#5 - Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD)
Although it may not be as well-known as Nvidia, Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD) deserves consideration in any AI portfolio. The company has noticeably moved into a solid number two position in both the graphic processing unit (GPU) market as well as the central processing unit (CPU) market.
To paraphrase an old advertising slogan, perhaps being number two AMD tries harder. Whatever they’re doing, it seems to work. The company does not have a dedicated AI chip, but they are still a presence in deep learning. The chipmaker is also the exclusive builder on two of the three fastest supercomputing systems that are used by the U.S. government.
Like Alphabet, AMD stock is not getting a lot of love from investors. It’s up just over 6% for the year as of this writing. But that shouldn’t dissuade you. The company continues to make solid gains on its competition and is showing increasing strength in the data center category.
