The agentic AI era approaches    <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Analysts at <strong>Bank of America<\/strong> expect the global server central processing unit (CPU) market to grow almost fivefold to over $170 billion by 2030, driven by a forthcoming boom in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fool.com\/terms\/a\/agentic-ai\/?utm_source=yahoo-host-full&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=article&amp;referring_guid=6bc2ed62-c5b7-4406-8271-0a11cf7c16a2\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:agentic AI;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;agentic AI&quot;}\" class=\"link \">agentic AI<\/a> applications.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">While AI model training largely relies on graphics processing units (GPUs) designed by the likes of <strong>Nvidia<\/strong>, CPUs perform well during certain segments of AI agent workflows, such as control logic, plan execution, coordination, and scheduling.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Intel and AMD dominate the server CPU market, making them well-positioned to profit from this global megatrend. Yet Arm also stands to benefit. The chip architecture developer recently unveiled its new AGI CPU, which is specifically designed to power next-gen AI infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>      More ways for investors to profit    <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Bank of America&#8217;s analysts are also optimistic about Intel&#8217;s foundry business. In addition to designing and building its own chips, Intel has opened its chip manufacturing services to other tech giants. Intel is reportedly in discussions with <strong>Apple<\/strong> to potentially make some of the chips in its popular devices.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Meanwhile, analysts at <strong>Citigroup<\/strong> believe AMD could wrestle away some market share from Nvidia in the GPU arena, driven in part by its chip supply deals with social media and AI powerhouse <strong>Meta Platforms<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>      Should you buy stock in Advanced Micro Devices right now?    <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Before you buy stock in\u00a0Advanced Micro Devices, consider this:<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The Motley Fool\u00a0Stock Advisor\u00a0analyst team just identified what they believe are the\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/api.fool.com\/infotron\/infotrack\/click?apikey=35527423-a535-4519-a07f-20014582e03e&amp;impression=bd220e12-5449-468e-9c2a-a3ac3ec0acb5&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fool.com%2Fmms%2Fmark%2Fe-sa-bbn-bn%3Faid%3D8867%26source%3Disaeditxt0001213%26ftm_cam%3Dsa-bbn-evergreen%26ftm_veh%3Darticle_pitch_feed_yahoo%26ftm_pit%3D19383&amp;utm_source=yahoo-host-full&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=article&amp;referring_guid=6bc2ed62-c5b7-4406-8271-0a11cf7c16a2\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:10 best stocks;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;10 best stocks&quot;}\" class=\"link \">10 best stocks<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0for investors to buy now\u2026 and\u00a0Advanced Micro Devices\u00a0wasn\u2019t one of them.\u00a0The 10 stocks that made the cut are built for long-term growth and could produce monster returns in the coming years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\"><strong>Consider when\u00a0<strong>Netflix<\/strong>\u00a0made this list on December 17, 2004&#8230; if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation,\u00a0<strong>you\u2019d have $438,283<\/strong>!*\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Or\u00a0when\u00a0<strong>Nvidia<\/strong>\u00a0made this list on April 15, 2005&#8230; if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation,\u00a0<strong>you\u2019d have $1,257,427<\/strong>!*<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">That performance is why people listen.
