On January 3, 2018, following reports that processor chips manufactured by AMD's competitor, Intel Corporation, contained a major security flaw—known as the "Spectre" vulnerability—AMD advised investors that while its own chips were vulnerable to one variant of Spectre, there was "near zero risk" that AMD chips were vulnerable to the second Spectre variant.  Then, on January 11, 2018, post-market, AMD acknowledged that its chips were, in fact, susceptible to both variants of the Spectre security flaw.  On this news, AMD's share price has fallen sharply during intraday trading on January 12, 2018.
