AMD isn't a meme stock - I knew it was going to be a safe bet when it was at 5, but didn't have money to do anything with it.

It is guaranteed to exist, as it is the only x86 competitor to Intel, and IIRC their x86 license is non-transferable.

It is nvidia's only main competitor.

It does its job pretty well.

Is it a blue chip in terms of stability? Clearly it is a bit more volatile. But it isn't dying anytime soon.
