What happened
Reached its target in 13 days.
The thesis — published November 19, 2025
Intel looks like a beaten-down company trying to fix itself. A new partnership with Nvidia and a reported $5B investment lifted the stock and adds hope for AI and data center growth. But rivals AMD and ARM are taking CPU share and the core numbers are still weak. After a big slide, a 3-month bounce seems possible, yet results must improve. That is why a careful, step-by-step buying plan makes sense.
Primary drivers
- Shares fell hard, but optimism is rising among many investors right now
- New Nvidia partnership suggests Intel's AI plans are being taken seriously
- Risk: AMD and ARM keep winning more CPU customers from Intel this year
- Possible short-term bounce as price normalizes after a sharp drop
