AI partnership with Meta bolsters multi-year growth and sector positioning

AMD has entered a multi-year strategic partnership with Meta Platforms to supply up to 6 gigawatts of AMD GPUs and EPYC CPUs for Meta's AI data centers. The agreement allows Meta to acquire up to 160 million AMD shares through a performance-based warrant, and the first gigawatt of GPU deployment is expected in the second half of 2026. Company management indicated that the deal will drive significant multi-year revenue growth and be accretive to adjusted earnings per share, further enhancing AMD's position in the AI infrastructure space.

Persistent bearish signals amid strong session volatility and weak momentum

Short-term momentum for AMD remains weak, as the MACD signals a sell and the ADX on the daily chart points to a lack of trend strength. Indicators such as RSI (37.66), Stochastic RSI (22.51), and CCI (-79.57) underscore a continued oversold and bearish environment, while Bull/Bear Power confirms seller dominance on the intraday timeframe. Today’s session opened with a sharp gap up and, after an upward move of 6.80%, the price sits near the session’s midpoint, reflecting high volatility and ongoing consolidation. There is a notable divergence between the strong daily move and persistent weak momentum signals.

Rangebound outlook as upside risks remain subdued near key resistance

For the coming week, AMD is expected to trade in a range between $200 and $220, in line with its typical volatility band relative to current levels. The probability of further price increases remains low (less than 20%), while a pullback or sideways drift appears more likely. In the base case, AMD stays in a consolidation corridor between $200 and $220; a bullish breakout would require a sustained close above the $228.81 resistance level, while a bearish scenario would bring prices back toward longer-term support near $200.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees AMD under pressure in the short term despite positive fundamental news. Technical indicators remain bearish, with momentum weak and price capped by resistance at $228.81. The long-term partnership with Meta adds fundamental value but is unlikely to immediately shift the technical setup. "Base case remains sideways between $200 and $220 — without a break above $228.81, upside looks limited."

Previously it was reported that Advanced Micro Devices Inc traded below its short- and medium-term moving averages, indicating ongoing bearish pressure, while maintaining support well above the longer-term 200-day average. Despite strong intraday price gains and high volatility, key momentum indicators such as MACD, RSI, and oscillators continue to signal weak or oversold conditions, suggesting the recent rally may lack broad technical confirmation and faces resistance near the Ichimoku Kijun level.
