Intel Explodes on Terafab & Apple Deal! Did You Sell Too Early?

Intel surged 12.92% to $110. Reports of Apple entering foundry negotiations with Intel Foundry, and Intel joining Elon Musk's Terafab chip manufacturing consortium. An Apple foundry contract, if confirmed, would provide Intel Foundry with its most significant external customer endorsement, marking what analysts call a critical milestone in the new management team's strategic transformation. With three catalysts igniting on the same day, how is Intel's turnaround story different this time — and did you sell too early?

$Intel(INTC)$  Intel at US$110 feels like a narrative shift, not merely a short squeeze. Three things make this turnaround different: 1. Foundry credibility, especially if Apple is genuinely evaluating Intel as a manufacturing partner. That is a major trust signal. 2. Strategic ecosystem relevance, with involvement in Elon Musk’s Terafab consortium. 3. CPU execution improving, giving Intel a healthier core business while foundry scales. But caution: Foundry remains capital intensive, margins are still rebuilding, and execution risk is high. My take: • Below US$80 was deep value • US$110 is re-rating territory • US$140 to US$160 possible if foundry wins are confirmed Did investors sell too early? Only if Intel truly becomes a trusted foundry,

Advanced Micro Devices in the inference AI era is no longer just a GPU story. It is positioned across CPU + GPU + adaptive compute, which gives it broader exposure. My fair value view: • Base: US$450 to US$520 • Bull: US$575+ if MI-series inference demand scales hard • Bear: US$320 to US$360 on valuation reset CPU or memory? Near term: Memory has bigger upside, driven by HBM shortages and pricing power. Medium term: CPU may quietly compound better, because inference needs orchestration, data movement and efficient serving, not just accelerators. My view: Memory = faster upside CPU = steadier upside AMD = sweet spot, as it benefits from both. Bottom line: More AI capex likely lifts both, but memory runs hotter while CPU runs longer.

I think anything to do with  trump behind it will be far from being a flop, Tesla and Intel 2 shares that will make a long term investment that's fit for millionaires

I lean slightly toward memory in the near term because pricing power is stronger. When $SanDisk Corp.(SNDK)$ is guiding ~80% gross margins and $Micron Technology(MU)$ calls memory a “strategic asset,” it signals real scarcity. Supply takes years to add, and with customers already booking out capacity, the upside feels more immediate. That said, the CPU story is very real. $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ is benefiting from the shift to inference and agentic AI, where CPUs regain importance. Even Intel seeing demand recovery confirms this isn’t a one-player trade. So to me, memory is a tight supply trade, while CPUs are a demand growth trade. Short term I favor mem

CPU more upside. AMD got more legs to run... but to be safe buy both. allocate higher to the side you feel more confident. no one knows the future so don't all in

$Intel(INTC)$ CEO Lip-Bu Tan on his call: AI is moving from foundation models to agents and inference — data center CPU demand is surging. INTC +17.6% in a single day, up +69% from its $67 low.

AI has moved from training to inference + agentic AI. That shift benefits more than just GPUs. $AMD$ Q1 Data Center: $5.8B (+48% YoY). Q2 guidance: $11.2B revenue (+46% YoY). Lisa Su was explicit: inference and agentic AI demand for high-performance CPUs and accelerators is "accelerating." EPYC keeps taking share. MI455X ramp starts in 2H.

$Intel(INTC)$   Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) won a Street-high price target on Sunday after Evercore raised its view on the chipmaker, citing improving execution, a recovery in CPU demand and Intel's role as the only leading-edge U.S. manufacturer. Evercore Analyst Mark Lipacis upgraded Intel to Outperform from In Line and lifted his price target to $111 from $45. He said the company's latest quarter and forward guidance suggest the market may be undervaluing Intel's earnings power several years out. Intel Is the new Technology darling :  Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:INTC)—once at the forefront of the chip industry before falling behind in key technological shifts—grew its net revenues by 7 percent in the first three months
$Intel(INTC)$  Intel’s stock has recently undergone a historic breakout, hitting all-time highs in April 2026. This surge was primarily triggered by a landmark Q1 2026 earnings report on April 24, which showed a massive beat on both revenue ($13.58B vs. $12.4B expected) and earnings per share ($0.15 vs. $0.01 expected). ## Is the Price Sustainable? The market is currently split between "renaissance" believers and "foundry" skeptics. Whether the $90+ price point holds depends on three critical factors:  * **The CPU Renaissance:** For years, the narrative was that GPUs (Nvidia) would kill the CPU. Instead, 2026 has seen a "CPU resurgence" because **Agentic AI** and LLM inference require heavy CPU orchestration. Intel’s server CPU demand is

An (INTEL)ligent Buy After Q1 Earnings ? Yes !

$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ had a blood bath performance on Thu, 23 Apr 2026, a day after its earnings were released. $Intel(INTC)$ on the other hand delivered a watershed Q1 2026 earnings report, after US market closed. Post announcement saw the former #1 chip maker sparked a +20% surge in its share price, surpassing an all-time high set in 2000. I think this result should signal a definitive end to its period of strategic "wilderness." The results, portray a company that has successfully pivoted to capitalize on the "Agentic AI" era while simultaneously reclaim its manufacturing prowess. Q1 Numbers Behind Rebound Below are the actuals, compared with estimates from analysts polled by LSEG: Revenue: came in at $
An (INTEL)ligent Buy After Q1 Earnings ? Yes !
CPU upside is real but more cyclical than structural versus memory; AI demand is still fundamentally bandwidth- and capacity-driven, keeping HBM and advanced DRAM in a tighter supply-demand regime than CPUs, where competition and pricing pressure persist. For Intel, a new ATH is possible but contingent on sustained foundry traction, execution on advanced nodes, and credible AI accelerator share—none are fully de-risked yet. A $100 target implies multiple expansion plus earnings inflection that likely needs several quarters of flawless delivery. CPUs won’t replace memory as the “hot” leg; they may participate, but memory remains the higher-beta AI lever near term.

💰Intel’s 20% Earnings Rocket: CPU Scarcity Ignites a Major Comeback or Just a Flash in the Pan? 🚀🔥

Intel just dropped a monster earnings report that sent the stock surging ~20% in after-hours trading — the kind of move that turns heads and forces the market to reprice the entire semiconductor narrative. 😱 This wasn’t a garden-variety beat. Revenue, EPS, and especially earnings quality crushed consensus, delivering the strongest profitability metrics Intel has posted in five years. The real story? CPU scarcity is back in a big way, and Intel’s product competitiveness is visibly recovering after years of playing catch-up. Here’s the breakdown of what’s driving the surge and why this could mark a structural shift for the CPU segment in the AI era. 📈 Why Intel’s Earnings Hit So Hard Earnings Quality & Profitability Surge: Strongest metrics in 5 years — not just top-line fluff, but rea

$Intel(INTC)$  Intel Surges 20% on AI "Agentic" Boom — Is $100 the Next Stop or the Top? ​Intel just dropped a bombshell Q1 2026 earnings report, crushing Wall Street expectations and sending the stock rocketing past the $82 level. For the first time in half a decade, Intel is flashing serious profitability metrics and signaling that product competitiveness is actually recovering. ​The narrative is shifting violently: this isn’t just a "dead money" value play anymore. With CPU scarcity taking center stage and "agentic AI" driving an unexpected server upgrade cycle, the market is suddenly whispering about a realistic $100 price target. But is this a structural turnaround, or just a temporary supply-shock sugar high? Let’s break down the trade.
