The Art of the Deal, 2025 Edition

He's taking his signature deal-making approach straight to the markets—claiming the 10% Intel play isn't just a one-off, but a template. No vague promises here—just the same bold moves that defined his first term, now applied to corporate ownership.

Why Wall Street's Watching

Love him or hate him—you can't ignore him. When Trump talks stakes, markets listen. And if he's serious about doing this 'all day long,' we might be looking at a new era of government-meets-corporate strategy. Just what every hedge fund manager needed—more presidential tweets to trade around.

Bottom line: whether you're bullish or skeptical, one thing's clear—Trump's back, and he's playing for keeps. After all, what could go wrong with a leader who treats the stock market like his personal acquisition dashboard?

“I will make deals like that for our Country all day long,” wrote the president on social media, adding that “stupid people” are upset with a MOVE that should bring more money and jobs to the U.S. “I love seeing their stock price go up, making the USA RICHER, AND RICHER… More jobs for America!!!”

President Trump’s social media post comes after WHITE House economic advisor Kevin Hassett said the 10% stake that Intel gave the government is part of a broader strategy to create a sovereign wealth fund that could help more American companies grow and succeed.

Deal Making

Some analysts and politicians criticized the U.S. government’s 10% stake in Intel, saying it marks an incursion of federal involvement within America’s private sector. The federal government’s 10% stake in Intel is worth $8.9 billion.

While stressing that the government won’t involve itself in Intel’s operations, Hassett said the move is part of an ongoing plan by the Trump administration. “Well, I think this is a very, very special circumstance because of the massive amount of CHIPS Act spending that was coming in,” Hassett said in a media interview. President Trump signed an executive order earlier this year to start a sovereign wealth fund.

Is INTC Stock a Buy?

The stock of Intel has a consensus Hold rating among 29 Wall Street analysts. That rating is based on one Buy, 25 Hold, and three Sell recommendations issued in the last three months. The average INTC price target of $22.17 implies 12.85% downside from current levels.
