### Comment:
so Samsung is a chip maker (and not equipment maker I guess?) shit the bed along with Intel. Does this mean high probability AMD will go into shitter too in next week earnings?

### REPLY:
Samsung makes phones right? And other tech. So they use the chips that chip companies make. I actually know very little about Samsung as I’ve never looked at their business.  
  
 But no, AMD has not been reliant on broader movements in the semi space. It’s biggest moves have come from stealing market share from Intel and Nvidia. It might take a bit of an expectation hit after Intel’s earnings but it’s not a death knell.
