Super Micro Computers will also release after the close. Recall a few weeks ago, the stock tumbled some 23% after the company did not preannounce earnings. Since then the stock has nearly retraced the entire decline (from $928 to the high today of $910.84 before rotating lower The current price is at $866.69)

After the last earnings, the company’s forecast called for $3.7 billion to $4.1 billion in revenue and EPS of $5.20 to $6.01 in adjusted earnings per share.

The consensus view is for:

  • Revenue of $4.0 billion
  • EPS of $5.74.

AMD will also release with expectations of:

  • EPS of $0.61
  • Revenue of $5.45 billion.

That would mark a slight increase from the same quarter last year when AMD reported EPS of $0.60 on revenue of $5.35 billion.
