Trump Regrets Intel Deal as INTC Dips in AI-Chip Arms Race

President Trump says he should have asked for more from the U.S. government’s investment in Intel, a remark that followed INTC’s stock decline after the deal's announcement, though the move has boosted Intel’s cash flow and credibility. The piece notes Intel’s recent rally and Lip-Bu Tan’s comment that the CPU remains a foundational AI-era technology, and recalls how Omni-Path almost died but was saved by Cornelis Networks, giving Intel a foothold against Nvidia. Analysts’ consensus remains Hold with a target around $87, implying roughly 25% downside from current levels as investors weigh the investment’s strategic value amid the AI-chip race.
