Advanced Micro Devices Blasted After Q1 Sales Miss

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. AMD shares are trading lower by $2.41 (17 percent) at $11.21 in Tuesday's session.

Despite inline Q1 EPS, the stock is being throttled for its slight revenue miss of $4 million. At this time, the Street may be lamenting that an 18 percent revenue growth didn't instigate a substantial sales beat.
