Intel is back from the dead
- After more than two decades, the stock has surpassed its 2000 peak and reached a new all-time high. - The driver is strong guidance, with the company projecting $14.3B in the next quarter's revenue, well ahead of the $13B expected. - Demand for its Xeon server processors is fueling the upside, supported by continued growth in AI infrastructure. A big winner from Intel’s revival? - The Trump administration, which acquired a 10% stake in 2025 for $8.9B, has now seen that position rise by over 300%.
