Yet, this same period saw the company's stock fall by almost 18% on the back of a weaker than expected full year outlook coupled with broader market uncertainties related to trade wars and an increasingly gloomy global economic growth outlook. Despite this setback, we remain convinced in our view that the best is yet to come for AMD. Here's why.
