AMD in my opinion needs mobile first more than ever, trying to build trust and relationships with the server groups and IT people will take more time and a much more stable platform than Ryzen has shown itself to be so far.
Desktop sales are niche these days, even businesses are buying laptops or dog bottom Intel i3 chips; with a lot of the computing and heavy lifting being done on the servers (cloud, etc).
I know it's hard for people in these forums that live and die by a few FPS difference on a graph, but in the big-boy world a platform's stability, reliability, cost (including power) and long term support are what count; and AMD have yet to show that with Ryzen so far. Just look at the lack of support from HP, Dell, etc. And that's what investors see here.
So in summary, Ryzen performs great (much better than expected even), but stability, long term support, and support from vendors aren't there. Ryzen has shown itself to be perhaps a viable alternative to some Intel offerings, but not a reason to go away from Intel.
