$Intel(INTC)$  

please do your own research. "Today, SoftBank announced a $2 billion investment in Intel, acquiring shares at $23 each and sending the stock up ~6–10%. This vote of confidence underscores potential collaboration benefits—especially with SoftBank’s ties to Arm and its broader AI ecosystem.

Meanwhile, reports surfaced that the U.S. government is considering acquiring a 10% equity stake via Chips Act grants. While this raised concerns of dilution and political complexity, it signals high-level strategic recognition of Intel’s importance in domestic chip production.

Intel’s turnaround under new CEO Lip-Bu Tan (appointed March 2025) includes significant restructuring: layoffs, canceled fab projects, and refocusing on core strengths.

In conclusion, Bullish Case: If you believe in Intel’s turnaround narrative, the SoftBank investment and possible government support serve as strong catalysts. The technical setup suggests upside if momentum holds.

• Caution Warning: Execution risks, competitive pressure, potential dilution, and sector headwinds all cloud the near-term outlook.

• Recommended Move: This may be a strategic trade opportunity—hold or enter gradually, watching for breakout confirmation. If you’re already long and risk-averse, it may be prudent to take partial profits near resistance zones ($27–28) to manage risk."

    Softbank infamously bet large at the top of the dot com bubble and then lost 99% of value.
