Technicals
From a technical standpoint, AMD has confirmed that it has resumed the uptrend by breaking above the September peak. The stock now shows strong support near the September high, around $94. Further support is found slightly below it from a confluence created by the 20-Day moving average and the lower line of a rising trend channel. In addition to the technical chart, AMD has been steadily outperforming the semiconductor index (SOX) and Intel (INTC) for four years.

If you agree there's further upside ahead for AMD, consider this trade which relies on the stock remaining above $96 through the expiration in five weeks.
Buy To Open AMD 22JAN21 93 Puts (AMD210122P93)
Sell To Open AMD 22JAN21 96 Puts (AMD210122P96) for a credit of $1.10 (selling a vertical)
This credit is $0.02 less than the mid-point of the option spread when AMD was trading near $96. Unless the stock rallies quickly from here, you should be able to get close to this amount.
Your commission on this trade will be only $1.30 per spread. Each spread would then yield $108.70. This reduces your buying power by $300 and makes your investment $191.30 ($300 – $108.70). If AMD closes at any price above $96 on January 22, both options will expire worthless, and your return on the spread would be 57% ($108.70 / $191.30), or 650% annualized.
