[Redaktion]

Intel and its prominent bank investors are now analyzing solutions that can quickly help stabilize the dire financial situation. Plans include a spinoff for the fab business, althogh axing certain fab expansions is more likely.

Ahhh yes - the ultimate "boss": Stock holders

The idea/concept of purchasing a 'share' of a company wherein you HOPE to get a ROI (return on investment) on ether or both of the value of the stock itself or dividends paid out to stock holders.

Owning 'shares' allows you to use them to 'vote' at stock holder meetings.

Forgetting for the moment that Intel stock has been a 'turd' since the 1990's there was always vein hope that the company could 'take off' and evolve into something valuable and interesting.

IMHO: that 15K cut of staff needs to grow to 4-6x to have any real impact on the wasteful overhead that company endures.

Everything will depend in reality on the future US administration, although in general on those who puppeteer both the "Democrats" and "Republicans" in reality. If they consider Intel "too big too fail" for geopolitical purposes, they will simply flood it with taxpayers' money, as they have cynically done more than once with the main large financial enterprises.

In the end, everything will be decided by the "deal" (or its impossibility) of the "deep" US power with TSMC or the ability of the Intel team to provide something similar in a qualified and economically advantageous manner on the territory of the US and other, still "safe" territories....

That is why TSMC is in no hurry to launch production in the US (apart from the obvious unfavorable long-term economic conditions, outside the context of China's seizure of Taiwan) - it is waiting for the formulation of some "rules" from the "deep" US government for the long term, most likely after November 2024, although in general the next circus with "elections" plays little role in this, which apparently have not yet been sufficiently outlined by them. Big business needs clear rules of the game observed by all players within the political bloc, in this case the "Western" one. And not a game of give-away in favor of some and to the detriment of others, which the aged founder of TSMC senses in his gut..

The moderator/s of this site is a cheap bastard/s who is simply taking revenge for the harsh truth of a person who is many times smarter than he is.

Deleting such truthful comments only proves his bastard nature, and since the management agrees with him in this, it means they are the same mentally.

I did not start this war - you did. You will have to clean it up.
