NASDAQ, the US stock market is experiencing another unprecedented major crisis.
The surge in Intel shares is just a minor exception, and a completely unexpected result.
After all, Intel has always wanted to shed its manufacturing operations, planning to focus solely on IC design.
Chip factories are indeed high-tech, but they do not always represent high profits. The success stories like TSMC's have their inevitable accidents, and for Intel, dealing with manufacturing is hard, solid work. In the latter years of the original timeline, they had been continuously selling off their chip factories.
However, no one expected that due to TSMC's mishap, Intel would temporarily become the only supplier of high-end processing technology, and even though the overall market trend was pessimistic and downward, Intel still managed to go against the trend and rise.
