What happened

On Thursday, Nov 5, AMD fell 17.3% and lost about $138B in market value. Chip stocks had their worst day since 2020: the PHLX Semiconductor Index dropped 12%, according to Yahoo Finance.

On Friday, investors bought the dip. AMD climbed about 8% to around $436, adding roughly $50B. These are intraday numbers from about 1:15 PM ET, before the close.

Why it matters

A one-day bounce of 8% sounds big, but it doesn't erase a 17.3% drop. The stock still sits below Wednesday's close of $488.78.

Zoom out and the picture is worse: since AMD's record close of $649.42 on Oct 6, about $350B in market value is gone. One green day doesn't change that trend on its own. Not financial advice.
