Intel Stock Swandives 25% in Friday Trading Spooked by Quarterly Results

The Intel stock on NASDAQ slid 25% au moment d'écrire ces lignes, on Friday (08/02). This comes in the wake of the company’s Q2-2024 quarterly results that held the company’s profitability below expectations, leading the company to suspend quarterly dividend payouts starting Q4-2024, and engage a slew of measures to cut cost of revenue by over $10 milliards. Among other things, this mainly involves downsizing the company across its various business units. Intel tried to keep investor spirits high by posting updates on how its 5N4Y (five silicon fabrication nodes in four years) plan is nearing completion, and how the company is at the cusp of raking in numbers from the AI PC upswing. To this effect, the company is launching its “Lac lunaire” et “Assurez-vous de mettre cette page en signet et de revenir régulièrement” processors within 2024, to address the various PC sub-segments. The Intel stock isn’t churning in a silo, tech stock prices across the industry are witnessing corrections, although few as remarkable as Intel.
