Intel’s (INTC) margin problems, which have taken its shares down over 5% today, have not been nearly as hard on its smaller rival AMD (AMD). Its shares are off only 2.3% on a big down day for tech.
A look at the Intel numbers should scare AMD holders, but it hasn’t. If Intel’s margins go squeezed, it would stand to reason that there is still a price was going on. And AMD should suffer a similar decline in gross margins.
Perhaps it is because AMD expectations are so low.
Analysts looking for -$0.85 after warnings now on $1.26 billion revenues. The real problem is that even if the company is able to ink a turnaround is that the it is expected to post losses for fiscal 2007 and even in 2008.
But, AMD’s number could be worse than that. Intel’s certainly were.
