$Intel(INTC)$  There has been a lot of discussion lately about two semiconductor CEOs: Dr. Lisa Su at AMD and Lip-Bu Tan at Intel. Dr. Lisa Su holds a PhD in EE from MIT and worked on copper interconnect technology at IBM before taking over AMD in 2014, when the company was near bankruptcy with a $2 stock. She bet heavily on the Zen CPU architecture with Ryzen and EPYC, and that led to one of the more notable corporate turnarounds in tech history. AMD captured meaningful server market share with major OEM rack builders like Dell and Supermicro, surpassed Intel in market cap, and positioned itself as the main rival to Nvidia in AI accelerators with the MI300 series. Lip-Bu Tan, the longtime CEO of Cadence Design

$Apple(AAPL)$ Could the unreleased M5 Ultra with 512GB RAM clustered over RDMA using EXO actually pose a serious threat to Nvidia? It seems like it would outsell the duo.

$Intel(INTC)$ It has been showing relative strength for the past couple of weeks. Still looks like there is room to run. Trading names in the upper right of the screen tends to make things easier.

A close friend asked me back in 2020 what I thought were the strongest businesses in public markets at the time. They had been in $Amazon.com(AMZN)$  and were always looking for the next thing. I remember saying that $Alphabet(GOOG)$  still seemed like one of the most powerful forces out there. Looking back now in 2026, I like to think I helped them out. People tend to lump $Apple(AAPL)$ , $Alphabet(GOOG)$ , $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ , and $Microsoft(MSFT)$  into the same group, but these are very different animal

$Intel(INTC)$ If and when market makers and mutual funds actually execute their buys, this could really take off. I don't think Intel is going anywhere, and it should stay relevant for quite some time. I'm comfortable holding regardless of the short-term fluctuations. That said, I personally would not attempt to short this. It feels like playing hot potato with a lit stick of dynamite.

$Intel(INTC)$ Loaded up at $119. Thanks to the bears and shorts for the contribution. It is in a hurry-up and wait phase now, so just taking it easy. Cheers all.

$Intel(INTC)$ Still holding my 6,500 shares. Targeting $135 before the next earnings report.

$Cipher Mining Inc.(CIFR)$ So chip stocks across the board are up over 10%, crypto is up over 10%, and this still can't break 19? Let's go already.

Comparing two of the top female CEOs in tech: Dr. Lisa Su at $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$  and Jayshree Ullal at ANET. Jayshree Ullal started at Crescendo Communications, which became Cisco's first-ever corporate acquisition. She spent over 15 years at $Cisco(CSCO)$ , rising to Senior VP and building their Data Center & Switching division into a $10B+ revenue business. In 2008, she became CEO of Arista Networks when it had roughly 50 employees and zero revenue. She has since built Arista into a $250B+ AI/cloud networking company, taking significant market share from her former employer $Cisco(CSCO)$ , and became one of the most successful self-

Pretty strong buying on Intel overnight, up 4%. $Intel(INTC)$  $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$  $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ 

$Intel(INTC)$  This one could really surprise people in the coming weeks. I'm holding $115 calls for Oct 2nd.

$Apple(AAPL)$ There's no way it reaches 330, seriously. The naysayers are up against a company with over 2.5 billion active devices.

$Intel(INTC)$ Efficiency and volume in Intel's fabs need to pick up as they bring AI and robots into the fabs. Is it time for another round of large layoffs?

$Intel(INTC)$ A couple years ago, I was surprised when Lip-Bu said Intel might drop 14A if there wasn't external customer demand. I was less surprised when he said CapEx spending and buildout would only happen if there was sufficient demand, and projects like the Ohio fab were put on the back burner. Now that Intel is running full throttle to get more manufacturing capacity and accelerating 14A production, it's pretty obvious that demand is through the roof. Shorts may make some money in the short run, but they are playing with fire. It's not a matter of IF but rather WHEN Intel capitalization is in the Trillions.

$Intel(INTC)$  111Lost $112 on the close shakeout, but I think it opens around $104-105 tomorrow and closes above $115. Nancy bought $1M - $5M in common stock around $115 back in late May. She isn't the type to settle for break-even, so they're going to keep pushing this thing higher even if it is the Lutnick special.

$Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ $Apple(AAPL)$ Bouncy action and back up we go. Buyers stepped back in. The market is just too strong. The economy and AI trade feel unstoppable. Anyone who actually participates in the economy knows this. Waiting to see some resolution in the Middle East. I don't know about others, but we can't keep up. Our clients don't care about rate hikes, they just want it built. Another gap up could be coming.

$Webull Corp(BULL)$ $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$ $Intel(INTC)$ $Rum Group Inc(RUM)$ $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$ Even with the drop this past week, overall I'm still very close to all-time highs. Hoping things hold up well from here.

Bank of America analyst Vivek Arya expects the global semiconductor industry's total addressable market to reach $3.2 trillion by 2030, nearly doubling from an estimated $1.7 trillion this year. The forecast comes as investors debate whether a potential slowdown in AI development could weaken chip demand, but Arya expects the industry's longer-term growth trajectory to remain strong. According to BofA, the expansion would be driven primarily by accelerating demand for memory chips and data-center infrastructure, while recoveries in the automotive and industrial semiconductor markets would provide additional growth. The outlook suggests that AI-related demand could remain an important catalyst for the sector even if spending growth becomes more disciplined. BofA sees Micron as a potential l

$Intel(INTC)$ They can't defend it during regular trading, so they lean on illiquid overnight or premarket action, or both. If it opens down, it likely costs them even more to pile on an absurd number of FTDs just to push this lower. When a stock gets hit 7-10%, they are basically taking positions away from holders. My algorithm runs a buy-the-falling-knife negative social score strategy. It wins a lot. Any stock down 5% or more within a 5-hour window, it looks for entries and waits. The market is 1000% psychological and data driven.

$Intel(INTC)$ LUMENTUMDo not be fooled; no one will slow down AI development. Neither USA nor China. Very bullish until 2030. It is a strategic race. Confirmed orders until 2030 will triple Semiconductor chips from the current level. Easy double from here.
