Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD) stock’s performance in 2024 has been a major surprise. The equity entered the year strong, rallying approximately 40% between January and March, but then entered a downtrend it hasn’t escaped to date.
Such performance has been somewhat strange as it came at a time when AMD was posting strong earnings reports and consistently beating analyst forecasts, all the while being praised for largely closing the previous technical gaps compared to Nvidia’s (NASDAQ: NVDA) products.
Nonetheless, the positive developments failed to turn the tide for the stock, which dropped another 18.64% in 2025 to $98.28 – one of its lowest prices since 2023.

Under the circumstances, Finbold decided to consult the advanced DeepSeek (R1) artificial intelligence (AI) model about whether Advanced Micro Devices will overcome the downturn before the year is over or if selling while the price is relatively high is the right call.
DeepSeek sets AMD stock price target for December 31, 2025
As it quickly turned out, DeepSeek assessed AMD’s positioning as highly favorable.
Specifically, the AI examined Advanced Micro Devices’ new lineup of products, such as the RX 9000 series, which is reportedly selling very rapidly, and the overall positive launch when juxtaposed with Nvidia’s lackluster GPU launched, market by supply shortages.
DeepSeek also reflected on AMD’s growing partnerships with cloud providers such as Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) and Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL) as likely to, paired with the MI350/MI300X accelerators, enable the world’s other semiconductor giant to capture significant market share in the coming months.
Moving from the technological and production side, the AI also examined AMD’s financials, opining that they are backed by substantial momentum while describing margins as ‘improving.’
Despite the general bullish tone, DeepSeek also reflected on the risk factors with a particular emphasis on supply chain disruptions arising from factors like the escalating trade war between the U.S. and much of the world.
Still, the AI was quick to disregard these issues as ephemeral and described them as likely countered by the robust network of partnerships. It also explained that other macroeconomic headwinds are likely priced in as of March 2025.
All things considered, DeepSeek concluded that AMD shares are likely to climb to $135 by December 31, 2025, meaning they will probably enjoy a 37.36% total rally this year.
