# Intel surged 40% on the 8th, the strongest in nearly 38 years, analysts say it is gradually emerging from the trough

U.S. large technology stocks generally rose last Friday, with Amazon continuing its over 5% increase from Thursday, closing up another 2% on Friday; Nvidia surged 2.6%, making it the best-performing component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Notably, Intel's stock price has risen for 8 consecutive trading days, accumulating a 41% increase, marking the strongest 8-day rise in nearly 38 years. Analysts believe that Intel's market may have gradually emerged from its low point, but they also caution that Intel has not fully overcome its challenges.

Intel closed up 1.07% last Friday, at $62.38, rising 24% for the week, and approximately 41% over the 8 trading days, achieving its strongest 8-day performance since November 1987. This surge in Intel's stock is primarily driven by the increasing demand for server CPUs fueled by artificial intelligence, as well as the company's recent active expansion of partnerships.

## Long-term still depends on foundry business

Seaport Research analyst Jay Goldberg assesses that Intel's situation has shown signs of a turnaround. He points out that the company appears to have gradually emerged from its low point and is beginning to regain growth momentum. However, Goldberg warns that Intel has not fully overcome its difficulties, and its long-term competitiveness still depends on whether its foundry business can successfully transform. The critical 14A process node still requires several years of development, and there is still some distance to go before full commercial use
