The first Panther Lake engineering samples, made with Intel/IFS’s 18A, are currently being tested by major PC ODM/EMS makers. My early 2025 industry survey showed 18A yields below 20-30%, so there’s still a lot of room to step up—which doesn’t bode well for Intel’s goal of hitting mass production in 2H25. On top of the tech challenges, IFS faces a big obstacle in winning outside orders due to its org setup, supply chain mgt, and culture. That’s where TSMC totally stands out.$Palantir Tech(PLTR.US) $Taiwan Semiconductor(TSM.US) $Intel(INTC.US) $Intercorp Financial Services(IFS.US)
