AMD’s OpenAI Deal Spurs Gains for Partner Stocks, Analysts Say
Wall Street analysts have identified a cluster of technology stocks poised to benefit from Advanced Micro Devices' landmark deal with OpenAI. Super Micro Computer, Dell Technologies, and Astera Labs led Tuesday's rally as AMD's AI chip commitment sent ripples through semiconductor markets.
The agreement—which commits OpenAI to purchasing multiple generations of AMD's AI accelerators—propelled AMD shares 24% on announcement day with an additional 4% gain following. J.P. Morgan's analysis suggests the deal serves as both a sector-wide validation of AI infrastructure demand and a direct catalyst for AMD's manufacturing partners.
Arista Networks and Sanmina joined server manufacturers like Hewlett Packard Enterprise in the beneficiary cohort, particularly after Sanmina's acquisition of AMD's ZT Systems data center manufacturing unit earlier this year. The market's response underscores growing institutional confidence in AI's hardware supply chain.
