AMD sees AI chip market exceeding $500 billion by 2028
Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) Chief Executive Lisa Su has said that the chipmaker sees the artificial intelligence processor market topping $500 billion by 2028. The Silicon Valley company said the market is likely to grow at over 60 per cent annually to exceed USD 500 billion, from being a $45 billion opportunity in 2023. Addressing the company's flagship Advancing AI 2025 conference here on Thursday, Su said the growth will be led by the inferencing work, which is a shift from training. "What I can tell you based on everything that we see today is that that number is going to be exceeding USD 500 billion by 2028," Su said. The company unveiled the "MI350 Series GPUs (graphic processing units)" at the flagship event along with a host of other products.
Su said opting for the newly launched chips may be beneficial for customers, claiming that they issue up to 40 per cent more tokens per dollar.
It can be noted that Nvidia is generally considered an entrenched player in the GPUs market, and the demand for its chips is very high. There are waiting periods as well for the chips. In her address, Su said that seven of the 10 largest AI customers, including the largest Indian telco Reliance Jio, are deploying AMD Instinct Accelerators at present. AMD had last year announced the MI350 and announced that the same offering, which has displayed a four-times increase in compute as compared to the previous generation, is in production now and will be commercially available from the third quarter onwards.
During her address, Su spoke with a slew of clients and partners, including OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman, and senior executives from other companies like Meta, Microsoft and Oracle. Su said the company is focused on open architecture as a fundamental tenet in its approach to serving the AI world, an aspect which is different from the approach adopted by Nvidia. The company also launched a developer cloud access programme, under which it will grant access to the developer community to try and use its offerings first-hand. Su said the company believes that innovation happens faster when something is thrown open for the developers, and backed it up by citing examples from history as well.
It also showcased the 'Helios AI Rack Scale' solution, a fully integrated AI platform and announced that the same will be available from the next year onwards.

Household savings in India drop to 18.1% of GDP in FY24: CareEdge Ratings
India's household savings continued their downward trajectory for the third straight year, slipping to 18.1 per cent of GDP in financial year 2024 (FY24), as per CareEdge Ratings. The report added that Gross domestic savings declined to 30.7 per cent of GDP in FY24 from 32.2 per cent in FY15. On the other hand, household financial liabilities surged to 6.2 per cent of GDP, nearly doubling over the past decade, reflecting growing reliance on credit amid consumption needs, the report observed. It highlights that despite the concerning savings trend, rural India offers a silver lining. Wage growth for rural male workers rose by 6.1 per cent year-on-year in February, outpacing rural inflation for the fourth consecutive month. This, along with easing food inflation and favourable agricultural prospects, is supporting rural demand recovery, the report added. Rural consumer confidence , hovering around the neutral 100 mark, reflects a cautious optimism. In contrast, urban consumer confidence remains in pessimistic territory, though expectations for the year ahead remain upbeat across both segments, the report added. Live Events In the broader economy, labour cost growth for major IT firms has slowed significantly from a peak of 26 per cent in Q3 FY23 to just 4 per cent in Q3 FY25, highlighting a broader trend of cost rationalisation in the corporate sector, as per the observations of the report. On the inflation front, CPI eased to 3.2 per cent in April 2025, the lowest since August 2019. However, high prices of edible oils (17.4 per cent) and fruits (13.8 per cent) continue to keep overall food inflation in check. The upcoming Rabi harvest, healthy reservoir levels, and forecast of above-normal monsoon rains are expected to further support food price stability, the report added. "Going ahead, RBI policy rate cuts , lower tax burden and continued easing of price pressures remain key tailwinds for the broad-based demand recovery," the report said As per the government data, the Indian economy grew by 6.5 per cent in real terms in the recently concluded financial year 2024-25.

Nifty Tomorrow, June 16: How Will Israel-Iran War Impact Markets? Experts Analyse, Give Key Levels
Last Updated: The Israel-Iran conflict causes market pessimism, with both Nifty and Sensex dropping nearly 1% each. Despite this, the broader market uptrend remains intact. Nifty Prediction For Tomorrow, June 16: The ongoing Israel-Iran war has fuelled pessimism in the stock markets and prompted investors to flee riskier assets. Sparked after Israel's attack on Iran's nuclear facilities in the wee hours of Friday, the conflict has further deepened with both sides upping the ante. Market experts said that though investors are expected to remain cautious amid premium valuations and geopolitical risks, the 'boarder market uptrend remains intact" on the BSE and the NSE. According to the experts, all eyes are now on the upcoming US Fed meeting, where interest rates are likely to remain unchanged. Other central banks, Japan and the UK, will also announce their interest rates this week separately. Ketan Vikam, head of sales at Almondz Institutional Equities, said, 'Indian stock markets are likely to follow the global trend, following rising tension in the Middle East amid the Israel-Iran conflict, which could fuel further pessimism and prompt investors to flee riskier assets." The Indian equity markets experienced a significant downturn this week, with the benchmark indices, NSE Nifty50 and BSE Sensex, declining nearly 1% to close at 24,718 and 81,118, respectively. How Are Indian Markets Placed? 'The index (Nifty) is still holding above the crucial 55-day EMA (exponential moving average) near 24,300, suggesting that the broader uptrend remains intact," said Puneet Singhania, director at Master Trust Group. The 55-week EMA is a technical indicator that shows the average price of a stock or index over the past 55 weeks, giving more weight to recent prices to spot long-term trends. It helps investors see the long-term trend of a stock or index by smoothing out weekly price ups and downs. Brokerage firm Choice Broking in its note said the Nifty is trading above all its key EMAs on the weekly timeframe, including the short-term (20-week), medium-term (50-week), and long-term (200-week) EMAs. 'This alignment indicates a strong underlying uptrend and suggests that the index is well-supported on dips, with bullish momentum likely to continue in the near term," it added. Key Support & Resistance Levels After Israel-Iran War Singhania said strong support lies in the 24,450–24,500 zone, a previously tested demand area. 'A breakdown below the mentioned support zone may lead to a decline toward 24,200, the recent weekly low." On the upside, immediate resistance is seen at 24,900; a decisive breakout above this level could trigger a rally toward 25,600. Positional traders can look to buy near support, he added. Support level is the price where a stock usually stops falling, while resistance level is where it often struggles to go higher. In other words, support is like a floor where prices tend to bounce up, and resistance is like a ceiling where prices often get stuck. Choice Broking said the Nifty has immediate support at 24,600 and 24,400, which could offer strong buying opportunities for traders on dips. On the upside, resistance is seen at 24,800 and 25,000, with the latter acting as a key hurdle. 'A sustained breakout above 25,200 could trigger a bullish rally, potentially targeting 25,500 and 25,700 in the coming weeks," it added. Market Volatility The India VIX, a key indicator of market volatility, surged by 7.60% to close at 15.0800 on the daily timeframe, reflecting a rise in market nervousness and indicating the possibility of heightened volatility in the near term. Open Chain Analysis In the derivatives segment, the highest call open interest (OI) is concentrated at the 24,800 and 25,000 strikes, suggesting strong resistance around these levels, Choice Broking said. On the downside, the highest Put Open Interest is seen at the 24,600 and 24,500 strikes, indicating strong support and traders' confidence in holding these levels, it added. Open interest (OI) shows the total number of active futures and options contracts in the market, helping investors gauge market strength and trend direction. Its analysis tells you how many traders are betting on a stock or index level, helping you understand if a price move or support/ resistance is strong or weak. What's Next? Looking ahead, investors are expected to remain cautious amid premium valuations and geopolitical risks. All eyes are now on the upcoming US Fed meeting, where interest rates are likely to remain unchanged. However, the Fed's commentary and economic projections will be closely scrutinised for future policy cues, said Vinod Nair, head of research, Geojit Investments Ltd. The Nifty futures, or the GIFT Nifty, closed flat or marginally higher by 3.5 points at 24,743 (as of June 15, 2025,at 2:44 am). Bank Nifty According to Choice Broking, the Bank Nifty is trading above all its key moving averages, including the short-term 20-day, medium-term 50-day, and long-term 200-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMA). This indicates an overall upward trend, but pressure from higher levels suggests that some consolidation phase is underway, and the index is unable to hold higher levels, with downside support near the 55,000-54,500 range. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 62.12, indicating a mild sideways to bearish move. However, the sideways movement suggests a phase of consolidation, potentially leading to a time-wise or price-wise correction as the index awaits fresh cues for the next directional move. 'The Bank Nifty index is likely to face significant resistance in the 56,000–56,500 range. If the index continues to move higher, HDFCBANK from the private banking sector is expected to support the uptrend. Similarly, in the public sector banking space, SBI is anticipated to show strength," it added. Markets Last Week The Indian equity markets ended the week sharply lower, with the Nifty 50 and the Sensex slipping nearly 1% to close at 24,718 and 81,118, respectively. The decline was mainly due to rising geopolitical tensions after Israel launched an airstrike on Iran's nuclear facilities, raising fears of a wider conflict. top videos View all Brent crude surged up to 12% to nearly $78 per barrel, triggering inflation concerns for India, a major oil importer. Higher oil prices also dimmed hopes of a US Fed rate cut ahead of its meeting next week. Further rattling global markets were renewed tariff threats by US President Donald Trump, effective July 9, sparking fears of a trade war. Foreign investors sold Indian equities worth Rs 1,246 crore, but strong domestic institutional buying of Rs 18,637 crore helped cushion the fall.

Taiwan export control: Adds Huawei and SMIC to list; Beijing's chip ambitions hit another wall
Taiwan has added Chinese tech giants Huawei Technologies and Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp (SMIC) to its export control list, as tensions over trade and technology continue to rise between China, the US, and the island. The move means Taiwanese firms must now seek special permits before exporting goods to either company. Taiwan's commerce ministry confirmed the updated list on Sunday, placing the two sanctioned Chinese chipmakers alongside groups such as the Taliban and al-Qaeda, as well as other entities from Iran and China. The list, officially titled the 'strategic high-tech commodities' export control list, is part of Taiwan's regulatory framework designed to protect sensitive technologies from falling into the hands of potentially hostile actors, AP reported. Neither Huawei nor SMIC have publicly responded to the latest restrictions. Both firms are already under US sanctions and have been central to Beijing's push for technological self-sufficiency. Despite curbs, they have forged ahead with the production of China's most advanced domestic AI chips, aiming to rival US-based Nvidia and support Chinese tech firms amid an intensifying global chip war. Taiwan's decision further highlights its delicate position in the global tech supply chain. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pinga-Pinga e HBP?

(TSMC), the world's largest contract chipmaker and a critical supplier for Nvidia. Last November, US ordered TSMC to stop shipping certain advanced chips to Chinese clients as part of broader efforts to slow China's access to leading-edge semiconductors. US is Taiwan's biggest unofficial ally and arms seller. Though the island country is self-ruled, China claims Taiwan to be its own territory, which it will annex by force, if needed.
