Intel (INTC)

Tricky. A buy, but price is a bit ahead of fundamentals. Driven by news around US government supporting it. Still a ways to go on its turnaround, but encouraging that US government and NVDA are involved. Still trying to optimize manufacturing capacity, while everyone else is expanding. Lots of wood still to chop. 

For her, it always falls short on upside. But she wouldn't be opposed to an investor buying here, especially on the pullback.

Yesterday, they delivered a decent quarter but lowered guidance. They can't make enough CPUs to meet demand; they planned incorrectly, lackluster execution. Shares sank 17% today.

It reports Thursday. It's been surging since the new CEO took over. Given the fierce competition in semis, Intel's earnings may not be big enough.

The former CEO nearly ran Intel into the ground with ambitious plans to build semis factories. but the new CEO got a bailout from Washington which bought a stake in the company. Shares rose last September and has made higher highs and higher lows ever since. On the chart, the MACD line is flashing buy. The On Balance Volume is steadily marching higher. But the RSI is in overbought territory. Lang targets $55 and eventually the high-$60s.

Up 84% last year, especially the end of last year when Trump's government invested in it which helped clean up is balance sheet. Terrific new CEO. It will take a long time turn around the company but is headed in the right direction. 

Bought a small position. Was up 94% last year, after left for dead for many years. Has serious investors like Nvidia behind it, which impresses him. Great managers. Some questions about it and is keeping a short leash, but it could run up. 

It's too late to enter this. The money has been made during that gigantic move. Their problems aren't over yet, given their balance sheet.

Lagging in key components of AI, and it will be difficult for them to catch up on fundamentals. On technicals, has had a strong breakout and showing positive momentum. Technology tends to do well this time of year.

Technically well set up, fundamentally he's not so keen.

No need to go there. Lots of positive news around the name, but it's really just geographic positioning. Floundering, and government buy-in came at the right time -- pure luck. They care in the US, because they want it to be a US manufacturer of chips. NVDA took its crown.

Instead, look at TSM or ASML or NVDA. 

This investor sounds just like him. Sold out of his fund, but still in separately managed accounts. 

Everyone's interested in it. The foundries require so much capex, and that's why there aren't that many. Fantastic company, but execution has been problematic. New CEO doing fabulous job. Getting pretty close to average analyst price target. Buy if you can see it down at $33, and certainly under $30.

Not really, because the US is concerned about semiconductors and chips. US government now owns an estimated 5%. This injection ensures that the company will survive. Not the best, most powerful, AI chips (that's NVDA). Depends if you think new CEO can turn things around. Now has to execute.

If you think NVDA's growth can keep up, that's a name to look at as well.

Is up 57% in Q3, and one of the top S&P stocks in Q3. The CEO fixed the balance sheet, sold a major stake to the US government and is turning things around.

It is not as dominant as before. The US government has bought 10% of Intel but this is not necessarily a recipe for success.

He believes in the CEO, but the stocks has just had a big move up.
