The stock can continue beating the market.
Overview
The artificial intelligence (AI) revolution is in full swing, and several companies are capitalizing on it. The list includes Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD). Investors have taken notice: The company's shares have soared over the past 12 months. But have they risen too much, too fast? Some Wall Street analysts certainly think so. Based on its current average price target, AMD could dip from its current levels. Let's find out whether it's best to avoid this company right now.

AMD's shares have gained 279% over the past year. But the company's current Wall Street average price target (according to Yahoo! Finance) is $525.40, implying a downside of about 5% from current levels. To Wall Street's credit, AMD looks expensive by at least some valuation metrics. The company is trading at 79.4x forward earnings, compared to an average of just 21.4x for information technology stocks. However, there are also good reasons to be bullish on the stock.
