How do share prices go up?

A company's share price typically rises when more investors want to buy its shares than sell them. This increased demand can be driven by positive news, strong financial results, or, as in AMD's case, a surge in interest for the industry it operates in, like artificial intelligence. Higher demand pushes the price per share upwards.
