AMD Stock Drops Despite CES News

AMD Chief Executive Lisa Su said the company's new notebook processors will offer a big performance boost over its current-generation chips. The new chips are built with 6-nanometer process technology by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing.

"The performance is just amazing," Su said. "We are delivering an average of 1.3 (times) faster performance compared to the 5000 series across a wide range of compute-intensive benchmarks."

AMD also previewed its next-generation processors, the Ryzen 7000 series. Those chips will use 5-nanometer process technology and are set for availability in the second half of 2022.

In morning trading on the stock market today, AMD stock dropped 5.5%, near 142.
