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.

- Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) Stock Price Up 1.7% – Here's Why
Intel shares rose 1.7% on Friday, trading as high as $87.87 and last at $86.96, versus a prior close of $85.49. Mid-day volume was 71,560,092 shares, down 38% from the average of 115,776,344. Supportive news included an FCC waiver allowing Intel to keep using foreign-made robotic devices and Wedbush's view that its Arizona chip plant could provide a potential boost. Investors are positioning ahead of the October 29 quarterly report, where strong server-CPU demand and recent price increases are cited as possible drivers, while Erste Group raised its fiscal 2027 EPS forecast to $1.59 from $1.56, above the consensus of $1.05. Risks include a third-quarter adjusted EPS outlook of $0.38, below the prior quarter's $0.42, analyst questions about foundry yields and scale, and Nvidia's expansion into CPUs.

- Intel and AMD Rise 4% as JPMorgan Upgrades Intel After Steep Pullback; NVIDIA Edges Higher
JPMorgan upgraded Intel (INTC) to Neutral from Underweight after its steep slide from a June peak, and Intel shares rose 4% to $93.68, while AMD gained 4% to $547.23 and NVIDIA rose 2% to $217.97. Analyst Harlan Sur says Intel's execution has improved since Lip-Bu Tan became CEO and expects agentic AI workloads and a tight leading-edge chip supply to drive positive earnings estimate revisions. He still expects Intel to lose market share for a few more quarters, especially in server processors, leaving the risk and reward more balanced. Intel's third-quarter 2026 results are slated for release after the market closes on October 29, a date the company has not confirmed.
- Is Intel Stock a Buy After Its Post-Earnings Plunge?
Intel shares fell sharply after hours on Thursday, from a $92.07 regular-session close to about $71, following third-quarter results. Revenue rose 21% year over year to $16.5 billion and adjusted EPS of $0.52 beat guidance, but the fourth-quarter outlook of $15.0–16.0 billion in revenue and $0.25 in EPS was weaker. Data center and AI revenue jumped 78% to $7.3 billion, while PC-related revenue fell 5% to $8.1 billion. Intel expects PC segment revenue to drop over 20% next quarter as industry PC units shrink about 12% in 2026 and 10% in 2027, and an accident that shut its Fab 28 plant in Israel also weighs on results. The author judges it is not yet time to buy, given the stock trades near 33 times expected 2027 earnings and the diluted share count is expected to be about 20% above the third quarter of 2025.

- Is Adobe the Ultimate Buy-on-the-Dip Stock?
The article argues Adobe faces the risk of being replaced by AI-generated images, though the company is adding AI tools to its software. Its subscription revenue has kept growing at a slow but steady pace, with little change from the 2022 growth rate, while the stock is down about 60% from its late 2021 peak. Adobe now trades at 11 times forward earnings, a level that reflects market skepticism. The author doubts Adobe can achieve 20% to 30% growth or regain its valuation, and even a rise to 20 times forward earnings would amount to a single doubling followed by market-average growth. Although the author thinks the outlook is not as bad as the market believes, investors do not need to hold Adobe stock when many solid AI stocks are available.
- Is Apple a Top Tech Stock to Buy Now?
The article notes Apple is up about 27% in 2026 and has lifted revenue growth above 10% year over year, but argues that growth may fade once the current smartphone upgrade cycle ends. It notes that Apple's stock has twice exceeded 40 times earnings over the past decade, and each time the valuation fell by 25% to around 30 times earnings or lower, a pattern the author expects could repeat in 2027. With analysts projecting about 10% revenue growth in 2027, the author sees Apple growing at roughly the S&P 500's average pace, while the index trades at 23.2 times earnings. The author therefore concludes there are better stocks than Apple to consider now and that Apple's valuation is unlikely to rise much further from current levels.
- A Stock Market Correction Could Be Coming. Here's Why I'm Still Investing.
The S&P 500's Shiller cyclically adjusted P/E is now about 41, its highest level since August 2000, when it stood at 41.89 and the market had already entered the early stage of a bear market that lasted until November 2022. The author says it is impossible to know whether a correction is imminent and that the market could keep rising. The author suggests keeping portfolios diversified, rebalancing if they are top-heavy in tech, scaling back positions in stocks valued well above their typical ranges, and adding value, dividend, and high-quality stocks. The author also views discounted tech, AI, or growth stocks as worth examining, provided investors research why they are cheap and whether their fundamentals remain strong.
- S&P Says Meta Can’t Make Money From AI as Well as Its Rivals
S&P Global Ratings affirmed Meta's AA- rating but revised its outlook to negative, citing heavy AI capital spending, negative free cash flow, and doubts that Meta can monetize its AI investments as well as peers. S&P now expects capex above $225 billion in 2027, up from $163 billion previously, pushing adjusted leverage to 1.1x, past its 1.0x downgrade threshold, which could lead to a downgrade if the forecast holds. Meta disputed S&P's assessment, citing significant product and business opportunities ahead. To help fund the buildout, Meta sold $25.0 billion of Class A stock and $12.5 billion of mandatory convertible preferred stock, about $37.5 billion in total, and plans a $60 billion Class C at-the-market program starting in January 2027. The stock closed at $614.99, down 1.53%, after October's 15.2% decline made it Meta's worst month in four years.
- Should You Trade Crypto OTC to Avoid Bank Account Freezes?
A reader asks whether switching from P2P to OTC crypto trading would avoid the risk of bank account freezes. The expert says OTC addresses some P2P drawbacks, especially for large trades, but the risk does not automatically fall; it shifts to the counterparty, source of funds, assets and disputes. Investors should verify their counterparty's legal status, identity and ability to explain the source of funds, and keep full records such as wallet addresses, transaction hashes and bank statements. Under Resolution 05/2025, only Ministry of Finance-licensed organizations may provide crypto-asset services, and six months after the first licensed provider is granted a license, domestic investors trading outside licensed entities may face penalties. Decree 284/2026, effective in September, adds penalties for violations, so investors should be cautious with self-described 'OTC desks' or 'brokers'.
- Looking For Growth, Income, and Stability? This Stock Could Offer All 3
The article argues that Amgen combines growth, income and stability. In the second quarter, revenue rose 10% year over year to $10.1 billion, and 22 products posted at least double-digit sales growth despite the upcoming loss of patent exclusivity for denosumab. Newer therapies such as Tezspire, Tepezza and Imdelltra are driving growth, and MariTide, an investigational GLP-1 medicine in Phase 3 studies, could launch within a few years. The stock rose about 16% in 2022 when broader equities fell, and the dividend has grown 152% over the past decade. With a trailing-12-month cash payout ratio of 51.9% and a forward yield of 2.3% versus the S&P 500's average of 1.1%, the author considers Amgen suitable for income-focused investors.
