Semiconductor giant Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD) stock is up a solid 5.7% as of 2:05 p.m. ET Monday -- the first trading day after the Christmas break.

On the one hand, constrained chip supplies mean semiconductor makers can charge more money for their chips -- but only if they have enough manufacturing capacity to make those chips in the first place.

The Santa Claus rally is off to the best start in over 20 years and historically that bodes well for the entire seasonal period, Dow Jones data show.

Advanced Micro Devices opened higher on Monday and almost immediately gave us the rotation we were looking for. Now, I know new all-time highs by year-end sounds like a stretch — and it won't be easy — but all we need from here is a 7% rally.

Innovation stocks have entered “deep value territory,” Wood says.

Shares of Bridgebio Pharma (NASDAQ: BBIO), a clinical-stage biotechnology company, are getting crushed after the company reported a disappointing trial failure. Acoramidis is an experimental treatment that stabilizes a transport protein called transthyretin before it breaks up and leads to heart damage. Bridgebio Pharma stock is tanking today because a phase 3 trial with acoramidis and transthyretin mediated cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) patients suggests it doesn't improve outcomes nearly as well as the competition.

BridgeBio Pharma said Monday its Pfizer-rivaling heart disease drug failed in a late-stage test — and BBIO stock crashed to a record low.
