I should mention that we had an open position in Advanced Micro Devices in our SmallCap Network Elite Opportunity (SCN EO) portfolio from last summer up until late January when we locked in a small loss.

With that in mind, here is a quick look at some important recent news about AMD before it reports earnings next week:
