Intel's stock is bouncing back after a rough week as investors remember its strong position in traditional computer chips, while tech giants like Alphabet are simultaneously raising massive amounts of money to build new AI data centers.

## Idea

Intel took a beating over the last five trading days, but the market is remembering that the company's core processor business is still incredibly strong. At the same time, the AI building boom is accelerating, with Alphabet just upsizing its fundraising to a massive $85 billion to build out AI infrastructure. All that new AI infrastructure will still need massive amounts of traditional computing power to function, putting Intel in a sweet spot to capture fresh demand as its stock looks cheap compared to just a week ago.
