Intel lands massive Apple chip deal — ride the breakout momentum
Created
Thesis
Landing a partnership with Apple to produce chips domestically is a game-changer for Intel, guaranteeing massive revenue and validating their expensive push into running their own factories. When news this big breaks, institutional money often takes days or weeks to fully reposition, creating a wave of buying pressure. While the initial 9% pop is large, history shows that when a struggling company finally secures a landmark deal, the positive momentum can carry the stock significantly higher as confidence returns. Riding this wave of good news while the broader market remains supportive of U.S. manufacturing presents a solid opportunity.
Strategy approach
Build a momentum continuation strategy that enters long INTC on the 1-hour timeframe when the price is above the 20-day moving average and RSI(14) is between 60 and 75. Exit conditions: close position if INTC drops below the 20-day moving average, or set a tight 5% trailing stop to lock in gains. Maximum hold time of 14 days.
