Is Intel Stock a Buy?
Intel (NASDAQ: INTC), one of the world's largest chipmakers, has lost more than half of its market value over the past five years. Its business sputtered out as it grappled with production delays, chip shortages, and jarring strategic changes under different CEOs. But could Intel's stock be worth buying again as it trades at its lowest prices in more than a decade?
The company is the world's largest producer of x86 CPUs for PCs and servers. It designs and manufactures most of its own chips; its smaller competitor, AMD, outsources its production to third-party foundries like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, or TSMC.
For decades, Intel manufactured the world's smallest, densest, and most powerful x86 CPUs. But with each generational upgrade, it became more challenging and expensive to manufacture smaller chips. As a result, many chipmakers -- including AMD -- spun off their capital-intensive foundries and outsourced the entire manufacturing process.
