On Thursday, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) CEO Lisa Su hosted Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick for a key discussion with industry leaders. The Commerce Department stated that the American tech stack is the "gold standard" and that U.S. firms dominate high-value segments such as chip architecture and AI compute. The administration has also imposed a 25% tariff on select high-end AI chips from companies like Nvidia and AMD due to national security concerns and the need to increase domestic production. Despite these efforts, AMD shares closed at $203.77 and rose 0.75% to $205.30 in after-hours trading.
