That isn't true.
1) Longing AMD your maximum loss is the amount you've invested in AMD.
2) Add an Intel short your maximum loss on the Intel position is without limit. Intel can go for a massive run for unforseen reasons completely separated from AMD and others in the industry, which is stunningly obvious right now.
is (1) + (2) can be a load more risk than just going long one stock.
