Meteoric rise? Are we watching the same stock? AMD has been flat/trending-down the last year. They're down nearly 20% from this time last year. Sure they went from $3.00 to nearly $11.50 in 2016 leading up to the Ryzen release, but the stock has absolutely leveled off since then.
Yes, I’m aware. Are you accusing them of inserting the flaw into AMD’s microprocessor or something? What’s the crime?
It isn’t remotely illegal to find flaws in a company’s products and attempt to profit of the publication by shorting (as long you don’t have any fiduciary obligation or NDA).
As I said in the discussion the other day, noting security problems in a processor that may arise after you've flashed the bios and/or firmware with different versions is like calling out Ford for engines that fail while on the.freeway when you replace the engine control software. If tied to stock market plays, I could see a case for market manipulation.
That there might be some real flaws in play may reduce this, but not to the point it means nithing, IMO.
