My stock in focus today is
$Intel(INTC)$ , following its sharp rally and ahead of earnings that will test its AI-linked recovery story. While Intel still trails in AI accelerators, growing demand for server CPUs as AI workloads become more complex is driving renewed optimism.
That optimism is visible in the price action. Intel is up about 47% year-to-date, ranking among the top S&P 500 gainers in 2026, with momentum supported by confidence in server CPUs and early progress from Panther Lake and the 18A process. The market is now pricing in execution rather than just hope.
The key question is sustainability. Rising memory costs, PC market pressure, and server share concerns remain, making this earnings report less about a blowout and more about whether Intel can show steady improvement and credible signs of execution.
