Stock's responding to news of new CEO. But, stock has underperformed. Manufacturing challenges, increased competition. Revenue growth seems flat. He owns Nvidia and Taiwan Semiconductor, so you could look at those.
Has lost its dominance. A difficult stock to own. He prefers other names such as AMD. Manufacturing is just not good enough compared to the competition.
It has stumbled this year--and that's why he loves it. Product launches stumbled, too slow. Also Apple and Amazon are talking about making their own chips. However, Intel remains the biggest chipmaker in the world. It trades at 10x earnings, 3% dividend yield, and offers a massive free cash flow and valuation is so low. Intel will move to a hybrid model when they will no longer manufacture everything. This will free up some cash for buybacks. (Analysts’ price target is $53.49)

Premium contentStockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Fresh buying by a key investment fund and a re-iterated buy with a $60 price target by another is bringing INTC back into favour. With a PE of only 9x, compared to the sector average of 71x, it is good value now. Another catalyst is the announcement that Dish Network will use their products for their 5G roll out. It pays a good dividend, backed by a 25% payout ratio. We would buy this with a $40 stop-loss, looking to achieve $58 – 24% upside. Yield 2.91% (Analysts’ price target is $57.83)
The issues is that the market has been challenging for them. Their recent results were horrendous. Data centres are not doing well, and this was their bright spot. AMD reported great numbers, so it is the company that is not preforming. AMD is also ahead of Intel for technology and they will probably erode marketshare from Intel.

A mature business that is in many ways a market leader in semiconductor and miniaturization. However in many ways it has struggled in the transition from desktop to miniaturized conductors. AMD has really succeeded here. Does not think it is well positioned for the mobile side where growth is coming from. They do pay a good dividend. It is all about entry price.
