Technical Analysis 
Aug 21, 2026, 12:00 amThis summary was created by AI, based on 29 opinions in the last 12 months.
Intel has undergone a significant turnaround under its new CEO, with shares rallying and the company reporting impressive earnings. However, experts remain split on the stock's future, noting its high valuation compared to competitors and concerns about its ability to keep up with the rapidly evolving AI market. While some see potential in Intel's U.S.-based manufacturing and government support, others highlight its reliance on favorable market conditions and competition from stronger players like Nvidia. The company has shown positive revenue changes recently, but experts caution about potential pullbacks and execution challenges moving forward.
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.
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.

Premium contentIntel reported a revenue of 13.7B, which is a 6.2% change from the previous quarter. An increase in revenue typically indicates growing demand for the company's products or services. This positive change in revenue is a good sign, suggesting that the company's sales are moving in the right direction. Gross Profit stood at 5.32B, marking a 50.2% change since the last quarter. Gross profit showcases the efficiency in production and sales processes. Social media mentions are up 7.3% in the past 24h.
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.
Kim BoltonNot 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.
He approves of Washington taking a stake in Intel. This isn't about socialism or Trump picking winners of losers, it's about the dire state of Intel and a long line of bad CEOs. Problem is, Intel is too big to go under. And the new CEO is a turnaround artist, who previously saved Cadence.

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.
