Internal manufacturing can’t compete with TSMC for PPAC , TTM, or service or quality.
IFS only chance is to be defense supplier of low volume and incredibly high cost RD and manufacturing. Probably far cheaper to protect Taiwan than waste money on Intel fabs and TMG

Previous CEO Bob said INTC worth $ 300 Billions so Intel didn't like that and laid him off like any other employees and replaced with another CEO Pat that brought INTC down to all most $ 99 Billions which made Intel employees and managers so happy because they still has a job to mess things up and get paid to be in leadership position ( or leadershit in case your brain can think reversely).
Id--t sh1tshow parade haha
Apple 2.95 Trillion
Microsoft 2.8 Trillion
Google 1.73 Trillion
Meta 0.86 Trillion
These guys are also designing chips with TSMC.
Good luck competing with their pooled R&D dollars going into Taiwan.
Intel market cap is still around 180 billions dollars as of today. Not die yet. The wishful leadership is still at the bottom of the race that need more whip to the butt. The race is still on until Moore law can magically work again for Intel or actually Intel managers can bring him back 🤔
Nvidia market cap 1.18 TRILLION
TSMC market cap: 470 Billion
AMD market cap 197 Billion
Where the fu€k is Intel ?
Intel will become a holding company, notching more.
