Intel (INTC) Shares Trade Around $30Intel (INTC) Shares Trade Around $30
In August, we noted that:
→ Intel (INTC) shares gained strong bullish momentum following reports that the US government was in talks to acquire a stake in the company;
→ the INTC chart was signalling that the depressed market, in place since 2021, was undergoing a fundamental shift in sentiment, with a potential rally foundation being formed.
Last month also brought the official announcement that Japanese conglomerate SoftBank Group would invest $2 billion in Intel. September, in turn, delivered further reasons for price gains:
→ On 18 September 2025, Nvidia officially announced a $5 billion investment in Intel and the launch of a multi-year strategic partnership. This came as a shock to the market: instead of competing, the two giants decided to join forces in developing new products. INTC shares gapped strongly higher, surpassing the psychological $30 mark for the first time this year.
→ More recently, Bloomberg reported that Apple is also considering investing in Intel. Although this remains at the level of speculation (with no official confirmation from either side), INTC shares rose by more than 6% yesterday.
Technical Analysis of INTC Shares
In earlier chart analysis, we highlighted the importance of the $20 level, which appeared to act as support from large players. This may have reflected confidence that the government would not allow a strategically important US company to be left behind in difficult times, particularly in the context of technological competition with China.
For many months, INTC shares had been in decline (shown by the red line). However, the price action in August–September has broken this pattern, confirming earlier assumptions. Higher lows and higher highs in 2025 have established an ascending channel (shown in blue), with key features as follows:
→ in early September, the price consolidated near the median, signalling a balance between supply and demand around $25;
→ September’s bullish news shifted the balance in favour of buyers, with INTC stock jumping towards the upper boundary of the channel.
From a bearish standpoint, potential obstacles to further growth include:
→ the psychological $30 level (which acted as support in May);
→ the upper boundary of the blue channel.
Although the market looks overbought, it is possible that:
→ buyers may refrain from taking profits in anticipation of longer-term gains;
→ and if positive rumours of further investment in Intel continue to be confirmed, this could drive an extension of the upward trend — potentially along a steeper trajectory (shown in orange).

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)

$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.
Intel - The bottom is in!🔮Intel ( NASDAQ:INTC ) forms a clear bottom:
🔎Analysis summary:
After a consolidation of about three decades, Intel is now creating a strong bottom formation. With the retest of a major horizontal support area, Intel is respecting clear market structure. Quite likely therefore that Intel will soon start its next major higher timeframe bullrun.

Intel in Trouble or Ready for Redemption?There is growing potential for QUALCOMM Incorporated to acquire Intel.
I now believe that this development has advanced enough to warrant a fresh look at the stock
Qualcomm recently approached Intel about a takeover. According to WSJ , Qualcomm has expressed interest in acquiring Intel, which, if realized, would mark one of the most significant deals in recent history
Initially, this seemed like a long shot, with limited details emerging from the report. However, QCOM has continued to pursue the idea. Also QCOM has been in contact with Chinese antitrust regulators over the past month about this potential deal and is waiting until after the US presidential election to decide on making a formal offer. Since the election is just less than a month away, I believe this acquisition is becoming more of a possibility that investors should factor into their assessment of INTC. If a deal goes through, it’s likely that the acquisition will come at a premium to the current stock price, creating an opportunity for significant short term gains for investors
There is always a chance that no deal will occur. In that case, potential investors should evaluate whether the stock is worth holding as a long-term investment. My outlook here is not optimistic, and I’ll delve into INTC's competitive position, as indicated by its latest inventory data, in the next section
Given these two potential scenarios, I am upgrading my rating from "Sell" to "Hold." In summary, the possibility of QCOM acquiring INTC introduces a major upside catalyst that I hadn’t accounted for in my previous analysis. This potential acquisition helps offset some of the concerns about INTC as a standalone company.
Unlike many financial metrics that can be interpreted in different ways, inventory levels are more straightforward. He also explained that inventory trends can provide early indicators of business cycles. For cyclical industries, rising inventories can signal overproduction as demand wanes, while shrinking inventories can indicate strong demand
As shown in INTC’s most recent balance sheet, its inventory levels have generally been on the rise. For instance, in December 2014, inventory was valued at $ 4.273 billion, while the most recent figures show an increase to $ 11.244 billion. In some cases, rising inventory can signal business growth with increasing demand and production capacity, which was true for Intel in the early part of the last decade.
When inventory growth exceeds the pace of business growth, it becomes a red flag. In this scenario, rising inventory suggests weakened competitiveness and declining market position—an issue that Intel currently faces, in my opinion. The following chart helps illustrate this point, showing a comparison of days of inventory outstanding (DIO) for Intel and NVIDIA over the last five years, from 2020 to 2024. DIO is a measure of how many days it takes a company to sell its inventory
Given Intel's inventory buildup and declining competitive edge, I find its current valuation multiples hard to justify. Specifically, the chart highlights a comparison of price-to-earnings (P/E) ratios between Intel, NVIDIA, and AMD. Focusing on non-GAAP earnings estimates for fiscal years FY1 through FY3, Intel is currently trading with the highest P/E ratio for FY1 at 87.7 almost twice the multiple of NVIDIA and AMD, which are at 46.29 and 46.25, respectively
That said, the outlook changes somewhat when considering the years further ahead. For instance, in FY2, NVIDIA’s expected P/E ratio rises to the highest at 32.77, compared to Intel's 20.02 and AMD's 29.02. However, I want to emphasize the substantial uncertainty in Intel's earnings forecasts. As shown in the next chart, the consensus estimates for Intel's earnings per share (EPS) in FY 2024 range from a low of $0.15 to a high of $0.31 (a more than twofold variation) and from a low of $0.65 to a high of $2.1 (an almost fourfold variation). Given such uncertainty, I believe investors should be cautious about relying too heavily on forward P/E ratios too far into the future.
Both Intel and NVIDIA have experienced significant fluctuations in DIO over the years. Notably, both companies saw a spike in 2023 due to the COVID pandemic, which disrupted global supply chains. As the disruption faded, both firms saw a recovery (ie, a reduction in DIO). the difference in recovery is striking. Intel's DIO peaked at over 150 days in 2023 and has since decreased to 125 days a modest reduction but still above its historical average of 114 days. In contrast, NVIDIA's DIO surged to over 200 days but has rapidly dropped to 76 days, which is not only below its four-year average of 97.9 days but also near its lowest level in four years.
I expect Intel to face increasing competitive pressure as rivals like NVIDIA and AMD roll out their next-generation chips, particularly NVIDIA’s Blackwell chips. I recommend potential investors keep a close eye on inventory data, as it can signal changes in competitive dynamics for the reasons discussed here.
In addition to inventory issues and valuation risks, Intel faces a few other specific challenges. A significant portion of Intel’s current product lineup is concentrated in certain segments, such as PCs, which I believe are nearing market saturation plus a large share of Intel’s revenue comes from China. Given the ongoing trade tensions between the US and China, this heavy reliance on China poses a considerable geopolitical risk. These factors may limit Intel’s ability to adapt to technological advancements and shifting geopolitical conditions
The potential for a QUALCOMM acquisition has emerged as a new major upside catalyst. While my outlook on Intel’s business remains pessimistic based on the latest inventory data, the acquisition possibility partially offsets these negatives, leading me to upgrade my rating from Sell to Hold or if you are risk taker like Me, load the dip
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 to 40. A bet on America's chip when the chips are downIntel is an interesting stock. I made a bet on it this week. It’s very cheap trading at book value. Lots of bad news has destroyed this stock while other chip stocks are at all time highs. With a new CEO running the show and investing in next gen chip production, I think he turns it around.
I think it's at 40 within a year, and makes new all time highs after that.
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.

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.

Agreement
All models view INTC as bearish into weekly expiry. Consensus on buying puts, with most favoring the $20.00 strike. Targeting a 50% gain on premium and risking ~25–50% premium loss. Entry timing at market open and holding into expiry or early in the week. Elevated VIX and heavy put open interest reinforce bearish bias.
Disagreement
Gemini prefers the $19.50 put for greater leverage vs. $20.00 put. Stop‐loss levels vary: from $20.10 up to $20.50 underlying or premium-based stops. Exit timing differs: some through expiry, others midweek to reduce theta decay. Profit‐target aggressiveness: 50% vs. 100% gains. Conclusion
Overall Market Direction Consensus: Bearish
Recommended Trade
Strategy: Buy single-leg naked put Option: INTC 2025-05-30 expiry, $20.00 strike put Premium: $0.41 per contract Entry Timing: At market open Profit Target: $0.62 (≈50% premium gain) Stop Loss: $0.20 (≈50% premium loss) Size: 1 contract Confidence Level: 70%
Key Risks and Considerations
Short-term oversold RSI may trigger a bounce around $20.00 support. Max pain at $21.00 could exert slight upward pressure if market stabilizes. Volatility drop (VIX normalization) could compress option premiums (vol crush). Weekly options have rapid theta decay; managing timing is critical. Liquidity and bid-ask spreads may widen at open—use limit orders.

Intel Corporation | INTCIntel reported second quarter earnings on Thursday, showing a return to profitability after two straight quarters of losses and issuing a stronger-than-expected forecast. the stock rose 7% in extended trading.
Here’s how Intel did versus Refinitiv consensus expectations for the quarter ended July 1:
Earnings per share: 13 cents, adjusted, versus a loss of 3 cents expected by Refinitiv.
Revenue: $12.9 billion, versus $12.13 billion expected by Refinitiv.
For the third quarter, Intel expects earnings of 20 cents per share, adjusted, on revenue of $13.4 billion at the midpoint, versus analyst expectations of 16 cents per share on $13.23 billion in sales.
Intel posted net income of $1.5 billion, or 35 cents per share, versus a net loss of $454 million, or a loss of 11 cents per share, in the same quarter last year.
Revenue fell 15% to $12.9 billion from $15.3 billion a year ago, marking the sixth consecutive quarter of declining sales.
Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger said on a call with analysts the company still sees “persistent weakness” in all segments of its business through year-end, and that server chip sales won’t recover until the fourth quarter. He also said that cloud companies were focusing more on securing graphics processors for artificial intelligence instead of Intel’s central processors.
David Zinsner, Intel’s finance chief, said in a statement that part of the reason the report was stronger than expected was because of the progress the company has made toward slashing $3 billion in costs this year. Earlier this year, Intel slashed its dividend and announced plans to save $10 billion per year by 2025, including through layoffs.
“We have now exited nine lines of business since Gelsinger rejoined the company, with a combined annual savings of more than $1.7 billion,” said Zinsner.
Revenue in Intel’s Client Computing group, which includes the company’s laptop and desktop processor shipments, fell 12% to $6.8 billion. The overall PC market has been slumping for over a year. Intel’s server chip division, which is reported as Data Center and AI, saw sales decline 15% to $4 billion plus Intel’s Network and Edge division, which sells networking products for telecommunications, recorded a 38% decline in revenue to $1.4 billion.moreover Mobileye, a publicly traded Intel subsidiary focusing on self-driving cars, saw sales slip 1% on an annual basis to $454 million and Intel Foundry Services, the business that makes chips for other companies, reported $232 million in revenue.
Intel’s gross margin was nearly 40% on an adjusted basis, topping the company’s previous forecast of 37.5%. Investors want to see gross margins expand even as the company invests heavily in manufacturing capability.
In the first quarter, the company posted its largest loss ever as the PC and server markets slumped and demand declined for its central processors. Intel’s results on Thursday beat the forecast that management gave for the second quarter at the time.
Intel management has said the turnaround will take time and that the company is aiming to match TSMC’s chip-manufacturing prowess by 2026, which would enable it to bid to make the most advanced mobile processors for other companies, a strategy the company calls “five nodes in four years.” Intel said on Thursday that it remained on track to hit those goals.
Nvidia has had an amazing run, but any emerging technology, such as AI, which is bottlenecked by a single company will have issues in growth. Consulting firm McKinsey has pegged the AI market to be worth $1 trillion by 2030, but also that it was in an experimental and in early phases of commercial deployment.
While Nvidia will likely retain its leadership in GPU hardware as applied to AI for the foreseeable future, it is likely that other hardware solutions for AI systems will also be successful as AI matures. While technologist may quibble on specifics, all major AI hardware today are based on GPU architectures, and as such I will use the terms and concepts of AI hardware and GPU architecture somewhat interchangeably.
One likely candidate for AI related growth may be AMD (AMD), which has had GPU products since acquiring ATI in 2006.However, unlike Nvidia, which had a clear vision for of general-purpose GPU products (GPGPU), historically, AMD had largely kept its focus on the traditional gaming applications. AMD has developed an AI architecture called XDNA, and an AI accelerator called Alveo and announced its MI300, an integrated chip with GPU acceleration for high-performance computing and machine learning. How AMD can and may evolve in the AI may be subject of a different article.
Another contender for success in the AI applications using GPU is Intel, who is the focus of this article. Intel has maintained a consistent, if low key focus on GPU hardware focused on AI applications over the last decade. Intel’s integrated HD Graphics is built into most modern processor ICs; however, these are insufficient compared to dedicated GPUs for high-end inferencing or machine learning tasks.
It has 2 primary GPU architectures in production release:
In 2019 Intel Corporation acquired Habana Labs, an Israel-based developer of programmable deep learning accelerators for the data center for approximately $2 billion. Habana Labs’ Gaudi AI product line from its inception focused on AI deep learning processor technologies, rather than as GPU that has been extended to AI applications. As a result, Gaudi microarchitecture was designed from the start for the acceleration of training and inferencing. In 2022 Intel announced Gaudi2 and Greco processors for AI deep learning applications, implemented in 7-nanometer (TSMC) technology and manufactured on Habana’s high-efficiency architecture. Habana Labs benchmarked Gaudi2’s training throughput performance for the ResNet-50 computer vision model and the BERT natural language processing model delivering twice the training throughput over the Nvidia high end A100-80GB GPU. So, Gaudi appears to give Intel a competitive chip for AI applications.
Concurrent with the Habana Labs’ Gaudi development, Intel has internally developed the Xe GPU family, as dedicated graphics card to address high-end inferencing or machine learning tasks as well as more traditional high-end gaming. Iris® Xe GPU family consists of a series of microarchitectures, ranging from integrated/low power (Xe-LP) to enthusiast/high performance gaming (Xe-HPG), data center/AI (Xe-HP) and high-performance computing (Xe-HPC). The architecture has been commercialized in Intel® Data Center GPU Flex Series (formerly codenamed Arctic Sound) and Intel® Arc GPU cards. There is some question on Xe GPU future and evolution. Intel has shown less commitment to the traditional GPU space compared to Gaudi. Nonetheless, it does demonstrate Intel ability to design and field complex GPU products as its business requires.
Intel has many other AI projects underway. The Sapphire Rapids chips implements AI specific acceleration blocks including technology called AMX (Advanced Matrix Extensions), which provides acceleration inside the CPU for efficient matrix multiplications used in on-chip inferencing and machine learning processing by speeding up data movement and compression. Intel has supporting technologies such as Optane, which while cancelled as a production line, is available for their needs of a high-performance non-volatile memory, one of the intrinsic components in any AI product.
Based on the above, Intel appears to have competitive hardware solutions, however if we look at Nvidia success in AI, it is a result of a much a software and systems focus as it is the GPGPU hardware itself. Can Intel compete on that front. Ignoring for the moment that Intel has a huge software engineer (approx. 15,000) resource, it also has- access to one of the leading success stories in perhaps the most competitive AI application – self driving cars.
Mobileye, who was acquired by Intel in 2017, has been an early adopter and leader, with over 20 years of experience in automotive automated driving and vision systems. As such, Mobileye has a deep resource of AI domain information that should be relevant to many applications. Mobileye has announced that it is working closely with Habana, as related divisions within Intel. While Intel is in the process of re-spinning out Mobileye as public company, Mobileye Global Inc. (MBLY), at present Intel still owns over 95% of shares, keeping it effectively an Intel division.
In looking at Intel, we have a company with the history, resources, and technology to compete with Nvidia and infrastructure. They have made significant investment and commitment to the emerging AI market, in times when they have exited other profitable businesses. It should also be understood that AI related product are a small percentage of overall Intel revenues (INTC revenue are more than twice NVDA, even if NVDA has 6x its market cap), and continues to keep its primary business focus on its processor and foundry business.
Hopefully for shareholders, Intel continues to push their AI technology and business efforts. Their current position is that this is strategic, but Intel is in a very fluid time and priorities may change based on business, finances, and of course the general interest and enthusiasm for AI. It is always worth noting that AI as a technical concept is mature, and appears to be cyclical, with interest in the technical community rising and falling in hype and interest once every decade or so. I remember working on AI applications, at the time labeled as expert systems in the 1980s. If we are currently at a high hype point, this may be temporary, based on near term success and disappointment in what AI does achieve. Of course, as always, “this time is different” and the building blocks of effective AI systems currently exist, where for previous iterations, it was more speculative.
