Trump Administration in Talks to Acquire Stake in Intel to Bolster US Chipmaking
Taarek Refaat The Trump administration is in discussions with Intel Corp. over a potential government stake in the struggling chipmaker, aiming to accelerate domestic semiconductor manufacturing, according to Bloomberg. The proposed investment would support Intel's long-delayed Ohio chip facility, once promised as the world's largest semiconductor plant, which has faced repeated construction setbacks and mounting financial strain. The size of the stake under consideration has not been disclosed. Intel stock price surged 7.38% to $23.86 following the news. The talks follow a meeting earlier this week between President Donald Trump and Intel Chief Executive Lip-Bu Tan. One source said the U.S. government would pay for the stake, while another cautioned that the plan remains fluid. Intel declined to comment on the negotiations but said in a statement that it was 'deeply committed to supporting President Trump's efforts to strengthen America's leadership in technology and manufacturing,' adding that it would not address 'rumors or speculation.' The White House did not respond to requests for comment. A deal could bolster Intel's balance sheet as it cuts spending and reduces headcount, while also signaling that Tan is likely to remain in his position despite earlier calls from Trump for his removal over concerns about his ties to China. The move would mark another example of Trump's direct intervention in strategic industries. His administration recently secured rights to 15% of certain semiconductor sales to China and acquired a so-called 'golden share' in United States Steel Corp. as part of approving its sale to a Japanese competitor. The Pentagon last month also took a $400 million preferred stake in MP Materials Corp., a U.S. rare-earth producer, an unprecedented step that made it the company's largest shareholder. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 Videos & Features Story behind Trending Jessica Radcliffe Death Video News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt News The Jessica Radcliffe Orca Attack? 100% Fake and AI-Generated
