Advanced Micro Devices is seeing its stock push higher after the chipmaker demonstrated what analysts are describing as tangible, measurable revenue flowing from artificial intelligence demand — a signal that the broader AI trade remains on solid footing despite lingering skepticism in some corners of the market.
