Intel (INTC) Stock Looks Above Fair Value After a Very Large Run

Never miss an important update on your stock portfolio and cut through the noise. Over 7 million investors trust Simply Wall St to stay informed where it matters for FREE. Intel stock has delivered a very large 348.0% return over the past year, yet the valuation checks send a mixed message. The intrinsic value estimate based on a Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model suggests the shares are roughly in line with fair value, while simple market multiples still screen Intel as undervalued. A 348.0% one year return puts Intel among the strongest movers in the Nasdaq this year. This can leave less room

Intel's $20B capital raise likely removes overhang, UBS says

Why Intel (INTC) Stock Is Down Today

What Happened? Shares of computer processor maker Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) fell 3.7% in the morning session after the company announced a plan to issue $15 billion in common stock. This move is expected to increase the total number of shares available, which can dilute the ownership stake of existing shareholders. When a company issues new stock, each existing share represents a smaller percentage of the company, often putting downward pressure on the stock price. The market's reaction reflects concerns over this potential dilution of value for current investors, as a larger supply of shares enters

Why Intel’s $20 Billion Stock Offering Is Actually a Great Sign for the Company

Shares of Intel have been under pressure this week since the chip maker announced a $20 billion stock offering. UBS analyst Timothy Arcuri wrote Wednesday that Intel’s $20 billion stock offering will “remove an overhang” for the stock as it will allow the chip maker to fund its foundry buildout. The stock offering will provide “bridge” funding through 2027 and 2028 for Intel, Arcuri wrote. Continue Reading

Intel Did Much Worse Than Super Micro Computer But Both Got Punished

Quick Read Intel (INTC) posted its strongest revenue growth in 15 years and Supermicro (SMCI) nearly doubled revenue, yet both stocks fell hard after earnings. Intel diluted existing shareholders by roughly one-fifth through a $15 billion stock offering, while Supermicro kept common equity dilution under 3% using debt. Intel's Foundry still bleeds $2.1 billion in operating losses and Supermicro carries an unresolved export-control review, making both difficult to underwrite now. It sounds nuts, but SoFi1 is giving new Active Invest users up to $3,000 in stock for a limited time, and all it tak

Intel Stock Slips as $20 Billion Offering Expands Dilution

This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Intel (NASDAQ:INTC), the semiconductor giant fighting to reclaim its manufacturing edge, slipped approximately 0.1% in Tuesday's regular-session trading after turning an already enormous capital raise into an even bigger one. Intel boosted its stock offering from $15 billion to $20 billion, selling 210.5 million shares at $95 each. That should put roughly $19.7 billion of fresh cash on the balance sheet before any additional allotment. The deal is expected to close August 12.

Intel makes another $15 billion vital move as AI demand accelerates

Time and again, I've seen the same movie at Intel, from different angles. From the layoffs, the 18A yield progress, the management restructuring, the CHIPS Act subsidies, and the Q2 beat, which was the company's strongest revenue growth in 15 years. Each piece of the puzzle has been pointing in the same direction: Artificial Intelligence (AI). These are just a few of the moves Intel has made. Recently, we saw Intel raise its 2026 capital expenditure estimates to more than $20 billion, from around $18 billion, to meet rising demand.

Intel's huge rally is helping pay for its AI comeback: Chart of the Day

Intel's (INTC) AI ambitions are getting more expensive. Its 165% rally this year is helping foot the bill. The chipmaker said Monday it plans to raise $15 billion by selling new shares to investors, giving it fresh cash for factories, equipment, day-to-day operations, and other needs. That comes with a cost for existing shareholders. Selling new stock causes dilution, meaning each share represents a slightly smaller piece of the company. Intel's rally has dramatically reduced that cost. At Monday's close of roughly $98, Intel would need to sell about 153 million shares to raise $15 billion. At

Intel Stock Drops 4.5% as $15 Billion Share Sale Hits

This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Intel (NASDAQ:INTC), the chip giant betting billions on a manufacturing comeback, launched a massive $15 billion stock offering Monday, and investors immediately hit the brakes. Shares dropped roughly 4.5% during the regular session. Underwriters can buy another $2.25 billion over the next 30 days, potentially swelling the deal to $17.25 billion. That is serious dilution. But Intel also needs serious money. The company is burning through capital as it races to expand advanced manufacturing, packaging and foundry capacity, so management is striking whil

SK Hynix and SanDisk Climb 8%, Western Digital Gains 4% as Memory Shortage Deepens

Quick Read SK Hynix (SKHY) and SanDisk (SNDK) each surged 8% Wednesday after Temasek announced direct investments and Micron's CBO warned 2027 supply will be even tighter. Micron (MU) jumped 6% and the Roundhill Memory ETF (DRAM) rose 8%, yet both trade below 21x earnings despite revenue surging over 345% year over year.

It has also made untold numbers of people richer via ownership of its stock and the constellation of AI-related companies that surround it. Many of these have been helped by investments from Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA), or loans that will make them grow faster. If AI is the

4 Outperforming Stocks That Could Keep Rewarding Investors

The S&P 500 Index (SPX) is up about 13% on the year, and a surprising number of stocks have already doubled in value. Investors tend to get drawn to these high-flying stocks, which made me curious whether these stocks tend to keep going higher for the rest of the year or if they tend to give back some of their gains. In the article below, I dig into the historical data to determine if we can buy in now, or if it's too late. Stocks that Doubled vs. the Others For this study, I went back 10 years using the list of current S&P 500 stocks and found the stock's year-to-date return around this time

Hiltzik: The Trump administration's investments in corporate stocks raise fears of 'crony capitalism'

It was about one year ago that the Trump administration announced a truly eye-opening transaction: In return for an $8.9-billion investment in the chipmaker already authorized under the Biden-era CHIPS Act, the government would take a roughly 10% stake in Intel shares — making the government Intel's largest shareholder. Was this a good deal? For the U.S. taxpayer, the answer is yes — from the standpoint of paper profits. The 443.3 million Intel shares the government acquired for $8.9 billion are currently worth nearly $44 billion on the open market. The Trump administration's 'strategic stakes' policy is a deliberate attempt to shape corporate behavior and obtain leverage under the guise of bolstering domestic capacity in semiconductors, critical minerals, and other industries. Tad DeHaven, Cato Institute But that comes with a host of drawbacks. One is the possibility that Trump will interfere with management decisions at Intel — as he attempted to do even before this deal closed. More important, the transaction poses questions about Trump's industrial policy, as indecisive and obscure as it is. The administration's portfolio of direct and indirect investments now numbers 30 public companies and is valued at about $27 billion. That's an unprecedented level of government participation in the operations of U.S. corporations, placed in the hands of a single person whose business judgment is, to say the least, dubious. "We have a golden share, which I control," Trump proclaimed in describing his authority over the operations of U.S. Steel, which he acquired after approving the company's acquisition by Nippon Steel in June 2025. The scale of this program makes even conservatives uneasy. The libertarian Cato Institute has been outspoken about how the government's taking ownership stakes has become worrisomely "routine." Cato policy scholar Tad DeHaven doesn't buy the White House assertion that the program is aimed at protecting such strategic industries as semiconductors, minerals and quantum computing. Read more:Hiltzik: Trump's transgender-based attack on the CHIPS Act is his most unhinged yet Rather, he wrote, "The Trump administration's 'strategic stakes' policy is a deliberate attempt to shape corporate behavior and obtain leverage under the guise of bolstering domestic capacity in semiconductors, critical minerals, and other industries." Nor are voters especially jazzed. According to a survey by CNBC published last month, some 49% of U.S. voters consider it inappropriate for the government to own pieces of U.S. companies; only 19% thought it all right. Story Continues Not all of Trump's deals have involved outright grants of equity. His first deal, announced June 12, 2025, was triggered by a plan for Japan's Nippon Steel to acquire U.S. Steel. The merger was blocked by the Biden administration, but Trump revived it with a key condition: He was given what Scott Lincicome of the Cato Institute labeled "decisive control" —i n effect, a veto — over many management decisions. These included any decision to relocate U.S. Steel's headquarters out of Pittsburgh, to close one plant earlier than mid-2027 or any other plants before mid-2035, or to cut prices below a given point. The government also got the right to appoint one independent director and mandated that a majority of the board would be U.S. citizens. Lincicome judged these strictures to be tantamount to the "nationalization" of U.S. Steel. "U.S. Steel will have to obtain Uncle Sam's permission to do a lot of stuff," he wrote. Then there are the deals Trump cut with chipmakers Nvidia and AMD. Rather than take an equity stake in the companies, Trump demanded a 15% share of any revenues the companies collected from the sale of artificial intelligence chips to China as the price for his approving the sales. Some have questioned whether those arrangements are legal or even constitutional; they could be regarded as export taxes or duties, which are specifically prohibited by the Co

CoreWeave’s Forecast Is Key to Stopping Another Earnings Selloff

(Bloomberg) -- CoreWeave Inc. shares have been on a roll lately after a monthslong slump. Now, the neocloud provider's earnings after the close Tuesday can give investors a sense of whether the rally is sustainable. Most Read from Bloomberg China Unleashes $28 Trillion Capital Markets to Challenge US in AI Nvidia Taps Wall Street for $500 Billion Funding Commitment Trump Makes Sweeping New Demands on Iran as Deal Hopes Dim Stocks Churn as Hormuz Standoff Spurs Rally in Oil: Markets Wrap Iran Shakes Up Security Team After Saying Oman Deal 'Very Close' The problem is, quarterly results tend to bring out the worst in the stock, which has fallen after each of the company's last five earnings reports, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. "It almost doesn't matter what they say on their earnings," said Willy Lee, principal at venture firm Neostellar, which has held shares of CoreWeave since before its initial public offering. "The market's still I think locked in on pieces of their earnings where I'm not sure if people fully understand parts of the story, and I think it's just taken time for people to digest." It's been a rocky ride in the stock market for CoreWeave, which rents cloud-computing power for artificial intelligence, since going public in March 2025. The shares have been whip-lashed by the expiration of early investor lockups and shifting sentiment surrounding AI. They more than tripled in their first few months of trading, gave back a good chunk of that gain over the next few months, and have flipped between periods of steep gains and sharp losses ever since. Through it all, the stock is up 120% since the IPO and 23% this year. However it's still down 41% from the all-time high it hit almost exactly a year ago. The latest downturn started in May after the company's first-quarter earnings report featured a disappointing forecast that sparked concerns about slowing growth. The stock plunged 56% from a high in May to a low in July. But it has recovered almost half that loss, with a 21% jump in a single session after CoreWeave and Leidos Holdings Inc. announced they were developing AI cloud services for US defense and intelligence operations, followed by last week's 26% gain, its best performance in over a year. After all that, the company's earnings will offer a clearer view of where CoreWeave stands at this critical juncture. The company has been spending to build more data center capacity, and it has said that the benefits of those investments should start showing up in the second half of this year, making management's forward guidance even more crucial than they've ever been.

"The risk is if they're cautious on that Q3 guidance on the operating profits, then it may not answer those concerns people have. And if all of that has to come in the fourth quarter, then just like with any stock it creates risk if you're sort of putting all of your eggs into the Q4 basket." Wall Street expects the Livingston, New Jersey-based company to report a 111% rise in second-quarter revenue to $2.6 billion, and an adjusted net loss of $649 million compared with $131 million a year ago. Analysts have grown increasingly skeptical about this report, raising their projections for CoreWeave's adjusted loss by 8.4% in the last month and 18% over the last three months. CoreWeave also is expected to post an adjusted operating margin of 2.9% in the second quarter. The figure will be key for investors after falling to about 1% in the first quarter. "I'm hoping that that margin was the low that we'll see for the year, and that when they report this quarter, it'll be up from the March trough and they guide to increases each and every quarter in margin," said Paul Meeks of Freedom Capital Markets. "That'll make me feel that the ding in short term property profitability

How the page works

How to read the score

The score shows direction

It describes the weighted balance of qualifying headlines. A score of 50 can mean balanced news or that there is not enough evidence; the status label explains which.

Confidence is separate

Confidence measures depth, source breadth, direct relevance, freshness and agreement. It does not rise merely because the tone is extreme.

Price is confirmation

Weekly price response, trend and fair-value position test whether the market is accepting or rejecting the news. They never rewrite the news score.

What the page does

It measures news already published. It is not a forecast, recommendation or price target.
