agree.
there were lots of pull backs for the past few years.
now it is far too late.
AMD should be bought on pull backs

we all made mistakes.
I used to consider buying when price was extremely extremely high.
In fact, I used the stupid foolish screener to sieve out stocks that were at
1 YEAR HIGH,
5 YEARS HIGH ...
of course after buying (even after pull back), price would collapse like hell.
and then I had to top up my trading account again (and again ...)
most likely OP is using similar stock screener.
Interestingly this particular stock screener has been around for decades.
there are 2 ways to look at this chart;
1. when price is so high, it will go even higher
2. when price is so high, it is too risky to buy now
the first case is where most people would think.

I wish I still owned this. I was a hardcore fanboy back in 1999. hence the name. Wish I had never sold that stock. What a fuckin roller coaster. Jerry Sanders used to be the CEO. That guy was a trip. Great stories about a great CEO 
. I can't remember the exact quote but it was along the lines of: "The salesman complain about pay. If the Engineers weren't there, they would have nothing."

But of course, as we know, technologies change, and so people follow the money. 20 years is a long time to be pissy about a company. Like being down on AMZN since 1999. How'd that work out for the naysayers?
as long as you get out on time sure, no debate there but they very often deflate like a balloon pretty quick and never recover. Microsoft took near ten years from memory to recover
I don't mean just a few indicators to value a company but long term it's vital to look at company financials.
Irrelevant as you're looking at the past and the market has changed a lot in just a year.
I'm shopping for a new system and Intel is in a bad spot. Only way it can compete is with price cuts. But even if they make the cuts, they cannot manage to ship their best products -- nothing available to buy. AMD readily available and outperforming Intel chips.
Intel 7nm fab is delayed a lot. Delays after delays. If it keeps going, they can run into serious problems. Not to mention Apple dropped Intel from their desktops. A few smaller ones have gone with ARM.
Half the cost? Maybe at the highest end with Threadrippers? Elsewhere AMD is ahead by nowhere near half the price, more like a 10-20% advantage.
