Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) has been on an impressive run over the past 52 weeks, with shares of the chip stock up more than 126% over this time frame. With the global semiconductor market expected to reach $736 billion by 2027, according to Statista, AMD finds itself well-positioned, with a diversified foothold spanning CPUs, GPUs, and enterprise data centers. Bolstered by new product launches in 2023, including the industry-leading Instinct MI300 data center GPUs, AMD captured 25% market share in the data center space last quarter, putting pressure on mega-cap rivals like Nvidia (NVDA) and Intel (INTC).

Here's a closer look at the prospects for AMD right now, and what Wall Street analysts are expecting next.
