Investment banks from Bank of America to Wells Fargo to UBS point to rising demand from both data center expansion as well as AMD’s core graphic and central processing unit business as likely catalysts for the Santa Clara, Calif.-based chipmaker to surpass Wall Street estimates. Melius Research also noted that a resumption of shipments to China could serve as an additional tailwind. AMD is slated to report results after the stock market closes on Tuesday.

DuPont reported a solid quarter Tuesday morning, and the Club stock initially popped. Shares then pared their early gains as the broader market moved lower.
