- Prediction: This Will Be Intel's Stock Price by Year-End 2027
The author notes Intel was out of favor two years ago, posting an $18.8 billion net loss for 2024 while trailing Nvidia in AI and Taiwan's foundries in manufacturing. In 2025, the U.S. government, Nvidia and SoftBank invested $8.9 billion, $5 billion and $2 billion in Intel common stock. Intel began high-volume manufacturing of Panther Lake on 18A in July, but its $20 billion stock offering in August at $95 a share dilutes existing shareholders. The author is positive, expecting shares to trade between $110 and $130 by end-2027 if the Panther Lake ramp goes to plan, versus the low $90s today, and roughly the high $60s to low $80s if the ramp stumbles.
- One Stock Just Suffered Its Worst Session in 50 Years, and the US Government Takes a $12 Billion Hit
Intel shares fell about 29% on October 30 after the chipmaker forecast weaker-than-expected business results, citing the closure of a factory in Israel and a continued slump in the PC market. Its forecast for the quarter of adjusted EPS of $0.25 and revenue of $15-16 billion compares with analyst expectations of $0.43 and $17.1 billion, according to LSEG. The U.S. government, which holds 10% of Intel, lost about $12 billion in value, while Nvidia, another major shareholder, lost about $6 billion. The stock had risen about 150% year to date, supported by demand for CPUs used in agentic AI. D.A. Davidson downgraded the stock from buy to neutral, saying the current valuation is hard to justify given the clear weakness.
- Better Artificial Intelligence Stock for 2026: Intel vs. NVIDIA
The article compares Intel (INTC) and NVIDIA (NVDA) as AI stocks, weighing Intel’s turnaround effort against NVIDIA’s position as the leading GPU maker. Intel reported fiscal 2025 revenue of $52.9 billion, down 0.5%, a net loss of $267.0 million and negative free cash flow of $4.9 billion. NVIDIA’s fiscal year ended Jan. 25, 2026 brought revenue of $215.9 billion, up 65.5%, net income of $120.1 billion and free cash flow of $96.7 billion. Intel’s risks include rival AI innovation and regulatory scrutiny, while NVIDIA’s include customer concentration, geopolitical exposure in Taiwan, export controls and legal challenges over its $20 billion Groq deal. The author says they would choose NVIDIA between the two.
- Intel vs. Nvidia: Flat Trends vs. Rapid Expansion in Revenue
Intel grew revenue 25% in its latest quarter, far behind the 106% year-over-year rise Nvidia posted in its most recent quarter. Intel has begun installing specialized production tools at a new Arizona facility and faces a major lawsuit before the U.S. Supreme Court over the management of its employee retirement investment plans. Nvidia committed $1 billion over five years to independent scientific research and expanded its share repurchase authorization by $150 billion. The article notes that Nvidia faces charges of circular financing, while Intel's 18A process and improving foundry outlook could signal that its revenue struggles are ending. Intel trades at 59 times forward earnings versus 23 for Nvidia, and the article argues Nvidia's faster growth at a lower valuation still stands unless Intel's rebound continues or the financing concerns materialize, in which case investors would need to revisit the comparison.

Erste Group raised its fiscal 2027 EPS forecast to $1.59 from $1.56.

- Why investors are dumping tech stocks, in one image
The article argues that tech stocks are falling for fundamental reasons: free cash flow at Big Tech leaders is drying up while capital expenditure rises sharply, leading investors to question whether this ratio is out of line with more realistic AI growth projections. According to The Kobeissi Letter, combined capex at Amazon, Alphabet, Meta and Microsoft rose $36.9 billion in the third quarter to $201.9 billion, more than doubling over 12 months and up 356% since the first quarter of 2024. Combined free cash flow of the four fell $33.1 billion to a negative $26.4 billion, its lowest on record, and only Microsoft reported positive free cash flow. The strategists estimate the companies will spend another $232 billion on capex in the fourth quarter, and that Big Tech has spent $1.6 trillion on capex over the last three years. The AI trade slid on Friday, wiping out more than $1 trillion in market value.
- Silver prices today, Monday, November 2, 2026: Silver prices slide, opening at the lowest level since November 7, 2025
Silver December futures opened at $49.20 per ounce on Monday, November 2, 2026, down 0.2% from Friday's close, and traded at $50.25 by 7:21 a.m. ET. Versus the opening price, silver is down 9.1% over one week and 20.1% over one month, its largest monthly decline since September, and up just 1.6% year over year, the smallest annual gain since the daily series began. The article notes silver's year-over-year growth was 173.3% on May 14. It also explains options for investing in silver: physical bullion and coins, which involve storage, security, insurance and dealer markups, and silver ETFs, which trade through brokerage accounts but may be taxed as collectibles and carry expense ratios.
- Meet the Spectacular Vanguard ETF With 44.6% of Its Portfolio Parked in Nvidia, Alphabet, Apple, and Microsoft
The Vanguard Morningstar Mega Cap Growth ETF (MGK) tracks an index of 52 of America's most valuable growth companies, which together are worth almost as much as the other 3,424 companies in the Morningstar US Total Market index. Nvidia, Alphabet, Apple and Microsoft, with a combined market capitalization of $17.6 trillion, make up 44.6% of the fund's portfolio, and the article links them to AI efforts such as Nvidia's Vera Rubin GPU systems and Microsoft's Copilot. Since January 2023, these four stocks have a median return of 195%, although AI stocks have recently pulled back. The ETF has delivered a compound annual return of 13.8% since 2007, versus 10.9% for the S&P 500, but the article notes its concentration in 52 stocks means diversification may help reduce downside risk. In the article's example, $20,000 in an S&P 500 fund in 2007 would be worth $142,800 today, while putting $10,000 into each of the S&P 500 and this ETF would have reached $188,000.
- Cloud Numbers Are In; This Week the Spotlight Moves to Phones, Laptops and Chips
Microsoft, Alphabet and Amazon reported third-quarter results last week, with next-session share moves ranging from a fractional dip to a double-digit drop. Attention now turns to consumer hardware, with Apple reporting fourth-quarter results on Monday, November 2, and Qualcomm reporting on Wednesday, November 4, after the close. Purchases of property and equipment rose sharply: Microsoft $39.4 billion (vs. $19.4 billion), Alphabet $51.4 billion (vs. $24.0 billion) and Amazon $77.3 billion (vs. $35.1 billion), and Amazon still expects about $220 billion in 2026 cash capital expenditures. The article notes rising semiconductor input costs, which Qualcomm said it is reflecting in product pricing, and that Apple's June-quarter gross margin of 50.1 percent included about 2 percentage points from tariff refunds.
- Revival Gold Advances Pre-Feasibility Study and Permitting Work at Mercur, Utah's Largest Primary Gold Development Project
Revival Gold has completed about 24 kilometer of resource delineation drilling at Mercur in Utah over 18 months to upgrade Inferred resources to the Measured & Indicated category. Its consultants are updating resource models and a geometallurgical model, and 18 column leach tests supporting the PFS have been completed, with full results expected later this month. Another 11 column leach tests, using four new composites, are expected to report in Q1 2027. A trade-off study favored the Main Mercur heap leach site over West Mercur for more favorable geotechnical conditions and shorter ore haulage distances, though the site is more constrained. The company targets an updated MRE, a PFS and a possible Notice of Intention to revise the LMO permit by the end of Q1 2027.
