I bought AMD products for Linux support, and even bought one share of their stock back in the 1st gen Ryzen days. I've stayed a customer and shareholder because I was happy that they weren't prioritizing AI. I'll be honest though lately some of their moves towards AI, and even that deal they made getting in on the OpenAI money circle bubble have left me questioning my continued support. Part of me wants to sell my share in protest, but I know that won't even be noticed. Another part of me wants to sell my share because it'll probably lose value when the bubble pops, but even if it went to zero I'd only be out around $30, and at this point, profiting even a couple hundred bucks off the AI bubble feels like taking blood money.

profiting even a couple hundred bucks off the AI bubble feels like taking blood money.

Think of it as scamming an AI bro out of a couple hundred bucks.

At this point in my life I've learned to just play the game. I hate the rule makers and want the rules changed, but you only hurt yourself if you don't play.

Invest in whatever you want. We don't really to read about people publicly trying to justify what stocks they want buy on a pcgaming sub. Its already turned into a weird tangent of one guy spouting off corporate talking points.

Dude, this is a discussion forum. I think people are allowed to discuss things.
