Paul Pelosi, Nancy Pelosi's husband, bought Intel shares valued at $500,001 to $1,000,000 and Intel options valued at $250,001 to $500,000 on July 24, 2026, a combined position of up to $1.5 million. Intel then plunged roughly 30% in one session on October 30 after warning the PC slump could last into next year, its worst single-day drop since 1974. Although third-quarter revenue rose 20.9% to $16.51 billion and adjusted EPS beat estimates, Client Computing revenue fell 5%, and fourth-quarter guidance called for $15.0 billion to $16.0 billion in revenue and $0.25 adjusted EPS. The NANC fund, which mirrors trades by Democratic lawmakers, held just 9,814 Intel shares, or 0.49% of its net assets, as of June 30.

- Amazon Vs. Intel: The Good Burn and The Very Bad Burn
Amazon and Intel both reported third-quarter results on October 29, 2026, with strong AI numbers, but Intel shares fell from $93.09 to $59.97 while Amazon was down 9.71% over six months. AWS revenue rose 39% to $45.98B with a $578 billion backlog, but Amazon's capex jumped 120% to $77.26B, leaving a trailing free cash outflow of $42.4B despite a 13.9% operating margin. Intel's Data Center and AI revenue rose 78% to $7.32B, but Intel Foundry lost $1.85B and external foundry revenue was only $411 million. Intel raised $23B in new equity and warned it probably will not generate positive free cash flow next year as it ramps Intel 18A, Intel 3 and 14A simultaneously. The article views Amazon's spending as a 'good burn' backed by signed demand, while Intel suits turnaround investors who can tolerate a cash-negative 2027 and would change their view once named foundry customers sign on.
- The Zacks Analyst Blog Highlights AMD, NVIDIA, Broadcom and Intel
AMD is scheduled to report its third-quarter 2026 results on November 3, guiding to revenue of $13 billion (±$300 million), up 41% year over year and 13% sequentially, while the Zacks consensus is $13.12 billion, up 42%. The consensus EPS estimate is $1.94 per share, up 61.7% year over year, and AMD has beaten Zacks consensus earnings estimates in each of the past four quarters, by an average of 6.74%. The article says demand for EPYC server processors, Instinct MI350-series GPUs and Ryzen chips may support results, though competition from NVIDIA, Broadcom and Intel adds pressure. AMD shares have surged 135.7% year to date, versus 9.7% for the Zacks Computer and Technology sector, while Intel is up 78.2%, NVIDIA is up 9.8%, and Broadcom has dropped 5.8%. Its Value Score of F points to a stretched valuation, with forward 12-month price/sales of 10.27X versus the sector's 5.17X.
- Intel Stock's October Was Its Worst Month Since at Least 1980. History Says What Can Come Next.
Intel (INTC) stock fell 45% in October to $65.76, from $120.23 at the end of September, its worst month since at least 1980. Most of the drop came on October 30, when shares fell 29% after Intel’s third-quarter results and a fourth-quarter non-GAAP EPS forecast of just $0.25, under half the $0.52 it had just earned. As of October 30, the stock was still up about 78% for 2026 but roughly 53% below its June 22 high of $140.94. The article compares this with past sharp declines in September 2000, June 2002, October 1987 and 2024, where outcomes varied. The author argues that what matters most is whether Intel’s profits rebound, and since weak PC demand may keep profits falling for several more quarters, he does not view the drop as an investment opportunity.
- Intel foundry push faces critical test after stock's 45% plunge in October
Intel shares plunged 29% on Friday, their worst day since the 1970s, after the company forecast this quarter's revenue would be $1 billion to $2 billion below analysts' estimates amid a weak PC market hit by rising memory costs. The stock had already dropped 45% in October, the steepest monthly decline on record according to FactSet. Despite spending a large chunk of its $108 billion in capital expenditures over about five years to challenge TSMC in foundry, Intel still has no marquee customer for its most advanced chips. Data center revenue rose 78% to $7.3 billion in the third quarter, but Intel says it can't make enough chips to meet demand and is shifting some Oregon capacity from 18A to the older Intel 3 node, which could complicate efforts to win outside foundry customers. CEO Lip-Bu Tan said “a couple customers” would be announced within the next two quarters.
- These 2 Tech Stocks Both Fell 29% on Friday. Are They Buying Opportunities Now?
Intel and Reddit both fell nearly 29% on Friday after their earnings reports, even though neither company had a bad quarter. Intel's third-quarter revenue rose 21% to $16.5 billion and beat its own guidance, but its fourth-quarter outlook of $15 billion to $16 billion fell short of the roughly $17 billion analysts expected, weighed down by PC weakness as AI data centers absorb memory chips. Reddit's third-quarter revenue rose 53% to $895 million, but search traffic fell meaningfully and U.S. daily users slipped 2% to 50.7 million. The article says Intel's problem may be cyclical, while Reddit's concern looks more lasting, since there is no guarantee AI search will drive as much traffic as traditional search did.
- AMD to report Q3 results following disappointing showing from Intel
AMD will report third-quarter results after the bell on Tuesday, as Wall Street looks for signs of AI chip demand after a sharp AI-trade sell-off and a disappointing Q4 outlook from Intel (INTC) last week. Intel guided Q4 revenue to $15 billion to $16 billion, well below the $17 billion analysts expected, sending its stock down nearly 29%; the company blamed a steeper-than-expected decline in the PC market. Analysts expect AMD to earn $1.97 per share on $13 billion in revenue, versus $1.20 and $9.2 billion a year earlier. Data Center sales are forecast at $8.19 billion, up 88% from $4.34 billion, while the gaming business could fall 49% to $655 million as higher memory and storage prices weigh on demand. Client revenue, which includes PC sales, is projected at more than $3.06 billion, up 11% year over year but flat sequentially.

- 3 reasons why the tech stock rout is growing more alarming
Tech stocks are being sold more aggressively, columnist Brian Sozzi writes, even though Apple (AAPL) posted a strong quarter with double-digit iPhone sales growth and Palantir (PLTR) reported a big quarter and outlook; both fell in premarket trading on Tuesday. Analysts remain bullish, yet investors are not buying top tech names despite valuation discounts versus a month ago and historical averages, with Nvidia (NVDA) cited as an example. The S&P 493 has also started slipping as the market recognizes that most companies are tied to the AI boom; if AI-driven productivity gains arrive more slowly than expected, the entire market may need to be re-rated.
- Rate Hikes Could Be Coming: History Likes These 4 Bank Stocks
The Federal Reserve is gearing up to raise rates again, and Wall Street's four biggest banks are not equally positioned to benefit; history shows at least one of them lost ground in past tightening cycles. The Fed raised rates in September for the first time in 3 years, leaving the upper bound of the federal funds target range at 4.00%, and Kalshi traders put a 72% market-implied probability on another 25-basis-point hike at the December 9 meeting. Rising rates typically widen banks' net interest margins, but only JPMorgan rose in all three past hiking cycles; it trades at 13x forward earnings, the highest multiple in the group, with loan losses as its main risk. Bank of America estimates a 100-basis-point rise would add approximately $1.40 billion to net interest income over 12 months, but its main risk is unrealized bond losses, and the stock slid 24.8% in the last cycle. Citigroup has the cheapest multiple at 9x forward earnings but the weakest track record.

- Dip Buyers in Leveraged Tech ETFs Are Getting Crushed
Billions flowed into leveraged semiconductor and tech ETFs as prices fell in October, but daily-reset funds make waiting for a rebound more costly the longer it takes. The Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X ETF (SOXL) drew $7.27 billion of net new money in October, about 29.91% of its $24.31 billion in assets, yet fell 47.89% over the month, while the ProShares UltraPro QQQ (TQQQ) drew $3.49 billion and fell 20.53%. Net flows do not show who bought, at what price, or whether they still hold. From October 6 to November 2, SOXL lost 58.50% versus 23.04% for the unleveraged iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX), reflecting the compounding effect of daily resets. To recover to its October 29 close, SOXL needs about 50.2% while SOXX needs about 13.3%.
- Anthropic targets doubling computing capacity to 7 gigawatts next year, NYT report
According to the New York Times, Anthropic expects more than 3.5 gigawatts of computing capacity by the end of this year and aims to double that next year, enough electricity to power all the homes in Chicago. The company has accumulated $895.4 billion in commitments for data centers, chips and computing power through 2045, per its updated IPO prospectus, with nearly $70 billion expected to take effect over the next 12 months. It sources computing power from neoclouds Fluidstack, Lambda and Nscale and has major agreements with Google ($121.3 billion), Amazon ($110 billion), Microsoft ($44.9 billion) and SpaceX ($120.5 billion). The company is also taking a more hands-on role in infrastructure, hiring construction and supply-chain specialists and buying equipment such as cooling systems. The article notes that access to electricity and computing infrastructure is becoming a critical competitive advantage, while raising questions about returns on increasingly expensive capacity commitments.
