long way from being a distant second to Nvidia.

AMD Just Crossed $1 Trillion. Is it Still Worth Buying Now?

Published September 22, 2026 · Category: Finance

Overview

Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) shares rose by 10% on Monday to a new all-time high of more than $615. This pushed the chipmaker's market cap above $1 trillion for the first time ever. The stock is now up by more than 180% year-to-date, and that's on top of an already impressive performance in 2025.

It's historically been a mistake to bet against AMD, at least since Lisa Su became CEO. The company was thought of as a distant also-ran to Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) a decade ago. And it was thought of as a very distant second in the AI chip race to Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) until very recently. But the company has shown that it's a legitimate player and serious competitor to both industry giants.
