Intel stocks are trading wildly, following the big news announced today by Nvidia.

The AI chip giant has announced a plan to invest $5 billion in the semiconductor group.

The objective is to develop chips for data centers and PCs in collaboration with Intel, in which the US federal government now holds a stake, becoming the largest shareholder with a 10% stake.

From the financial terms of the agreement signed with Intel, we learn that Nvidia will pay $23.28 for each share purchased.

Intel stocks surge 30%. After Trump's move comes a surprise from Nvidia

INTC stocks immediately surged, soaring up to +30% in pre-market trading on Wall Street, to $32, after the news broke.

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang stated in a statement:

<quote>“This historic collaboration tightly integrates NVIDIA's AI and accelerated computing platform with Intel's CPUs and the vast x86 ecosystem—a fusion of two world-class platforms. Together, we will expand our ecosystems and lay the foundation for the next era of computing.”</quote>

Intel will therefore benefit from strategic support from both the US federal government and NVIDIA.

The other giant betting on the company is Softbank, which invested $2 billion in Intel in August.

Regarding Trump's move into the group, it should be remembered that, according to the US administration's announcement in August, Washington injected $8.9 billion into the capital, purchasing 433.3 million INTC stocks.

Considering the stock's jump to $32, that stake is now worth $13.9 billion.

Intel, already under special scrutiny on Wall Street following Donald Trump's move, continue to march higher.

Today's fever for Intel stocks is especially supporting the technology index Nasdaq Composite, which is up about 1%, at 22,468.32 points.
