US30 hits new all-time high amid robust AI fever
US equities rallied to fresh record highs, fueled by the Fed’s rate cut, resilient US economic data, and optimism over progress in US-China trade negotiations. Ongoing enthusiasm for AI also boosted technology stocks.
Nvidia (NVDA) drove the strongest market reaction after announcing a \$5 bln purchase of more than 4% of Intel (INTC). Sentiment was further buoyed by reports that Chinese regulators halted their antitrust probe into Google (GOOGL), ending a long-running investigation into Android’s dominance.
US30 maintained a solid uptrend within the ascending channel, setting a new high. The index holds above both EMAs, indicating the potential continuation of the bullish momentum. If US30 breaches above the 46415 high, the index may gain upward momentum toward the psychological resistance at 47000. Conversely, if US30 breaks below EMA21 and the channel’s lower bound, the index could retreat toward 45000.

DOW THEORY PLAY - INTC CONFIRMS BREAKOUT FROM ACCUMULATION PHASEINTC - CURRENT PRICE : 29.58
Key Technical Highlights:
1. Breakout from Accumulation Phase with Strong Volume
Intel has successfully broken out of a prolonged sideways accumulation zone. The breakout is accompanied by significantly higher-than-average volume , indicating strong buying interest and institutional participation.
2. New 52-Week High Achieved
Price has breached the previous 52-week high, signaling bullish momentum and the potential start of a new price discovery phase. Historically, such breakouts often attract trend-following traders.
3. Golden Cross Formation (look at the red circle)
A Golden Cross has formed for the first time in a long period, where the 50-day EMA has crossed above the 200-day EMA — a classic long-term bullish confirmation. Notably, the last occurrence of this pattern was in July 2023 , making this the first reappearance in over two years, further reinforcing its significance as a potential turning point in market sentiment.
4. Dow Theory Alignment – Public Participation Phase
According to Dow Theory, this marks the second phase of a major uptrend — the Public Participation Phase — where broader market participants begin to enter following early accumulation by smart money. This phase typically sees strong price advances.
ENTRY PRICE : 28.00 - 30.00
FIRST TARGET : 35.00
SECOND TARGET : 42.00
SUPPORT : 25.00 (CUTLOSS below 25.00 on closing basis)
Note : This is related to point no 1. Markets have a tendency to "fall of their own weight." At bottoms, however, markets require a significant increase in buying pressure, reflected in greater volume, to launch a new bull market. A more technical way of looking at this difference is that a market can fall just from inertia. Lack of demand or buying interest on the part of traders is often enough to push a market lower; but a market does not go up on inertia. Prices only rise when demand exceeds supply and buyers are more aggressive than sellers.

Intel | INTC | Long at $20This is going to be purely about technical analysis since Intel NASDAQ:INTC has a 90x P/E and has not proven themselves to be a viable challenger in the semiconductor market (yet...). Bad news could continue to destroy this ticker, but without that news, there could be some recovery in the near term.
The NASDAQ:INTC chart is in an overall downward trend. However, based on a few of my selected simply moving averages (SMAs), there is some predictability around support/resistance areas. Some of my favorite setups are a nice bounce on the lowest (green) selected SMA, occurring in October 2022 for a "rip then dip" to the second lowest (blue) - which it hit now. Often, but not always (I can't stress this enough), this green to blue SMA bounce represents a very strong support area during a downward trend. The other move is a further dip to retest the green SMA, but I suspect that would come with tremendously bad news for Intel... let's hope not, though.
Currently, NASDAQ:INTC is in a personal buy zone at $20.00 based on technical analysis only. A stop has been set if it drops below the blue SMA (which is may further test).
Target #1 = $28.00
Target #2 = $32.00
Target #3 = $60.00+ (very long-term, but high-risk unless fundamentals change)
Intel (INTC) silent accumulation pattern and projection of priceThe last time INTC broke out of its sideways range, it re-tested support three times.
After that, price surged upward, pulled back to the Centerline (an 80% probability move), and then began accumulating again within a sideways coil — or “Battery,” as I like to call it (see the TSLA example).
This setup looks similar now.
In fact, we even have a stronger filter: Price must first break out of the downsloping red Fork. Once that happens, we can expect a re-test of the upper median line (U-MLH). That’s the point where I decide whether or not to take a position.
My target is the Centerline of the grey “What If Fork.”
I want to emphasize that the inventor of the Forks highlighted this idea in his original course: always project and think, “What if…?” That’s exactly what I do — and maybe it will help you as well.
Let’s see if Intel’s “Battery” gives us a solid trade. §8-)
$INTC the next leg to $34-44I took a trade last month that ended up going 500%, now I think it's time for the next leg of the move to play out.
The chart shows a recent breakout of a bull flag and price now testing a key resistance level.
I think once price breaks resistance here and can make it above that $26 resistance level, we'll see a large move higher start.
I think the move has the potential to reach $34-37, but can potentially make it all the way up to $44-45 level.
Let's see how it plays out.
INTC Ready For Breakout?Intel INTC appears to be putting in a major bottom on the weekly time frame. Stock has been beaten down for some time!
On the daily time frame, price appears to be ready to breakout of the range above the High Volume Node after multiple tests of the upper boundary resistance.
Theres been a gap to fill for some time up to $28. The pivot targets are subdued due to the amount of time INTC has spent ranging, so not super useful for targets in this case.
Price is above the daily 200EMA which has flicked positive.
Here is an example from my trade signals Substack. Stop below the 200EMA, pivot, High Volume Node and descending support line - you don't want to see price losing these as it adds confidence to the downside. This asset is volatile so the stop is wide for now - I will be looking out to adjust this to a tighter stop and thus a larger position size once I see how price action unfolds. I believe we have a good opportunity ahead to make several trades on this asset as we play it level by level.

$INTC looks good for at trade to the upside? Targeting $34+?If we look at the chart, we can see INTC failed the breakdown of an H&S, retested the trendline breakout and seems to be heading higher.
Failed breakdowns are usually the most bullish patterns.
I could see the possibility of a large move here to go back and retest the $34 region, or potentially even go higher ($40+) if we can surpass that resistance.
Being price fell so quickly from March until now, I can see a sharp move higher (maybe on some news?).
Let's see what happens over the coming weeks.
Intel (INTC) Stock Price Rises 7% Amid White House RumoursIntel (INTC) Stock Price Rises 7% Amid White House Rumours
Intel (INTC) stock price surged more than 7% yesterday, making it the top performer in the S&P 500 index. The rally came on the back of a report in Barron’s stating that the US government is in talks to acquire a stake in Intel:
→ Intel declined to comment on Barron's report.
→ White House spokesperson Kush Desai stated: “Discussion about hypothetical deals should be regarded as speculation unless officially announced by the Administration.”
Meanwhile, Bloomberg reported that the Trump administration is negotiating with Intel over a potential US government stake in the company – a move aimed at boosting domestic manufacturing and supporting Intel’s plans to build a new facility in Ohio.
The prospect of state backing for the American chipmaker triggered a sharp bullish impulse yesterday, which could extend into today. In pre-market trading, INTC shares are hovering around $25 – their highest level since March.
Technical Analysis of INTC Shares
Previously, when analysing the INTC chart, we highlighted the significance of the $20 level, which appeared to act as strong support from major market participants. This may have reflected expectations that the government would not abandon a strategically important US company during challenging times – particularly in the context of technological rivalry with China.
For months, INTC shares had been in a downtrend (as shown by the 100- and 200-period moving averages). However, yesterday’s sharp rally now appears capable of reversing that trend:
→ Lower highs and lows at points A, B, and C had suggested a lower low at point D. Indeed, the price came close to setting it after a disappointing quarterly earnings report on 24 July, which led to a large bearish gap at the market open on 25 July.
→ Today, we may see the price break above point C’s high, signalling a potential end to the bearish market structure.
Candlestick analysis this week highlights strong bullish momentum:
→ On Monday (indicated by an upward arrow), trading opened with a bullish gap. However, sellers became active near the upper boundary of the aforementioned bearish gap (marked with a rightward arrow), causing the candle to close with a long upper wick – a sign of weakness.
→ The next two sessions demonstrated that buying pressure persisted – on Tuesday, the stock opened with a bullish gap and rose steadily throughout the day, with Wednesday’s strong candle further confirming buyer activity.
→ Yesterday, the price confidently broke through resistance at $22.25, moving towards the $23.75 level, which could be breached today.
→ The RSI indicator is now at its highest level since February.
The INTC share chart may be signalling that the prolonged bearish market, which began in 2021, is undergoing a significant shift in sentiment. This could mark the early stages of a rally – one that would be fundamentally justified if Intel does indeed secure government backing.

Intel Share Price Hits 3-Month High Without Clear CatalystIntel (INTC) Share Price Hits 3-Month High Without Clear Catalyst
Intel Corporation (INTC) stocks rose by over 7% yesterday, making them one of the top performers in the S&P 500 index (US SPX 500 mini on FXOpen). As a result, the stock price reached its highest level in three months.
What’s notable is the apparent lack of clear drivers behind the rally. According to Barron’s, the increase in INTC shares could have been triggered by a rating upgrade from Wall Street analysts or a corporate announcement – yet no such developments have occurred. "Nothing new or fundamental," says Mizuho managing director and technology specialist Jordan Klein.
At the same time, from a technical analysis perspective, the INTC price chart is showing significant developments. Examining these price movements may provide clues as to what’s fuelling the recent rise.
Technical analysis of INTC stocks
For many months, the share price had been confined within a downward channel. However, the psychological level of $20 acted as a strong support – repeated attempts by bears to push the price lower ultimately failed.
Bearish patterns in INTC’s chart may have led to a supply squeeze, as holders were given repeated reasons to sell (particularly against the backdrop of Nvidia’s success). Yet the bullish reversals near the $20 mark suggest that institutional interest was accumulating the stock at what was perceived to be a deeply discounted level – a characteristic sign of the Accumulation Phase in Wyckoff methodology.
It is this lack of available supply that could explain the sudden price rise in the absence of obvious news catalysts.
Since early summer, INTC shares have been making higher highs and higher lows, breaking upwards through the descending channel and beginning to form the early stages of a new bullish trend (highlighted in blue). Should fundamental catalysts emerge in the near term, they may serve as the spark to accelerate this nascent rally.

INTC getting ready to start it's upward trajectoryINTC has been ranging and coiling since July of 2024. It finally, is starting to look like bullish movement is about to break upwards.
As you can see, INTC has just broken the downward trend line as well as the triangle pattern. A break and hold above $24.40 would indicate the start of a new uptrend in the chart.
Indications that the stock is gaining bullish momentum on the weekly chart:
The Williams %R is approaching and getting ready to break the 50 line.
The MACD is bullish and approaching the zero line.
The stock has bounced off of the volume shelf on the AVP 4 times and is now breaking out of technical patterns.
Money flow on market cipher B has crossed over green.
EMA's are starting to turn upward to flip bullish.
The marked move on this triangle pattern is approximately $40.
From a fundamental standpoint, Intel is trying to fix the business on two tracks at one time:
1)Near-term – ship competitive AI-centric products now (CPUs, GPUs, Gaudi accelerators) to put revenue and margins back on a growth path.
2) Long-term – reinvent itself as a contract chip-maker (Intel Foundry) so it can win outside customers and leverage its huge fab investments.
Think of it as “sell more chips today, sell more manufacturing tomorrow.”
Let's see Intel can build enough momentum to break this range for the bigger move up. The table is set from a technical standpoint.

Bullish Thesis for INTC Intel Stock in 2025If you haven`t bought INTC before the previous earnings:
Now Intel INTC is positioned for a potential turnaround and upside by the end of 2025, driven by strategic leadership changes, foundry business expansion, AI innovation, and favorable geopolitical dynamics. Here’s why INTC could head higher this year:
1. Leadership Transformation and Strategic Vision
The appointment of Lip-Bu Tan as CEO in March 2025 has injected new optimism into Intel’s prospects. Tan is a respected semiconductor industry veteran, and his arrival was met with a 10% jump in INTC’s share price, reflecting renewed investor confidence in the company’s direction.
2. Foundry Business Expansion and Government Support
Intel’s pivot toward a foundry-centric model is gaining momentum. The company is leveraging its U.S.-based manufacturing footprint to attract domestic and international clients, especially as geopolitical tensions and trade restrictions make U.S. chip production more attractive.
There is speculation about strategic partnerships, such as TSMC potentially acquiring a stake in Intel’s foundry operations, which could accelerate technology transfers and client wins.
The U.S. government is likely to continue supporting domestic semiconductor manufacturing through incentives and tariffs, directly benefiting Intel’s foundry ambitions.
3. AI and Next-Gen Product Launches
Intel is aggressively targeting the AI and data center markets. The upcoming Jaguar Shores and Panther Lake CPUs, built on the advanced 18A process node, are set for release in the second half of 2025. These chips will be available not only for Intel’s own products but also for external clients like Amazon and Microsoft, expanding the addressable market.
Intel’s renewed focus on AI accelerators and competitive cost structures could help it regain share in high-growth segments.
4. Financial Resilience and Market Position
Despite recent setbacks, Intel remains a dominant player in the PC CPU market and continues to generate substantial revenue, outpacing some key competitors in the latest quarter.
Analysts have revised their short-term price targets upward, with some projecting INTC could reach as high as $62—a potential upside of over 170% from current levels.
Forecasts for 2025 suggest an average price target in the $40–$45 range, with bullish scenarios pointing even higher if execution on foundry and AI strategies meets expectations.
5. Technical and Sentiment Factors
While technical analysis currently signals caution, the $18.50–$20 zone has provided strong support, and any positive news on foundry contracts or AI wins could catalyze a breakout from current consolidation patterns.
Market sentiment has shifted more positively following the CEO change and strategic announcements, suggesting the potential for a sustained rebound if Intel delivers on its promises.
In conclusion:
Intel’s combination of visionary leadership, foundry expansion, AI innovation, and favorable geopolitical trends sets the stage for a potential stock price recovery by the end of 2025. With analyst targets and investor sentiment turning more bullish, INTC presents a compelling case for upside as it executes its turnaround strategy

Intel (INTC) Shares Drop Over 6% in a DayIntel (INTC) Shares Drop Over 6% in a Day
As shown on the Intel (INTC) chart, after Tuesday’s candle closed above $21, the price dropped sharply on Wednesday. INTC was the worst-performing stock of the day among the components of the S&P 500 index (US SPX 500 mini on FXOpen).
Why Did INTC Shares Fall?
The decline is linked to growing competitive pressure. According to media reports:
→ On one hand, AMD continues to rapidly expand its share of the server CPU market. A report by Mercury shows that the company already controls 40% of the segment and could match Intel as early as next year.
→ On the other hand, Nvidia is preparing to launch two accelerated processing units (APUs) for the consumer market, which will combine CPU and GPU capabilities in a single product.
Technical Analysis of the INTC Chart
In 2025, the price remains:
→ within a broad downward trend (marked in red);
→ supported by the $18.50–$20 zone.
Meanwhile, price fluctuations in May and June are forming a narrowing triangle (marked in black). Following the recent negative news, it is possible that INTC shares could fall towards the lower boundary of the triangle — or even retest the psychologically important $20 level.

Important Support and Resistance Zones: 23.03-28.93
Hello, traders.
If you "Follow", you can always get the latest information quickly.
Have a nice day today.
-------------------------------------
(INTC 1D chart)
It shows an upward trend above the 18.69-21.33 zone, which is a medium- to long-term buy zone.
However, you need to be relaxed because it needs to rise above 28.93 to turn into an uptrend.
The 28.93 point is the HA-Low indicator point on the 1M chart, and it is expected that a breakout trade will be possible when it breaks above this point.
Since the price is located below the M-Signal indicator on the 1M chart, you should respond quickly and briefly with short-term trading while observing the situation.
Therefore, if you were unable to purchase in the mid- to long-term purchase section,
1st: M-Signal indicator on the 1M chart
2nd: 28.93
You can proceed with a purchase when it shows support near the 1st and 2nd above.
If it falls below 18.69, you should stop trading and observe the situation.

Thank you for reading to the end.
I hope you have a successful transaction.
