The BRVX AMD perp tracks the share price in USDT with no expiry.
AMD reports in late January, April, July and early November. Its Advancing AI event is where new Instinct GPUs and customers are unveiled; the MI-series roadmap and big customer names move the stock most.
What moves AMD
AMD is an AI challenger story.

Long or short AMD?
An AMD long bets on AI GPU orders and server-CPU share gains against Intel.
