Trump Administration Considers Intel Stake to Strengthen U.S. Semiconductor Dominance

BTCCSquare news:
The Trump administration is exploring a strategic stake in Intel, marking a significant shift in U.S. industrial policy. This move aims to secure domestic production of advanced semiconductors, reducing reliance on foreign manufacturers like TSMC and Samsung. Intel, which has lost 60% of its market value in 2024, could benefit from government backing to compete in the AI chip market, currently dominated by Nvidia and AMD.
The initiative aligns with broader efforts to curb China's access to cutting-edge chips, including a 15% levy on certain Nvidia and AMD sales. A government stake in Intel WOULD provide both financial support and political leverage to revive its struggling foundry business and delayed projects.
