Why Intel Stock Is Jumping Today
(NASDAQ: INTC) stock is roaring higher in Wednesday trading thanks to a combination of bullish catalysts. The company's share price was up 5.4% as of 12:30 p.m. ET amid the backdrop of a 1.6% gain for the S 500 and a 2.3% rally for the Nasdaq Composite.
The stock market is jumping thanks to news that the Trump administration is interested in lowering tariffs on China and reducing trade war tensions, and Intel is a getting a significant valuation boost from the trend. Shares are also moving higher thanks to a report from Bloomberg that says the company plans to lay off 20% of its workforce.
Recent comments from President Donald Trump, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, and White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt suggest that the administration is interested in making a trade deal with China that will significantly lower tariffs on the country's goods. If a deal were to materialize in the near future, it could be a substantial bullish catalyst for Intel stock and the market at large.
