Well, I will admit such did not exactly play out for investors. Instead, the share price rose from $423 to $615 yesterday, good for a +45% jump in value. However, my long-term view hasn't changed that a wicked sell-off in shares is approaching.YCharts - NVIDIA, 5 Years of Weekly Price ChangeWhy? Two factors are part of my thinking. The first is what everyone debates on a daily basis: the overvaluation on trailing fundamentals. The second and equally important reason is Nvidia operates a cyclical semiconductor business. With an equity market capitalization reaching for $1.5 trillion, you have to seriously ask yourself if this AI-chip craze valuation really deserves mention in the same league as less-cyclical Apple (AAPL), Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet-Google (GOOG) (GOOGL), Meta Platforms (META), and Amazon (AMZN) for total company worth?YCharts - NVIDIA vs. U.S. Big Tech Leaders, Equity Market Capitalization, Since 2014Amazingly, believe it or not, Nvidia's share performance gain over 10 years (150x your investment from early 2014) has far surpassed the previous Big Tech growth darling of Tesla (TSLA), which is already fading markedly for investor returns from mushrooming competition. My argument is Nvidia will soon suffer the same fate, where competition reduces sales growth and crushes future expectations for earnings.StockCharts.com - NVIDIA, 18 Months of Daily Price & Volume ChangesCrazy OvervaluationWithout a doubt, the +450% Nvidia price gain from October 2022 has everyone questioning how high this stock can go in 2024. For some \"gee whiz\" stats, Nvidia by itself has increased the S&P 500's (SP500) total value by +4% and the Wilshire 5000 stocks by +3% over the last 16 months!Wall Street analyst consensus estimates FY 2026 will DOUBLE FY 2024 levels (January 2023 to January 2024), which should outline a near TRIPLE of 2022-23 numbers. With all the euphoria floating around this stock, mentioning the fact competition may not allow such a large increase instantly gets booed as impossible. That's how investors think during the tail-end of an incredible upsurge for a particular stock or industry.Seeking Alpha Table - NVIDIA, Analyst Estimates for FY 2024-26, Made February 1st, 2024For a forward 1-year valuation on projected earnings yield, bulls point to the fact that 2025-26 numbers should provide a decent 3% to 4% rate for buyers around $600 per share today. I will admit if the current forecast for growth comes to fruition, Nvidia will no longer be wildly overvalued, just mildly so. My gripe is a 2024-25 recession will bring less capital spending by big businesses, even on AI-projects, while other chips with comparable output will come to market. For example, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) just launched a competing AI chip to meet strong demand in the marketplace. Many techies believe the AMD architecture might even be a better choice in the long run vs. Nvidia's high-end offerings.YCharts - NVIDIA vs. U.S. Big Tech Leaders, Forward 1-Year Earnings Yield, Since 2021You have to gulp and accept the high-growth Nvidia story as gospel truth, or else the company is insanely overvalued. Let's look at a 10-year chart of price to trailing fundamentals. Whether reviewing earnings (81x), sales (34x), cash flow (81x), or tangible book value (55x), it's not hard to understand today's underlying company valuation metrics are between 4x and 15x the levels of early 2014. The current valuation is unstainable without massive sales and income expansion between 2024-25.YCharts - NVIDIA, Basic Fundamental Ratio Analysis, Price to Trailing Results Since 2014Seeking Alpha's Quant Valuation Grade system puts an \"F\" score on Nvidia, and I believe that is being generous.

The company made a lot of money in the third quarter - $18.1 billion in revenue, an increase of 206% compared to a year ago. Earnings per share were up six times or 12 times, depending on if you view the GAAP or non-GAAP numbers. \n</p>\n<p>\n     The driver of this growth is its data center segment, responsible for the GPU (graphics processing units) and chips that have been powering high-performance computing and the AI boom. \n</p>\n<p>\n     As recently as a year ago, Nvidia had a year-on-year revenue decrease in this segment (Q3 to Q4 FY23). But since that reporting, revenue in this segment has jumped four times through four quarters and more than three times in just the past six months - reflecting $14.5 billion of that total $18 billion quarterly revenue. \n</p>\n<p>\n     For comparison, Nvidia's gaming division, which as recently as fiscal 2022 generated more revenue than the data center, a revenue increase of 55% year-on-year in the most recent quarter. But it represents just $2.8 billion of gross revenue. \n</p>\n<p>\n     The stunningly fast growth for Nvidia to a $1 trillion market valuation company is due to the AI boom and need for processing chips to handle it. But such rapid growth raises questions - chiefly, can the growth of the data center business continue? This is the most important question that Nvidia investors and analysts must consider. \n</p>\n<p>\n     The quick answer is yes. Data center revenue soared to $14.5 billion from $4.2 billion in just two quarters, On Nvidia's recent quarterly earnings call, CEO Jensen Huang was bullish, as expected, saying that he sees growth in this space through 2025 at least. \n</p>\n<p>\n     There seems to be a growing sense a saturation point in the computing power needed for AI is near, or that we might be approaching the end of the AI training (the computing-intensive process of building an AI model) cycle. Such thinking is incredibly shortsighted. For the foreseeable future, AI training will never be \"done\" and the need for more expansive, more accurate, and more customized AI models will continue to expand. ChatGPT and current generative AI applications are just the start of this revolution, and tools such as Microsoft Copilot <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">$(MSFT)$</a> are beginning to unveil the potential for AI usages. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Huang described what he calls the creation of \"AI factories\" that enable enterprises, governments and infrastructure developers to develop their own AIs, tailored to and specific to different needs. These will provide some of the safety and security needed for inclusion of proprietary and personal data. This vision paints a future where the need for additional AI processing continues to ramp, not one that stabilizes or decreases. \n</p>\n<p>\n     One piece of this puzzle comes from the recently enacted restrictions on shipping GPUs to China. Nvidia reported that its sales for the current quarter and into calendar year 2024 will be impacted, as China and the other restricted regions represented 20%-25% of its total sales. Offsetting that is growth in other parts of the world, Nvidia says, and it makes sense considering the company has been \"sold out\" of chips for some time. If a customer in China can't buy Nvidia's AI chips, I'm sure a suitor is out there in Europe or the U.S. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Nvidia is apparently working on custom designs of its GPUs for the China market that will uphold the performance restrictions from the U.S. government, but it will take a few months for those to start to filter out and represent notable revenue. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Positive trends \n</p>\n<p>\n     Does Nvidia lose its dominant position as the AI world moves from training to inference? No. AI training, or the use of high-performance supercomputers to build complex AI models like Llama and GPT, has been the primary driver of the market for AI computing. \n</p>\n<p>\n     AI inference is the application of those AI models. Once GPT has been trained, then a company like OpenAI can create a user-facing application like ChatGPT that uses the model to \"infer\" answers based on it and input from the user. The question has been asked if Nvidia's growth in AI could be impacted by the move from training-focus to inference-focused markets and as AI gets integrated into applications. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Perhaps the best examples of AI inference at the corporate or consumer level today are ChatGPT and Adobe's Firefly <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ADBE\">$(ADBE)$</a>. Both are generative AI solutions, creating new content based on inputs from the user; text and analysis from ChatGPT and text-to-image for Firefly. And both are utilizing massive numbers of GPUs for AI processing in the cloud. \n</p>\n<p>\n     I expect that GPU usage to continue going forward. Nvidia's AI chips are performant in inference workloads, not just training, and the company has a huge advantage since basically all AI developers are writing and testing code on Nvidia GPUs and its CUDA software development stack. Any competitor in this arena not only has to compete at the hardware level, but with a software layer that can offer efficient development and reliability - no easy task. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Competitors take aim \n</p>\n<p>\n     One potential area to watch is on-device AI processing. As users start demanding more AI applications on their laptops, PCs, and smartphones, Intel <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/INTC\">$(INTC)$</a>, Qualcomm <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/QCOM\">$(QCOM)$</a>and  AMD <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMD\">$(AMD)$</a> are ramping up performance of their own consumer chips for AI. Qualcomm recently showed off its Snapdragon X-series processors, AMD is touting its Ryzen AI technology, and Intel is set to launch its Core Ultra processors next month, all of which include some form of dedicated AI processing on-chip. If this model of AI processing can catch on, then it might diminish the need for Nvidia's AI chips in the data center. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Are there competitive AI chips to worry about? Maybe. If anything should worry Nvidia and its investors, it is competition in the AI chip space. \n</p>\n<p>\n     For its part, Nvidia says it plans to increase its product launch cadence, going from a 24-month release cycle to a 12-month one. That means the company will be bringing new chips to market faster, with more performance and more features with each launch. Clearly Nvidia understands it cannot sit idly and let competitors sneak up. \n</p>\n<p>\n     AMD represents the biggest competitive threat in the short term. Its GPUs have been the second choice for many years, both in the PC market and in the data center. They are based on similar designs and architecture, though they are not as closely aligned as Intel and AMD PC processors; there is still considerable work that has to be done on the software side to migrate from a CUDA development stack. AMD's recent MI300 family of AI chips looks to be ramping well, with a strong announcement of support from Microsoft for Azure cloud implementations. AMD CEO Lisa Su is confident that the company can add $1 billion in revenue quickly. \n</p>\n<p>\n     The custom AI accelerator market was recently made more interesting with the announcement of the Microsoft Maia 100 chip, but also includes chips built by <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta Platforms</a> (META), Amazon AWS <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">$(AMZN)$</a>, and startups like Groq. These options have the potential to offer compelling advantages over Nvidia chips, including higher energy efficiency and better performance thanks to the ability to customize the silicon for specific workloads and algorithms. It can also offer a cost advantage in the long run, \n</p>\n<p>\n     The challenge presented by Intel is an interesting one. While its GPU development work has struggled to gain market share in the years after it hired (and then lost) Raja Koduri, it is focused on its Gaudi branded family of chips that are dedicated for AI processing, acquired with the purchase of Habana Labs in 2019. These chips are proving to be competitive in several areas of the AI segment, but displacing Nvidia in the data center continues to be a struggle. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Intel could turn out to be a partner for Nvidia in the AI race if it can get its foundry services ramped up, providing an alternative to TSMC <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSM\">$(TSM)$</a> for the manufacturing of these massive chips. This would offer pricing negotiation advantages and provide additional capacity that has limited Nvidia so far. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Ryan Shrout is the founder and lead analyst at Shrout Research.

The company made a lot of money in the third quarter - $18.1 billion in revenue, an increase of 206% compared to a year ago. Earnings per share were up six times or 12 times, depending on if you view the GAAP or non-GAAP numbers. \n</p>\n<p>\n     The driver of this growth is its data center segment, responsible for the GPU (graphics processing units) and chips that have been powering high-performance computing and the AI boom. \n</p>\n<p>\n     As recently as a year ago, Nvidia had a year-on-year revenue decrease in this segment (Q3 to Q4 FY23). But since that reporting, revenue in this segment has jumped four times through four quarters and more than three times in just the past six months - reflecting $14.5 billion of that total $18 billion quarterly revenue. \n</p>\n<p>\n     For comparison, Nvidia's gaming division, which as recently as fiscal 2022 generated more revenue than the data center, a revenue increase of 55% year-on-year in the most recent quarter. But it represents just $2.8 billion of gross revenue. \n</p>\n<p>\n     The stunningly fast growth for Nvidia to a $1 trillion market valuation company is due to the AI boom and need for processing chips to handle it. But such rapid growth raises questions - chiefly, can the growth of the data center business continue? This is the most important question that Nvidia investors and analysts must consider. \n</p>\n<p>\n     The quick answer is yes. Data center revenue soared to $14.5 billion from $4.2 billion in just two quarters, On Nvidia's recent quarterly earnings call, CEO Jensen Huang was bullish, as expected, saying that he sees growth in this space through 2025 at least. \n</p>\n<p>\n     There seems to be a growing sense a saturation point in the computing power needed for AI is near, or that we might be approaching the end of the AI training (the computing-intensive process of building an AI model) cycle. Such thinking is incredibly shortsighted. For the foreseeable future, AI training will never be \"done\" and the need for more expansive, more accurate, and more customized AI models will continue to expand. ChatGPT and current generative AI applications are just the start of this revolution, and tools such as Microsoft Copilot <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MSFT\">$(MSFT)$</a> are beginning to unveil the potential for AI usages. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Huang described what he calls the creation of \"AI factories\" that enable enterprises, governments and infrastructure developers to develop their own AIs, tailored to and specific to different needs. These will provide some of the safety and security needed for inclusion of proprietary and personal data. This vision paints a future where the need for additional AI processing continues to ramp, not one that stabilizes or decreases. \n</p>\n<p>\n     One piece of this puzzle comes from the recently enacted restrictions on shipping GPUs to China. Nvidia reported that its sales for the current quarter and into calendar year 2024 will be impacted, as China and the other restricted regions represented 20%-25% of its total sales. Offsetting that is growth in other parts of the world, Nvidia says, and it makes sense considering the company has been \"sold out\" of chips for some time. If a customer in China can't buy Nvidia's AI chips, I'm sure a suitor is out there in Europe or the U.S. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Nvidia is apparently working on custom designs of its GPUs for the China market that will uphold the performance restrictions from the U.S. government, but it will take a few months for those to start to filter out and represent notable revenue. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Positive trends \n</p>\n<p>\n     Does Nvidia lose its dominant position as the AI world moves from training to inference? No. AI training, or the use of high-performance supercomputers to build complex AI models like Llama and GPT, has been the primary driver of the market for AI computing. \n</p>\n<p>\n     AI inference is the application of those AI models. Once GPT has been trained, then a company like OpenAI can create a user-facing application like ChatGPT that uses the model to \"infer\" answers based on it and input from the user. The question has been asked if Nvidia's growth in AI could be impacted by the move from training-focus to inference-focused markets and as AI gets integrated into applications. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Perhaps the best examples of AI inference at the corporate or consumer level today are ChatGPT and Adobe's Firefly <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ADBE\">$(ADBE)$</a>. Both are generative AI solutions, creating new content based on inputs from the user; text and analysis from ChatGPT and text-to-image for Firefly. And both are utilizing massive numbers of GPUs for AI processing in the cloud. \n</p>\n<p>\n     I expect that GPU usage to continue going forward. Nvidia's AI chips are performant in inference workloads, not just training, and the company has a huge advantage since basically all AI developers are writing and testing code on Nvidia GPUs and its CUDA software development stack. Any competitor in this arena not only has to compete at the hardware level, but with a software layer that can offer efficient development and reliability - no easy task. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Competitors take aim \n</p>\n<p>\n     One potential area to watch is on-device AI processing. As users start demanding more AI applications on their laptops, PCs, and smartphones, Intel <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/INTC\">$(INTC)$</a>, Qualcomm <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/QCOM\">$(QCOM)$</a>and  AMD <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMD\">$(AMD)$</a> are ramping up performance of their own consumer chips for AI. Qualcomm recently showed off its Snapdragon X-series processors, AMD is touting its Ryzen AI technology, and Intel is set to launch its Core Ultra processors next month, all of which include some form of dedicated AI processing on-chip. If this model of AI processing can catch on, then it might diminish the need for Nvidia's AI chips in the data center. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Are there competitive AI chips to worry about? Maybe. If anything should worry Nvidia and its investors, it is competition in the AI chip space. \n</p>\n<p>\n     For its part, Nvidia says it plans to increase its product launch cadence, going from a 24-month release cycle to a 12-month one. That means the company will be bringing new chips to market faster, with more performance and more features with each launch. Clearly Nvidia understands it cannot sit idly and let competitors sneak up. \n</p>\n<p>\n     AMD represents the biggest competitive threat in the short term. Its GPUs have been the second choice for many years, both in the PC market and in the data center. They are based on similar designs and architecture, though they are not as closely aligned as Intel and AMD PC processors; there is still considerable work that has to be done on the software side to migrate from a CUDA development stack. AMD's recent MI300 family of AI chips looks to be ramping well, with a strong announcement of support from Microsoft for Azure cloud implementations. AMD CEO Lisa Su is confident that the company can add $1 billion in revenue quickly. \n</p>\n<p>\n     The custom AI accelerator market was recently made more interesting with the announcement of the Microsoft Maia 100 chip, but also includes chips built by <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta Platforms</a> (META), Amazon AWS <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AMZN\">$(AMZN)$</a>, and startups like Groq. These options have the potential to offer compelling advantages over Nvidia chips, including higher energy efficiency and better performance thanks to the ability to customize the silicon for specific workloads and algorithms. It can also offer a cost advantage in the long run, \n</p>\n<p>\n     The challenge presented by Intel is an interesting one. While its GPU development work has struggled to gain market share in the years after it hired (and then lost) Raja Koduri, it is focused on its Gaudi branded family of chips that are dedicated for AI processing, acquired with the purchase of Habana Labs in 2019. These chips are proving to be competitive in several areas of the AI segment, but displacing Nvidia in the data center continues to be a struggle. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Intel could turn out to be a partner for Nvidia in the AI race if it can get its foundry services ramped up, providing an alternative to TSMC <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/TSM\">$(TSM)$</a> for the manufacturing of these massive chips. This would offer pricing negotiation advantages and provide additional capacity that has limited Nvidia so far. \n</p>\n<p>\n     Ryan Shrout is the founder and lead analyst at Shrout Research.

According to my valuation analysis, the massive rally of the last twelve months pushed the stock above its fair price. While I could have opted to pay a significant premium for an undisputed leader in the AI chipmaking market, like NVIDIA (NVDA), I am of the opinion that a company trailing behind, such as AMD, does not merit such a premium valuation. Therefore, I believe that AMD is a &#34;Sell&#34; at the current share price.</p><h2 id=\"id_3208995006\">Fundamental analysis</h2><p>According to the latest 10-K report, AMD is a global semiconductor company primarily offering server microprocessors (&#34;CPUs&#34;), graphic processing units (&#34;GPUs&#34;), accelerated processing units (&#34;APUs&#34;), data processing units (&#34;DPUs&#34;), AI accelerators and adaptive system-on-chip (&#34;SoC&#34;) products for data centers. The company also provides chipsets for desktops, notebooks, personal computers (&#34;PCs&#34;), and embedded products.</p><p>AMD emerged as a key beneficiary of the rapidly accelerating digital revolution, driving the stock to appreciate by an impressive 4.5 thousand percent over the past decade, yielding an outstanding annualized return of 45% for investors. While it&#39;s tempting to credit AMD&#39;s success solely to favorable shifts in the microenvironment, it would be remiss not to highlight the exceptional leadership of Dr. Lisa Su. Appointed as CEO of AMD a decade ago, Dr. Su&#39;s visionary guidance ushered in a new era of prosperity for the company.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a05af8787f243225ad7269026d5ae953\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"439\"/></p><p>Data by YCharts</p><p>Under Lisa Su&#39;s leadership, AMD experienced remarkable growth, with revenue compounding at 20% and operating margins soaring. However, in recent years, the company faced challenges such as revenue pullback and a sharp decline in operating margin, stemming from unfavorable macroeconomic factors like high inflation, swift monetary policy tightening in developed nations, and significant geopolitical disruptions. Although these challenges may seem transient, it&#39;s crucial to acknowledge that despite its notable growth over the past decade, the business remains considerably vulnerable to macroenvironmental shifts, indicating a lack of resilience.</p><p>Furthermore, the CPU and GPU industries are massively competitive. AMD competes with players like NVIDIA and Intel (INTC), which are much larger in terms of revenue. So far, AMD, under Lisa Su&#39;s leadership, has been very successful in gaining market share in CPU at Intel&#39;s cost, but in a rapidly evolving environment when cutting-edge products&#39; lifecycles are short, there is no guarantee that AMD will be able to consistently sustain its market share while competing with giants like Intel and NVIDIA. In the table below, you can see that in absolute terms, AMD&#39;s gross profit is multiple times lower compared to its primary competitors, meaning it has fewer resources to reinvest in business.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3ec02bc91146ec3b4e0ddf41c43f91ad\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"255\"/></p><p>SA</p><p>I believe there&#39;s significant optimism surrounding AMD, particularly driven by the burgeoning artificial intelligence (&#34;AI&#34;) industry. However, as investors, it&#39;s essential to maintain a level-headed approach and delve deeper into the technological landscape. Historically, AMD has demonstrated strength in CPUs rather than GPUs. Yet, for accelerating computing in AI development, GPUs offer greater capacity and are thus better suited. Unfortunately, in the realm of GPUs, AMD significantly lags behind its competitor, NVDA. Consequently, the company&#39;s exposure to the burgeoning AI trend appears to be severely limited, and investors should be aware.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9a89545cfd9ad2bee1c72069ef220ac0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"287\"/></p><p>tomshardware.com</p><p>The extent to which AMD lags behind NVDA is evident in the most recent financial performance. While NVDA is projected by consensus to record a staggering 119% revenue growth for the fiscal year ending in January 2024, AMD demonstrated a revenue decline in such a massive year for semiconductor stocks. The company&#39;s revenue in the PC segment dropped massively, and the growth in the Data Center segment, which is supposed to absorb AI tailwinds, was very far from offsetting the loss.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/71456b11d7c2c5e36462a2ca630215cf\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"218\"/></p><p>AMD&#39;s 10-K report FY2023</p><p>Many AMD bulls might say that the company has a more diverse portfolio of offerings and end markets in comparison with NVDA, but it seems that this diversification approach does not work that well for shareholders. While NVDA consensus estimates project a 57% revenue growth for the year, which will end in January 2025 to reach almost $93 billion, AMD is expected to achieve only half of this revenue within the next five years.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ac5758d1d610884649d5f99c06d69f9e\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"232\"/></p><p>SA</p><p>Some might argue that the significant disparity in expected revenue growth is already factored into the market capitalization of both companies, given that NVIDIA&#39;s market cap is currently approximately six times higher than AMD&#39;s. However, as a long-term investor, I prioritize investing in the underlying business rather than merely the stock as an instrument. In this regard, I favor investing in an undisputed market leader over a laggard struggling to drive revenue growth, especially during a year marked by massive AI enthusiasm.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/21408cabb7f5434dd81d19a8bc08b6ba\" tg-width=\"583\" tg-height=\"236\"/></p><p>Lib Quotes</p><h2 id=\"id_4210092192\">Valuation analysis</h2><p>AMD showed a strong start in 2024 with a 16.6% stock price increase. The momentum across different timeframes is robust, as the stock price has doubled over the last 12 months and increased by 50% over the last quarter. The stock is currently very close to all-time highs. The current market cap is $278 billion.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4626d115d487f26e52cd1d4e87993f18\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"268\"/></p><p>SA</p><p>To check whether the current share price is attractive, I will conduct the discounted cash flow (&#34;DCF&#34;) analysis with a 9.8% discount rate. As I usually do, I incorporate consensus revenue estimates for the two upcoming fiscal years. For the years after FY 2025, I expect a steady 300 basis points yearly revenue growth deceleration. I use a 9.72% TTM levered FCF margin with the expected 100 basis points yearly expansion. Due to all the AI industry tailwinds, I give AMD a very optimistic 8% constant growth rate for the terminal value (&#34;TV&#34;) calculation. Currently, there are about 1.6 billion AMD shares outstanding.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/08ecc9b8ba72807dcb29507bab4d1208\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"308\"/></p><p>Calculated by the author</p><p>My DCF analysis gives AMD&#39;s fair share price at $162, which is around 6% lower than the current market levels. Therefore, I cannot conclude that the stock is attractively valued. If AMD was the undisputable leader in the GPU market, I would say that the premium is well-deserved, but paying above the fair price for the company, which substantially lags in terms of market share, does not look sound to me.</p><p>Moreover, it is crucial to highlight that the DCF calculation significantly depends on the terminal value amount, which represents around 90% of the fair share price. That said, decreasing the constant growth rate assumption by a mere 50 basis points decreases AMD&#39;s fair share price to $128, which signals a massive 25% overvaluation.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/cc0f5651e6f3d319acccb833c17bbe99\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"308\"/></p><p>Calculated by the author</p><h2 id=\"id_3051334112\">Mitigating factors</h2><p>While I currently hold a bearish outlook on AMD at its present stock price, there are several mitigating factors that could potentially prove me wrong.</p><p>Firstly, we are currently amidst a period of significant market optimism surrounding the semiconductor industry, largely driven by the rapid expansion of AI technology. As a prominent player in this sector, AMD stands to benefit from this positive sentiment. For instance, the upcoming earnings report from NVDA at the end of February could be a substantial catalyst for all major semiconductor companies, potentially leading to a double-digit increase in AMD&#39;s share price within a short timeframe.</p><p>Secondly, AMD consistently unveils new chips and accelerators, and the market&#39;s reaction to these offerings could significantly influence the stock price in the short term. There exists a possibility that AMD might introduce a groundbreaking product that garners widespread acclaim, sparking a notable rally in its stock price.</p><p>Lastly, the power of momentum cannot be underestimated. With the stock having surged approximately 50% over the last quarter, a significant portion of this rally may have been driven by the fear of missing out (&#34;FOMO&#34;) effect. In such circumstances, a sell-off in the stock might only occur in the event of a major adverse development for the broader market, such as an unexpectedly weak quarterly report.

According to my valuation analysis, the massive rally of the last twelve months pushed the stock above its fair price. While I could have opted to pay a significant premium for an undisputed leader in the AI chipmaking market, like NVIDIA (NVDA), I am of the opinion that a company trailing behind, such as AMD, does not merit such a premium valuation. Therefore, I believe that AMD is a \"Sell\" at the current share price.Fundamental analysisAccording to the latest 10-K report, AMD is a global semiconductor company primarily offering server microprocessors (\"CPUs\"), graphic processing units (\"GPUs\"), accelerated processing units (\"APUs\"), data processing units (\"DPUs\"), AI accelerators and adaptive system-on-chip (\"SoC\") products for data centers. The company also provides chipsets for desktops, notebooks, personal computers (\"PCs\"), and embedded products.AMD emerged as a key beneficiary of the rapidly accelerating digital revolution, driving the stock to appreciate by an impressive 4.5 thousand percent over the past decade, yielding an outstanding annualized return of 45% for investors. While it's tempting to credit AMD's success solely to favorable shifts in the microenvironment, it would be remiss not to highlight the exceptional leadership of Dr. Lisa Su. Appointed as CEO of AMD a decade ago, Dr. Su's visionary guidance ushered in a new era of prosperity for the company.Data by YChartsUnder Lisa Su's leadership, AMD experienced remarkable growth, with revenue compounding at 20% and operating margins soaring. However, in recent years, the company faced challenges such as revenue pullback and a sharp decline in operating margin, stemming from unfavorable macroeconomic factors like high inflation, swift monetary policy tightening in developed nations, and significant geopolitical disruptions. Although these challenges may seem transient, it's crucial to acknowledge that despite its notable growth over the past decade, the business remains considerably vulnerable to macroenvironmental shifts, indicating a lack of resilience.Furthermore, the CPU and GPU industries are massively competitive. AMD competes with players like NVIDIA and Intel (INTC), which are much larger in terms of revenue. So far, AMD, under Lisa Su's leadership, has been very successful in gaining market share in CPU at Intel's cost, but in a rapidly evolving environment when cutting-edge products' lifecycles are short, there is no guarantee that AMD will be able to consistently sustain its market share while competing with giants like Intel and NVIDIA. In the table below, you can see that in absolute terms, AMD's gross profit is multiple times lower compared to its primary competitors, meaning it has fewer resources to reinvest in business.SAI believe there's significant optimism surrounding AMD, particularly driven by the burgeoning artificial intelligence (\"AI\") industry. However, as investors, it's essential to maintain a level-headed approach and delve deeper into the technological landscape. Historically, AMD has demonstrated strength in CPUs rather than GPUs. Yet, for accelerating computing in AI development, GPUs offer greater capacity and are thus better suited. Unfortunately, in the realm of GPUs, AMD significantly lags behind its competitor, NVDA. Consequently, the company's exposure to the burgeoning AI trend appears to be severely limited, and investors should be aware.tomshardware.comThe extent to which AMD lags behind NVDA is evident in the most recent financial performance. While NVDA is projected by consensus to record a staggering 119% revenue growth for the fiscal year ending in January 2024, AMD demonstrated a revenue decline in such a massive year for semiconductor stocks. The company's revenue in the PC segment dropped massively, and the growth in the Data Center segment, which is supposed to absorb AI tailwinds, was very far from offsetting the loss.AMD's 10-K report FY2023Many AMD bulls might say that the company has a more diverse portfolio of offerings and end markets in comparison with NVDA, but it seems that this diversification approach does not work that well for shareholders. While NVDA consensus estimates project a 57% revenue growth for the year, which will end in January 2025 to reach almost $93 billion, AMD is expected to achieve only half of this revenue within the next five years.SASome might argue that the significant disparity in expected revenue growth is already factored into the market capitalization of both companies, given that NVIDIA's market cap is currently approximately six times higher than AMD's. However, as a long-term investor, I prioritize investing in the underlying business rather than merely the stock as an instrument. In this regard, I favor investing in an undisputed market leader over a laggard struggling to drive revenue growth, especially during a year marked by massive AI enthusiasm.Lib QuotesValuation analysisAMD showed a strong start in 2024 with a 16.6% stock price increase. The momentum across different timeframes is robust, as the stock price has doubled over the last 12 months and increased by 50% over the last quarter. The stock is currently very close to all-time highs. The current market cap is $278 billion.SATo check whether the current share price is attractive, I will conduct the discounted cash flow (\"DCF\") analysis with a 9.8% discount rate. As I usually do, I incorporate consensus revenue estimates for the two upcoming fiscal years. For the years after FY 2025, I expect a steady 300 basis points yearly revenue growth deceleration. I use a 9.72% TTM levered FCF margin with the expected 100 basis points yearly expansion. Due to all the AI industry tailwinds, I give AMD a very optimistic 8% constant growth rate for the terminal value (\"TV\") calculation. Currently, there are about 1.6 billion AMD shares outstanding.Calculated by the authorMy DCF analysis gives AMD's fair share price at $162, which is around 6% lower than the current market levels. Therefore, I cannot conclude that the stock is attractively valued. If AMD was the undisputable leader in the GPU market, I would say that the premium is well-deserved, but paying above the fair price for the company, which substantially lags in terms of market share, does not look sound to me.Moreover, it is crucial to highlight that the DCF calculation significantly depends on the terminal value amount, which represents around 90% of the fair share price. That said, decreasing the constant growth rate assumption by a mere 50 basis points decreases AMD's fair share price to $128, which signals a massive 25% overvaluation.Calculated by the authorMitigating factorsWhile I currently hold a bearish outlook on AMD at its present stock price, there are several mitigating factors that could potentially prove me wrong.Firstly, we are currently amidst a period of significant market optimism surrounding the semiconductor industry, largely driven by the rapid expansion of AI technology. As a prominent player in this sector, AMD stands to benefit from this positive sentiment. For instance, the upcoming earnings report from NVDA at the end of February could be a substantial catalyst for all major semiconductor companies, potentially leading to a double-digit increase in AMD's share price within a short timeframe.Secondly, AMD consistently unveils new chips and accelerators, and the market's reaction to these offerings could significantly influence the stock price in the short term. There exists a possibility that AMD might introduce a groundbreaking product that garners widespread acclaim, sparking a notable rally in its stock price.Lastly, the power of momentum cannot be underestimated. With the stock having surged approximately 50% over the last quarter, a significant portion of this rally may have been driven by the fear of missing out (\"FOMO\") effect. In such circumstances, a sell-off in the stock might only occur in the event of a major adverse development for the broader market, such as an unexpectedly weak quarterly report. Given that the next earnings release is still some time away, the momentum behind the stock could persist for the next few months.ConclusionWhile AMD has exposure to the booming AI industry, I think that the market overestimates the extent of this exposure. AMD is not a trendsetter in the industry, and its GPU market share is multiple times lower compared to the industry leader. Therefore, I consider the current 6% premium to the stock price as a good selling opportunity and assign AMD a \"Sell\" rating.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":128,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":270584198762792,"gmtCreate":1707098546838,"gmtModify":1707098550833,"author":{"id":"4161990869312902","authorId":"4161990869312902","name":"Large Caps","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4161990869312902","authorIdStr":"4161990869312902"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"&nbsp;

So far, my calls have aged well, as far as I can tell.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8a830c579187e1631a10d69a2c1c12fe\" alt=\"Seeking Alpha, my coverage of NIO stock\" title=\"Seeking Alpha, my coverage of NIO stock\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"238\"/><span>Seeking Alpha, my coverage of NIO stock</span></p><p>A few hours ago from the moment I sat down to write today&#39;s article, NIO presented its Q3 FY2023 report and the company&#39;s management commented in detail on the work done and the next plans. So I decided to take another look at NIO to put my old thesis to the test.</p><h2 id=\"id_3298937044\">Financials, Developments, And Valuation</h2><p>In Q3 FY2023, NIO delivered 55,432 vehicles, reflecting a notable 75.4% increase from Q3 FY2022 and a remarkable 135.7% jump from Q2 FY2023. The substantial growth was driven by the delivery of 37,585 premium smart electric SUVs and 17,847 premium smart electric sedans. Financially, NIO reported a significant increase in vehicle sales, reaching RMB 17,408.9 million ($2,386.1 million) for Q3 2023, marking a 45.9% rise from the same period in 2022 and an impressive 142.3% surge from the previous quarter. NIO&#39;s vehicle margin fell to 11.0% from 16.4% last year, while the strong gross margin fell to 8.0% from 13.34% in Q3 FY2022.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9199117cc3c6f18f4ac3a2f4d22fe8f9\" alt=\"Excel, author&#39;s work, NIO&#39;s data\" title=\"Excel, author&#39;s work, NIO&#39;s data\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"330\"/><span>Excel, author&#39;s work, NIO&#39;s data</span></p><p>While experiencing a decrease in gross profit compared to Q3 2022, the third quarter of 2023 saw a substantial increase of 1,650.9% from Q2 2023, reaching RMB 1,523.3 million ($208.8 million). However, the operating loss was still quite impressive: it fell by 21% quarter-on-quarter, but was 22% higher than in the previous year:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ed9360537e87e706cd8fc108ada88137\" alt=\"Excel, author&#39;s work, NIO&#39;s data\" title=\"Excel, author&#39;s work, NIO&#39;s data\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"385\"/><span>Excel, author&#39;s work, NIO&#39;s data</span></p><p>The net loss for Q3 2023 was RMB 4,556.7 million ($624.6 million), marking a 10.8% increase from Q3 2022, but a substantial 24.8% decrease from Q2 2023. Adjusted for share-based compensation expenses, the non-GAAP adjusted net loss was RMB 3,953.2 million ($541.8 million), indicating a 13.0% increase from Q3 2022, but a substantial 27.4% decrease from Q2 2023.</p><p>In September 2023, NIO launched the All-New EC6, a second-generation mid-sized coupe SUV, completing its product line on the NT2.0 platform. They also introduced China&#39;s first vehicle operating system, SkyOS, and an in-house-developed LiDAR SoC named Yang Jian. In terms of assisted and intelligent driving, NIO released the Power Swap Pilot for Highway beta on November 15th, seamlessly integrating NLP+ and Power Swap for an automated and intelligent highway driving and battery-swapping experience. Regarding the battery-swapping alliance, NIO announced cooperation agreements with Changan and Geely, emphasizing the network effect and potential for sustainable business models. The company plans to expand its power swap network, with potential CapEx and consideration of introducing partners who will hold the battery swap station assets.</p><p>As of September 30, 2023, NIO had RMB 45.2 billion ($6.2 billion) in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investment, and long-term time deposits. So NIO may theoretically cover 2 years of operations with its liquidity, which is still not enough for the scaling goals it has set for itself. So in my humble opinion, raising new rounds of investment at the expense of existing shareholders is just a matter of time.</p><p>In September and October 2023, the company has already completed an offering of convertible senior notes, raising a total of $1.15 billion. Following the pricing of the new notes, the company used a portion of the net proceeds (approximately US$500 million) to repurchase some of its existing convertible senior notes due in 2026 and 2027 through privately negotiated transactions. The purpose of the repurchase was to retire some of the existing debt using the newly raised funds. The company intends to use the remaining net proceeds (not used for the repurchase) to strengthen its balance sheet and for general corporate purposes.</p><p>NIO makes attempts to lower its costs. As was mentioned during the Q&amp;A session on the recent earnings call, NIO is set to acquire some production facility assets from JAC, and there will be around a 10% reduction in manufacturing costs when bringing the entire manufacturing process in-house. But this 10% reduction in production costs seems to me like a drop in the bucket compared to the absolute costs that the company still incurs today.</p><p>As far as I can see, NIO&#39;s financials have improved in the third quarter compared to the second quarter, but strong competition in the industry will likely continue to limit the company&#39;s pricing flexibility and it will take longer for the company to regain its previous margins. Perhaps the majority of market participants came to the same conclusion by selling shares after the post-earnings rip:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/636ea876c43fc31ac13bb73bcb611cc7\" alt=\"Seeking Alpha News\" title=\"Seeking Alpha News\" tg-width=\"357\" tg-height=\"315\"/><span>Seeking Alpha News</span></p><p>Looking at the latest earnings projections by Wall Street, we see that as of December 6, 2023, EPS estimates for FY2023 and FY2024 are -$1.53 and -$0.84, compared to -$1.44 and -$0.78 on October 16, 2023.

(NYSE:NIO) stock here on Seeking Alpha since November 2022. I have rated the stock a 'Sell' from the beginning and have confirmed this again and again, last updating my coverage of the stock in September 2023. So far, my calls have aged well, as far as I can tell.Seeking Alpha, my coverage of NIO stockA few hours ago from the moment I sat down to write today's article, NIO presented its Q3 FY2023 report and the company's management commented in detail on the work done and the next plans. So I decided to take another look at NIO to put my old thesis to the test.Financials, Developments, And ValuationIn Q3 FY2023, NIO delivered 55,432 vehicles, reflecting a notable 75.4% increase from Q3 FY2022 and a remarkable 135.7% jump from Q2 FY2023. The substantial growth was driven by the delivery of 37,585 premium smart electric SUVs and 17,847 premium smart electric sedans. Financially, NIO reported a significant increase in vehicle sales, reaching RMB 17,408.9 million ($2,386.1 million) for Q3 2023, marking a 45.9% rise from the same period in 2022 and an impressive 142.3% surge from the previous quarter. NIO's vehicle margin fell to 11.0% from 16.4% last year, while the strong gross margin fell to 8.0% from 13.34% in Q3 FY2022.Excel, author's work, NIO's dataWhile experiencing a decrease in gross profit compared to Q3 2022, the third quarter of 2023 saw a substantial increase of 1,650.9% from Q2 2023, reaching RMB 1,523.3 million ($208.8 million). However, the operating loss was still quite impressive: it fell by 21% quarter-on-quarter, but was 22% higher than in the previous year:Excel, author's work, NIO's dataThe net loss for Q3 2023 was RMB 4,556.7 million ($624.6 million), marking a 10.8% increase from Q3 2022, but a substantial 24.8% decrease from Q2 2023. Adjusted for share-based compensation expenses, the non-GAAP adjusted net loss was RMB 3,953.2 million ($541.8 million), indicating a 13.0% increase from Q3 2022, but a substantial 27.4% decrease from Q2 2023.In September 2023, NIO launched the All-New EC6, a second-generation mid-sized coupe SUV, completing its product line on the NT2.0 platform. They also introduced China's first vehicle operating system, SkyOS, and an in-house-developed LiDAR SoC named Yang Jian. In terms of assisted and intelligent driving, NIO released the Power Swap Pilot for Highway beta on November 15th, seamlessly integrating NLP+ and Power Swap for an automated and intelligent highway driving and battery-swapping experience. Regarding the battery-swapping alliance, NIO announced cooperation agreements with Changan and Geely, emphasizing the network effect and potential for sustainable business models. The company plans to expand its power swap network, with potential CapEx and consideration of introducing partners who will hold the battery swap station assets.As of September 30, 2023, NIO had RMB 45.2 billion ($6.2 billion) in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investment, and long-term time deposits. So NIO may theoretically cover 2 years of operations with its liquidity, which is still not enough for the scaling goals it has set for itself. So in my humble opinion, raising new rounds of investment at the expense of existing shareholders is just a matter of time.In September and October 2023, the company has already completed an offering of convertible senior notes, raising a total of $1.15 billion. Following the pricing of the new notes, the company used a portion of the net proceeds (approximately US$500 million) to repurchase some of its existing convertible senior notes due in 2026 and 2027 through privately negotiated transactions. The purpose of the repurchase was to retire some of the existing debt using the newly raised funds. The company intends to use the remaining net proceeds (not used for the repurchase) to strengthen its balance sheet and for general corporate purposes.NIO makes attempts to lower its costs. As was mentioned during the Q&A session on the recent earnings call, NIO is set to acquire some production facility assets from JAC, and there will be around a 10% reduction in manufacturing costs when bringing the entire manufacturing process in-house. But this 10% reduction in production costs seems to me like a drop in the bucket compared to the absolute costs that the company still incurs today.As far as I can see, NIO's financials have improved in the third quarter compared to the second quarter, but strong competition in the industry will likely continue to limit the company's pricing flexibility and it will take longer for the company to regain its previous margins. Perhaps the majority of market participants came to the same conclusion by selling shares after the post-earnings rip:Seeking Alpha NewsLooking at the latest earnings projections by Wall Street, we see that as of December 6, 2023, EPS estimates for FY2023 and FY2024 are -$1.53 and -$0.84, compared to -$1.44 and -$0.78 on October 16, 2023. That is, after the report was released, the consensus numbers crawled lower, which is an overall negative point. The positive for NIO is that this downward trend only affected 2 forecast years and was not too severe. However, the dynamics of the revenue forecast show significantly worse results:Seeking Alpha, NIO's Earnings RevisionsThe company cannot be valued based on FCF, as it is a growth company whose first positive earnings per share are forecasted to appear in 2027. More precisely, it is theoretically possible to build a DCF model, but such calculations have no practical meaning due to their strong sensitivity to a too uncertain future. What we can do is take a look at NIO's multiples. Seeking Alpha's Quant System gives NIO a 'C-' Valuation grade, meaning that the stock is no longer as overvalued as it was 3 months ago. However, apart from the sales-related multiples, which are indeed modest, we don’t even have a forward EV/EBITDA. Based on a combination of various SA Quant metrics, the company ranks among the last in its industry.Seeking Alpha, NIO's Valuation page, author's notesIn my opinion, NIO looks overvalued with a price-to-book ratio of over 6x and an operating loss of over $660M for just one quarter.
