Overview
Intel Corporation is a pioneering force in the global semiconductor industry, known for its dominance in the x86 processor market for decades. Founded in 1968 and headquartered in Santa Clara, California, Intel produces microprocessors, chipsets, graphics, and data center solutions, and is expanding aggressively into foundry services and artificial intelligence hardware.
While Intel once led the industry in chip design and manufacturing, it has faced increasing competition from AMD, NVIDIA, and TSMC. In response, the company has launched a multi-year transformation plan focused on revitalizing its process technology roadmap, expanding its foundry business (Intel Foundry Services), and investing in AI, automotive, and edge computing markets. Intel remains a key stock for value investors seeking exposure to U.S.-based chipmaking and dividend income.
