Intel and AMD catch the AI wave as spending booms — ride the chip rally
Created
Thesis
Despite jitters about the 'Magnificent Seven' stocks, the broader tech market—specifically chipmakers—added $2 trillion in value last quarter. When this chip strength is combined with Goldman Sachs' observation that a generational boom in capital spending is driving the bull market, it suggests investors are rotating from overvalued mega-cap stocks into the infrastructure suppliers of AI. As long as corporate spending on AI remains robust, this momentum in chip stocks should continue.
Strategy approach
Build a trend-following strategy on AMD and INTC using D1 timeframe. Enter long when the stock closes above its 50-day moving average and the broader semiconductor index (SOXX) closes in the green for the week. Exit on a 7% trailing stop or if the stock drops below its 20-day low.
