This is Why Enphase Energy is up 38%

Advanced Micro Devices is down about $37 a share on soft guidance.

However, the pullback may be a strong buy opportunity – especially with CEO Lisa Su noting that AMD has seen bigger demand over the last few months.

“What I would tell you from someone on the inside is AI is accelerating at a pace that I would not have imagined,” she told CNBC, adding that demand continues to outstrip compute needs.

Su also noted that, “AMD’s datacenter business has accelerated from the fourth to first quarter and demand for its central processing units is ‘going gangbusters’ as businesses rapidly increase compute for AI enterprise work.”

Tax time is here again.

It’s at this time of the year when demand for professional tax services and tax software surges. Many taxpayers would rather pay for peace of mind than risk making a costly mistake on their own. Filing errors — whether related to dependents, capital gains, or income reporting — can result in penalties, surprise tax bills, or unwanted attention from the IRS.

As a result, companies that simplify the tax process often see predictable seasonal strength. For investors, that recurring pattern can translate into opportunity.

Look at H&R Block (HRB).

H&R Block is one of the most recognizable names in tax preparation.

From an investment standpoint, HRB has demonstrated a clear seasonal pattern. In 2024, HRB bottomed near $44 in January, then rallied to a post-tax high of $53.55. In 2025, the stock climbed from roughly $50 to a May high of $63.05.
