Extended read
Intel's massive outperformance over the last 12 months reflects a market betting on the success of its IDM 2.0 strategy. The 18A process is seen as the key to reclaiming transistor leadership from TSMC. However, the disconnect between the stock price (+425%) and revenue growth (+7%) creates a high-stakes environment for upcoming earnings reports. Any delay in the 18A roadmap could lead to a sharp correction.
