## Summary

Advanced Micro Devices' stock jumped 9% on Monday, pushing the share price to an intraday high of $613.92 and lifting the company's market value just above $1 trillion. The move extends a five‑day winning streak that has added roughly 24% to the share price.

The rally follows AMD's second‑quarter earnings, where revenue rose to $11.54 billion, a 50% increase from $7.69 billion a year earlier, driven largely by artificial‑intelligence chips. The Data Center unit posted $6.7 billion in sales, up 107% year over year. Despite the surge, AMD remains far behind AI‑chip leader Nvidia, whose market cap sits around $5.4 trillion.

## Key points
