(Reuters) - Advanced Micro Devices on Wednesday announced a new $6 billion stock buyback plan, joining a string of chipmakers that are looking to reduce their float as the AI trade that has powered their shares shows some signs of slowing.
Shares of the Santa Clara, California-based company rose as much as 6.4%. Its shares have fallen more than 6% so far this year, compared with a less than 1% drop for the benchmark Philadelphia Semiconductor Index.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
