@ad what an insightful analysis.
For his next trick, he’ll show you the wonders of watching an object gasp! fall to the ground when dropped from one’s hand.
@ab irrelevant.
Real evident of AI bubbles. It will be bumping its stock up higher and higher non sense to su-k stupid people cash and then BO-M ! it will crash down suddenly to reset the scam over & over again.
Intel can’t grow from here.
Based on historical data up to early 2026, Intel’s stock was approaching or surpassing $70 again, after having not sustained such levels since the peak of the dot-com bubble in 2000.
As of mid-April 2026, Intel stock (INTC) approached the $70 mark, reaching a 52-week high of $70.33 on April 17, 2026.
Headcount at Time of 2026 Highs: Intel had approximately 85,100 employees at the end of 2025 following massive restructuring efforts that saw the company reduce its workforce from over 130,000 in previous years.
Previous Peak (2000): Intel's stock last saw such heights during the dot-com bubble, with an all-time intraday high of $75.81 in August 2000. At the end of 2000, Intel reported roughly 86,100 employees.
In summary, the last time Intel stock approached or touched the $70–75 range (both in 2000 and 2026), its headcount was in the 85,000–86,000 range.
An hour of questions in the analyst meeting
Not a one asked about a right sized Intel. Most questions about either datacenter cpu competitiveness (deflected deflected deflected) roadmap and spending on supply when clearly mktg demand constrained
If after hours reading holds intel will have a stock price never seen it it’s history.
