Should You Buy AMD Stock Ahead of Q2 Earnings on August 5?

Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) will release its second-quarter earnings on Tuesday, Aug. 5. AMD stock has been on an impressive run ahead of the earnings, recently hitting a 52-week high of $182.50 on July 31. Notably, shares of this semiconductor giant have gained 77.65% in three months, far outperforming the broader S&P 500 Index ($SPX), which has gained 11.31% in the same period.
