# Intel Stock Slips as TSMC Talks Complicate TeraFab's 14A Bet

Intel , the U.S. chip designer and foundry operator, slipped about 1.1% to $114.90 at approximately 11:29 a.m. ET on October 6, as investors weighed another potential manufacturing partner for TeraFab. According to Data Center Dynamics, Elon Musk confirmed discussions between SpaceX and TSMC. That raises questions about Intel's eventual slice of the project. It does not establish that Intel has lost work.

Intel's opportunity still needs hard numbers. Data Center Dynamics reported that the company joined TeraFab in April, offering chip design, manufacturing and packaging capabilities for AI and robotics. Musk subsequently identified Intel's 14A manufacturing process for the project. His confirmation of TSMC talks disclosed no finalized agreement, ownership arrangement or production split. Discussions are a starting point. Investors need commitments.

More manufacturing partners could help TeraFab execute, but they could also leave Intel sharing the opportunity. The picture shows shares trading 256.17% above the $32.26 GF Value estimate, suggesting substantial expectations are already built into the price. That makes the commercial details matter: how much production Intel secures, when it starts and what margins it earns. Until those terms emerge, TeraFab offers potential upsidebut no disclosed economics investors can confidently value.
