AMD is cutting back on shipments
-
AMD has announced that it is cutting the shipment of processors to adjust supply to demand to prevent prices from falling. The measure is taken after demand for PCs has fallen by 51% annually.

Is it true that they still have storage space left, because it is said that Intel has them full and will lower prices. Maybe now with the improvement of the Intel Arc GPUs plus the supposed improvement when using them with Intel CPUs, if they lower the micros by about 20% as distributors are said to want fewer AMD shipments for sure, or at least until AMD starts marketing its revised graphics with X3D. Everyone is talking about lowering prices. -
AMD's public relations people have jumped to say that what the CEO meant is that they are adapting to the excess inventory of minorities. They tell investors to look at how smart we are that we are squeezing our buyers to the last cent, but when it comes to light they have to go clean up the mess. They have been left embarrassed and on top of that this is today's bread and tomorrow's hunger.
In this case the market will provide. Since the pandemic, the sale of consumer electronics has skyrocketed due to lockdowns and excess savings. Now there are no lockdowns or excess savings and on top of that PC components no longer age as before. A very cold and very long winter awaits them. This strategy is a kick forward but sooner or later they will have to adapt prices to reality and reality is that people are well served with computers for a good season and there is less and less money for superfluous things.
