BofA & UBS are advising clients to buy AI momentum stocks:
BofA - August is historically the best month for their basket of momentum names such as $AMD(AMD.US), $Sandisk(SNDK.US) and $Micron Tech(MU.US).UBS - "Improving AI fundamentals are a signal to buy the dip."According to UBS' brokerage data, hedge funds have cut long positions in US semis by ~5% of gross market value (one of the biggest reductions on record).Which has resulted in net positioning in semis at Q1 levels, leading to both BofA and UBS positioning themselves as more bullish than earlier on. Probably because of the downside momentum unwind / profit taking easing up now.Cool to see institutional trading desks broadly align with retail sentiment on X.With many AI names now back at more compelling levels.

BofA: Anthropic & AMD Deal
Key Takeaways from the Anthropic Partnership> Partnership Details: AMD announced a partnership with Anthropic to deploy up to 2GW of AMD MI450 Series AI GPUs starting in the first half of 2027. > Financial Commitments: AMD committed to a $5 billion strategic equity investment and will use Anthropic's Claude in research and development (R&D) projects. > Expanded Engagements: This deal expands AMD's MI engagements to four major customers: Anthropic, OpenAI (likely via Microsoft cloud), Oracle, and Meta. > Financial Upside: The engagement indicates at least a $10 billion to $15 billion upside to current consensus expectations of $35 billion to $40 billion for CY27 MI sales. Analyst Event & Product Outlook> Advancing AI Event: Pre-announcements involving Microsoft and Anthropic serve as incremental positives ahead of AMD's analyst event. > Server CPU Roadmap: The event is expected to spotlight the server CPU roadmap (specifically upcoming Venice CPUs) and how they compete against NVIDIA's Vera in the agentic AI era. > CoWoS Supply & Sales Potential: Latest TSMC Chip-on-Wafer-on-Substrate (CoWoS) supply estimates point to roughly 1.4 million MI450 Series GPU units in CY27, which could surpass $40 billion in sales assuming a $30k average selling price (ASP).$AMD(AMD.US)

📊 𝐈𝐍𝐕𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐄: 📢 𝗝𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗜𝗡: BofA Sees Server CPU Market Reaching $𝟭𝟳𝟬 𝗕𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 by 2030 - $AMD(AMD.US) $Intel(INTC.US) $NVIDIA(NVDA.US)
👉 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀:➤ 𝗕𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗔𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮 projects the server CPU market at $𝟭𝟳𝟬 𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 by 2030.➤ BofA reiterates a 𝗕𝘂𝘆 rating and $𝟯𝟱𝟬 price target on 𝗡𝗩𝗜𝗗𝗜𝗔.➤ 𝗡𝗩𝗜𝗗𝗜𝗔's 𝗩𝗲𝗿𝗮 CPU intensifies competition with 𝗔𝗠𝗗 in AI infrastructure.➤ BofA says the key debate is 𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 versus 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝗽𝘂𝘁 for agentic AI.➤ Vera features 𝟴𝟴 𝗔𝗥𝗠-based cores and 𝟭.𝟮𝗧𝗕/𝘀 memory bandwidth.➤ BofA says AMD estimates 𝗘𝗣𝗬𝗖 𝟵𝟵𝟲𝟱 delivers about 𝟮.𝟰𝘅 rack-level throughput.➤ AMD projects next-generation 𝗘𝗣𝗬𝗖 𝟲 could deliver roughly 𝟯.𝟯𝘅 throughput.➤ 𝗔𝗠𝗗 𝗔𝗜 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝗗𝗮𝘆 is seen as the next key catalyst.➤ BofA says 𝘅𝟴𝟲 software incumbency could remain a long-term advantage for AMD and Intel.👉 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀:𝗩𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗸 𝗔𝗿𝘆𝗮, Analyst at Bank of America:"The key question for investors is whether agentic AI is primarily constrained by time-to-complete an agent or number-of-agents-per-rack.""NVDA's framework is rooted in latency, per-thread progress, and GPU utilization. AMD's framework is rooted in concurrency, throughput, and service density.""Our expectation is that AMD's Thursday event will be less about benchmark comparisons and more about establishing the industry's preferred metric." - N
$Super Micro Computer(SMCI.US) Smci jumped higher, fueled by a robust update that it expects to nearly double its gross margins in upcoming quarters. The company highlighted a staggering new order intake of more than $60 billion in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, pushing its backlog to an all-time high. Such volume underscores strong demand for Supermicro's customized server solutions amid the ongoing AI hardware surge. Smci's servers integrate chips from industry heavyweights like Nvidia, Intel, and AMD. The company recently teased big projects, including a new gigawatt-scale AI data center for SpaceX and XAI, highlighting its role in powering next-generation AI infrastructure. I believe this is currently one of the better stocks for swing trading if you are patient enough. @Captain's Treasure

It is difficult to tell if this recovery in chip stocks is a dead cat bounce. My gut feeling says no as the AI infrasture demand is real but the market is moved by smart money and what we can do is size our positions according to our risk appetite and set stop losses.

While everyone else was focused on South Korea crash & buying the dips on memory stocks, I am paying attention to our local market. With the reduced board lot size introduced in October, many are pushing bank stocks higher before taking profit later on. I'm not 100% sure that a healthy pullback is on the cards anytime soon, but I'm certainly not rushing in as well. I'm buying these bank stocks for my dividend portfolio, not trading, hence the patience and not trying to fomo in to lock in more profits.

AMD strengthened its AI infrastructure strategy by committing to the Helios platform, shifting from selling standalone accelerators to offering an integrated AI rack solution. Microsoft’s planned Azure deployment and customer commitments from Meta, OpenAI and Oracle enhance AMD’s AI positioning. Despite higher analyst price targets, the stock’s gains were limited as broader market sentiment was weighed down by oil price concerns and caution ahead of earnings, while select AI supply-chain segments remained relatively resilient.

More custom silicon and rack options means AI infra gets commoditized and deployed everywhere. Google with “Frozen v2” and AMD with Helios on Azure lowers cost per token, so usage explodes. Nvidia still sells the most GPUs, but TSMC, power, cooling, and networking all win bigger. This isn’t anti-Nvidia, it’s pro-AI scale.
