AMD rises, Intel falters and Google surges
 

CHIP GIANT Intel saw its share price wobble to close at $25.81 today, while little underling AMD's share price gained $1.10 to close at $29.22. Newly floated AMD protege Spansion (tick: SPSN) did little but float in the doldrums.

AMD's rise left Wall Street analysts in something of a daze. Or perhaps it was because of the strike on the New York subway that AMD soared. Intel opened at $25.79 so was up three cents at close space on NASDAQ, which is computer based, unlike much of the New York Stock Exchange, where AMD is listed.
