Intel just scored a massive deal to build Apple's chips inside the United States. President Donald Trump announced the partnership, causing Intel's stock to instantly shoot up over 9% in early trading.

## Idea

Landing a contract to manufacture chips for Apple is a huge validation of Intel's turnaround strategy to become a major domestic foundry. Big partnership announcements like this often draw in massive investor attention and momentum, pushing the stock higher over several days as people digest the long-term implications. Because the stock is already surging, jumping in means riding that positive excitement.
