This summary was created by AI, based on 29 opinions in the last 12 months.

Intel (INTC-Q) faces a mixed outlook among experts, highlighting both its potential for recovery and its ongoing challenges. While some analysts praise the significant turnaround under the new CEO, attributing a 321% rally in shares and robust growth in CPU demand, others express caution, emphasizing overvaluation and fierce competition, particularly from TSM and Nvidia. The recent involvement of the US government has been noted both positively and skeptically, with the consensus that this support may not address fundamental issues with the company. Challenges include execution failures, talent retention, and the inability to meet CPU demand, leading to a significant stock price fluctuation. Overall, while there are optimistic projections for its potential and a strong domestic market position, uncertainties surrounding its future performance remain prominent.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 09/19, Up 7%) It’s acting well. Would continue to own it here. It’s on its way back to the $60s.
HOLD

Cheap at 10.5x PE 2020, and pays a good dividend. They beat their Q2, guiding above the street. They saw a cyclical bottom in the first half of 2019, but the China-US war has worsened since then. They're selling their modem business to Apple. An okay play for the valuation, but there's no growth to 2020. Look elsewhere for better growth. It's fine if you hold it, but don't add to it.

DON'T BUY

The competitors, like AMD-Q, have reduced gross margins. She is not stepping in because of that.

BUY

Your tech pick They're large and diversified and a leader in this space, though the fear is that AMD's faster processors will take away some market share. As a value investor, he shies away from Salesforce and Amazon, the high flyers with huge multiples. Intel pays a good dividend.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 17/18, Up 2%) He still feels it is cheap and the balance sheet is strong. He likes the dividend yield. He would still buy at this point. His model price is almost $90 -- huge upside.
WAIT

Chip space volatile, but has done well in last years. Chip cycle is tied to the economic cycle. The IBM of the chip space. Now is not the time to own the chips. Nice yield of about 2.5%.

WAIT
Lowered guidance. Exiting the 5G market. Data centre business is weak. Very little growth forecast. No reasons to buy. It is cheap, nice dividend, good quality. Probably a good buy once trade wars settle and China growth strengthens. Dead money here. If you own it, sell some calls. Few catalysts to grow.
TOP PICK
He looks for a stock that's in a rough moment and this one is. It's testing its 100-week moving average of $47.75 and it closed right at it. This is super volatile. It's tested a shoulder, bounced back a little, and is now testing an important part. It's collapsed from $60. $50 is the first stop of some sort and momentum could carry this to the mid-$50's. (Analysts’ price target is $52.24)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 26/18, Down 5%) Still loves this despite pressure on chips due to the China-US trade war. $83.07 is his model price, 77% higher than current prices. Intel isn't as cyclical as its peers. You may need to wait for the next cycle in semis though.
TOP PICK
Good support level currently. His model price is $83 and pays a dividend of 2.6%. You can ride out of the semis storm with this--it's relatively stable. Certainly buy more at $37. (Analysts’ price target is $53.13)
DON'T BUY
Trades at a reasonable multiple. It's a mature market. Gross margins won't expand. They are getting hit by the new China tariffs.
WATCH
The chart is a rounded-U formation in the past 12 months. It looks a little oversold, and has broken a short-term trendline. It will probably land to $45. Wait till it consolidates. Maybe the worst is over. There isn't a real direction, so keep an eye on it.
DON'T BUY
They issued weak guidance in Q2. There's a backdrop of US-China trade tensions hurting demand. Expect at least one more quarter of negative earnings
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 25/18, Up 16%) There's a new CEO. This old-tech stock has done very well. He's long recommended it.
TOP PICK
He sees 60% upside and it's starting to move up. $64.50 is his price target. (Analysts’ price target is $55.22)
