No lah. Intel still got a good name. They only need a good CEO & better refining of their X86 technology, they can do better!!

  actually ARM is better and simpler than X86 technically. Nvidia is trying to ARM to compete but block by UK

I will wait for it to fall. I'll like to get some at right $$$. May be down but not out so easily!

Its revenue fell 1% year over year to $19.7 billion, but still beat estimates by $1.75 billion.\nIts non-GAAP net income declined 6% to $5.7 billion. Its non-GAAP earnings per share, buoyed by buybacks, dipped 1% to $1.39 and cleared expectations by $0.25. Those numbers exclude its NAND business, which will be sold to SK Hynix, and other one-time items.\nIntel expects its revenue and non-GAAP earnings to decline 10% and 15% year over year, respectively, in the second quarter. Analysts had expected its revenue and earnings to fall 9% and 19%, respectively.\nFor the full year, Intel expects its GAAP revenue to dip 1% to $77 billion, and for its non-GAAP revenue to drop 7% to $72.5 billion, which misses the consensus forecast of $72.8 billion. It expects its non-GAAP EPS to decline 13%, compared to gloomier forecasts for a 19% decline.\nIntel's first-quarter growth cleared Wall Street's low bar, but its mixed guidance indicated its troubles would persist throughout the year. Intel's stock might look cheap at 13 times forward earnings with a decent forward yield of 2.4%, but it's still not worth buying for five simple reasons.\n1. PC sales will decelerate after the pandemic ends\nIntel's Client Computing Group (CCG) revenue rose 8% year over year to $10.6 billion during the quarter as it sold more CPUs for PCs. Its total PC unit volumes increased 38% year over year, with a 54% jump in notebook volumes offsetting a 4% decline in desktop volumes.\nHowever, PC sales mainly rose because the pandemic caused more people to buy new systems for remote work, online education, and gaming. That tailwind should fade after the pandemic ends.\n2. It could lose more market share to AMD\nIntel's ongoingchip shortage, which started in 2018 and hasn't been resolved yet, caused many PC makers to buy more chips from its fabless rival AMD (NASDAQ:AMD), which outsources its chip production to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE:TSM) instead of manufacturing its chips internally.\nAs a result, Intel ceded the desktop and notebook CPU markets to AMD over the past three years.\nDATA SOURCE: PASSMARK SOFTWARE.\nThose declines could continue for the foreseeable future as the pandemic-related tailwinds dissipate and AMD moves further ahead in the \"process race\" to create smaller and more powerful chips with TSMC.\n3. Existential threats in the data center market\nCloud capex soared across the world over the past year as data centers upgraded their hardware to cope with more online activities throughout the pandemic.\nFor example, the three largest hyper-cloud companies --Amazon,Microsoft, and Alphabet's Google -- collectively boosted their capex 32% in 2020. That increased spending should be good news for Intel, which holds a near-monopoly in data center CPUs.\nYet Intel's data center group (DCG) revenue declined 20% year over year to $5.6 billion during the first quarter. It blamed that contraction on a \"challenging\" comparison to its 43% growth a year ago, which benefited from upgrades across the cloud, enterprise, government, and communication sectors.\nBut those challenging comparisons could persist throughout 2021 as cloud and data center customers prioritize purchases of other chips, such as NVIDIA's (NASDAQ:NVDA) high-end GPUs for crunching AI tasks, over Intel's flagship Xeon CPUs. NVIDIA's recent launch of its own data center CPU and its planned takeover of Arm could exacerbate that pressure.\n4. Unclear plans for its own foundry\nTo resolve its ongoing production issues, Intel will outsource the production of some of its chips to TSMC. But it also plans to accept third-party chip orders at its new Intel Foundry Services division.\nThis strategy contradicts itself. Intel still needs TSMC to produce some of its new chips because of the limitations of its existing foundries, yet it's building new plants to manufacture chips for other fabless chipmakers.\nIn other words, Intel would still be temporarily dependent on TSMC, which remains ahead in the process race, while trying to compete against TSMC andSamsungfor orders of less advanced chips. The foundry services business will also likely generate lower-margin revenue than its CCG and DCG businesses.\n5. Gross margin pressure and reduced buybacks\nLastly, Intel's adjusted gross margin -- which dropped 6.1 percentage points year over year to 58.4% during the first quarter -- could remain under pressure as its PC sales decelerate, its data center sales decline, and it expands its lower-margin foundry services business.\nIntel also plans to reduce its buybacks to conserve more cash for its expansion efforts. That's a necessary measure, but it will throttle its EPS growth as its gross and operating margins contract.\nThe bottom line\nIntel isn't doomed yet, but it's falling behind better-run chipmakers like AMD, NVIDIA, and TSMC. Intel's new CEO Pat Gelsinger claims 2021 will be a \"pivotal year\" for the company -- but I'd like to see it actually pivot before I can consider it a worthy investment.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":109445930,"gmtCreate":1619713247620,"gmtModify":1704271301451,"author":{"id":"3569382039983887","authorId":"3569382039983887","name":"AcidIce","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/25a5edd325094826cf6e8822874786ab","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"idStr":"3569382039983887","authorIdStr":"3569382039983887"},"htmlText":"No lah.
