A massive insider purchase just hit Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), and it’s raising eyebrows across Wall Street.
Philip Guido, AMD’s Chief Commercial Officer, bought nearly $1 million worth of AMD shares on May 20, marking the stock’s largest insider buy since November 2006. Insider activity like this is often seen as a signal of confidence — especially when it’s this large.
While AMD is still trading about 39% off its 52-week highs, it has quietly outperformed over the past 3 months, gaining 13.8% while the broader market slipped.
Here’s Why Traders Are Taking Notice
- Barchart just triggered a bullish 20/100-day moving average crossover for AMD on May 27
- The stock’s put/call open interest ratio is falling, which may suggest bullish accumulation
- AMD is gearing up for a June 12 AI event hosted by CEO Lisa Su, highlighting new developments in artificial intelligence
- Even politicians like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Ro Khanna are buying the dip
Add it all up, and it’s clear that AMD is becoming a key stock to watch in the AI semiconductor subsector heading into the summer.
