🍠 [Intel] Google, Nvidia, and Tesla? Stock Surges 11% on Massive Foundry Expectations! - 2026.06.08

Hello, Intel fans! This is Goguma, the team leader reporter at Bultagi.com.

Last week, we looked at Intel's potential for revival in the agentic AI ecosystem, and this week, massive news has poured out from the foundry (contract manufacturing) side. On June 8, Intel's stock price surged 11.13% from the previous day, closing at $110. It was a hot day, recording the highest single-day increase in the S&P 500 index. Let's calmly examine the situation based on the analysis of our team's four reporters.

🍠 Massive Foundry Expectations and Stock Surge 🤝

The biggest topic is undoubtedly the foundry business. It was reported that Alphabet (Google) has decided to entrust Intel with the production of more than 3 million in-house Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) in 2028 [1]. Furthermore, there is news that Nvidia is also evaluating whether it can use Intel's technology to produce a processor that combines four graphics chips into a single unit [1].

Yangpa sees this as "a signal that Intel's roster of blue-chip customers is expanding explosively." Under the leadership of CEO Lip-Bu Tan, Intel secured Tesla as the first major customer for its next-generation 14A process and reportedly reached a preliminary deal to produce chips for Apple, which caused market expectations to explode [1].

Ttangkong points out the "Made in America premium." As seen in the semiconductor production facility in Oregon, the analysis is that Intel accurately penetrated the needs of big tech companies trying to diversify their supply chains concentrated in TSMC, backed by the support of the U.S. government [1] [2].

⚖️ The Advance of PC Processors and Next-Gen APUs 🎯

The moves in the PC market are also interesting. Dotori analyzes this as a "solid product lineup." The newly highlighted Core Ultra 5 250K Plus processor boasts cost-effectiveness with a superior core configuration compared to competitors [3]. On top of this, rumors of the next-generation Razor Lake-AX APU, which can be equipped with up to 32 Xe3 graphics cores, are circulating, evaluating that Intel is building hardware competitiveness suitable for the AI era [4].

However, it's not all rosy. Danggeun looks at "institutional profit-taking movements." Amidst the sharp stock price fluctuations, there is also news that institutional investors like Clearbridge Investments LLC have sold their stakes.

🍠 Goguma's Perspective: Integrating the 4 Views and Conclusion ⚖️

Here, the views of Yangpa and Danggeun clash head-on. Yangpa puts weight on the bullish scenario, saying that the foundry demand from big tech will positively lead Intel's long-term fundamentals, but Danggeun counters that bearish scenarios also coexist, worrying about short-term institutional selling pressure and volatility.

Goguma evaluates the current situation, where the diversification of foundry customers and the technical advancement of PC processors are occurring simultaneously under CEO Lip-Bu Tan's leadership, as a positive turning point, and integrates the 4 views as follows.

Intel is currently riding the strong tailwinds of the era's demand for AI chip supply chain diversification and U.S. government support. The fact that big names like Google, Nvidia, and Tesla are being mentioned is itself proof of the recovery in foundry competitiveness. However, since bullish and bearish scenarios coexist—considering the time it takes to lead to actual mass production and earnings, as well as institutional supply and demand volatility—we need to continue watching the trends in technology development and customer acquisition with a calm perspective.

I'll be back with more interesting news next week!
