Intel's manufacturing finally turns the corner as AI chip demand explodes — accu
Created
Thesis
Intel's new manufacturing process is finally reaching a stage where they can confidently attract outside customers, marking a huge step in their turnaround story. At the same time, the broader chip sector is getting a massive boost from AI demand, evidenced by Micron's explosive jump thanks to the need for high-bandwidth memory. As investors hunt for the next AI winners, a newly competitive Intel offers a great opportunity to ride the broader hardware boom.
Strategy approach
Build a rule-based strategy that enters long INTC on H4 when MACD(12, 26, 9) bullish crossover occurs AND price is above the 50-day EMA. Exit on a 10% profit target or a 5% stop loss. Hold max 30 days.
