Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) shares rallied over 7% Wednesday, buoyed by bullish analyst sentiment and a key board appointment. The semiconductor leader's stock has soared 200% since early April lows, with Wall Street increasingly viewing it as a viable alternative to Nvidia in the AI accelerator market.

Despite fierce competition from Intel and Arm Holdings, AMD continues gaining server CPU market share. Recent partnerships with OpenAI and Oracle have further cemented investor confidence in its growth trajectory. KeyBanc maintains its $270 price target, citing hyperscalers' advanced bookings for 2026 server capacity.

The tech sector broadly benefited from easing trade tensions, with the Nasdaq Composite rising 1.5%. Bernstein joined KeyBanc in raising AMD price targets, reflecting strong demand for its data center processors and Optimism about AI-related R&D.
