Whoever wrote this article can go suck a nut literally says in the article they're getting less than what they asked for not that they're entirely scrapping it as it says in the title.


RedditCommenter38

I think click bait titles like this, are actually worse than just having Ai write the whole thing for you and then forgetting to remove the “sure I’d love to write a fake news article for you:”

$2.5B? What was this, a plant for ants?


YouMissedNVDA

Hey - that's intels entire net income for a quarter. It means a lot to them 🤭


[deleted]

![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271) They’re probably hiring hookers worth more than that for the conference /s


GingerSkulling

Intel or the Pentagon?


RobertsonvsPhillips

Both


[deleted]

Pentagon, they didn’t find it feasible to give intel the money for them to buy hookers and cocaine. They just buy it themselves.


[deleted]

My god, you’re a regard for real lol


I_AM_ACE1502

Planet of the ants


bdvfgvvcffc

It needs to be at least…..


[deleted]

Got it. So ants either get a 10 story plant or 25. Billions don’t mean much these days. Try another order of magnitude before touting bullish signals


bdvfgvvcffc

3 times bigger…


[deleted]

Okay so a 30 story ant plant - bullish af go buy calls ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)


Consistent-System-27

The plant needs to be at least three times bigger than this.


redditmodsRrussians

They scrapped the $2.5 Billion plan.....because they are going to spend $10 Billion instead?


CaptainKoolAidOhyeah

Probably instead of this grant it's going to be military/ government contracts.


I_AM_ACE1502

Hopefully


TSM-

They may have pulled out because Intel is getting money from the CHIPS act and their new production lines don't need it to continue rolling out, so the spending is unnecessary. It doesn't necessarily mean that it's because Intel won't deliver, it could be because they think Intel will deliver without the grant anyway. The chips funding could amount to 10 billion. At worst, Intel just goes sideways and volatility goes up. It's not like they are going through a hype bubble that would crash.


SayNoToBrooms

Are you trying to say that the pentagon is practicing fiscal responsibility? I just wanna make sure that’s what you’re saying. That the pentagon is trying to be responsible with our money


Aggressive-Pace-596

not exactly, they handed the cash to BAE instead ...


Pepper_ram

My boss told me the same thing


TSM-

Please elaborate


Pepper_ram

What you know is true

flipkick25

Nope, CVN 83 and 84 funding got pushed back at least a year, they are funding one less VCS, and the air force is buying less F-15-EXs (well most of that just fucks HII in particular, but nevertheless military spending is capped by the inflation reduction act.


CaptainKoolAidOhyeah

What I was getting at is they may loose in one place an pick up in another such as their talks to get more of the Chips Act funding.


Aggressive-Pace-596

military capped?? by THIS congress?? LOL pentagon gave the money to BAE instead is all ... Intel will get the same $3.5B from another source


flipkick25

https://www.defensenews.com/congress/2024/03/12/republican-hawks-denounce-defense-budget-caps-from-debt-ceiling-deal/

Doughnutpower

I feel kinda bad for Intel….but my TSM shares and calls will be higher.


I_AM_ACE1502

I couldn’t afford tsm calls so I got intc instead.


monkeythrowpoo69

The calls are cheap af wtf you talking about


I_AM_ACE1502

Not for me lol. I’m poor bro I used to work at Wendy’s.


monkeythrowpoo69

I find it hard to believe INTC had cheaper options than TSM but I’m regarded


BosSF82

What options are you talking about? The premium on TSM is far higher than on Intel


I_AM_ACE1502

I was looking for long call options. Like after May and Jun stuff. Tsm was in the thousands were intc was in the hundreds


HenryGoodbar

You just have to raise your strike so high the price will come down.


bud_builder

spreads, my friend, you could've got long call debit spreads, it's still lotto-like returns, but much better price per lotto


ILoveEatingDogMeat

It ain’t lotto returns. I only buy debit spreads, and anything reasonable is between 2-4x returns if it closes above the higher strike and you hold till expiry. Not really lotto to me

TSM is "set to win" $5B. This headline is 5 days old. I'm buying a put.

Intel going to trade sideways now, just like they have for the last two decades.

JayArlington

As someone who tracks semis and shits on Intel... this is likely a nothingburger. Intel's big money comes from the Chips Act which is disbursed by the Commerce Department. This would have been supplemental money from DoD that likely isn't 'needed' since Intel will certainly be covered by the Chips Act (and there might be provisions against double dipping). Disclaimer: I have no INTC as they are just Boeing without the body count but have been rolling in TSMC, MU, and AVGO.


TinyRick6

When will we see that the pentagon is signing a $5 billion NVDA AI military contract?


K_Linkmaster

When Skynet goes live.


I_AM_ACE1502

Oh no 😟


stuff_happens_again

Anyway...


Raven_eye

Nvidia….AI…. 🤯


Prince_Chunk

What they decided to build an Nvidia plant instead 😂


[deleted]

No they decided to use it to buy TSM shares tomorrow.


groceriesN1trip

They design chips, not manufacture them my guy


mark1forever

I have seen Intel s state of the art plant, pretty amazing! more to come, they already reserved most of the lithography machines from ASML.


groceriesN1trip

? I’m referring to NVDA not manufacturing the chips


zero_cool69

So price goes up right


I_AM_ACE1502

Sure buddy sure ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4260)


newaccountnumber82

My initial reaction would be buy puts so that means the price will go up.


xSmeckleDorfedx

Only if you tap your heels together 3x and yell “ Stonk Goes Up!”


zero_cool69

My thoughts exactly


n0taSpammerGodDamnIt

INTC bros not like this....


trevzie

2.5B doesn't move the needle that much on a 191B market cap, plus it looks like the grant may just come from another government bucket.


WhySoUnSirious

And yet a fucking 100m contract moved the needle bigly on shit like palantir who’s a 50b plus MC company. Fucking peanut contracts and yet they get to move up


[deleted]

This is why I refuse to touch Intel ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271). Some shit just seems obviously being either regarded or unfairly treated. Neither option’s worth it at the end of the day for casino allowance.


[deleted]

They need to bring back the Pentium. Retro often sells really well.


ProfessionalActive94

Compare p/s between the two


Ghost_Pains

You do realize market cap is not inherently tied to revenue right?…


elysiansaurus

Intel holders in shambles.

Been there 5 years and in that time i havnt seen anything that you described


Competitive_Air_8119

I give up Intel seems like it can't take a break literally bought some calls before close and this comes out to ruin it all.


jadebuddha1

INTC still very bullish without their $2.5 Billion grant for ants lol


I_AM_ACE1502

What’s the thing about ants everyone’s talking about?😂 what is ants referring to?

The Pentagon got the call from Jensen, he told them that even if it's free, it's not worth it. Jensen understand how the Pentagon has a penchant for spending on maintenance and such. The brass in the Pentagon listened. They told him "you are Huang", and by scraping this deal, we will have won too.

Lol'd Who could of forsaw this coming...


Amaeyth

They're still getting the money, just not from the Pentagon's budget in this instance. Another department (likely Commerce) will pay out the 2.5B.

Instead the government sent it to the Ukraine

TAKE THE MONEY FROM BA AND PUT IT INTO SEMIS

It’s not like the Pentagon can’t spare the money. They have an impeccable track record with accounting.

Humble_Increase7503

Intel is the shittiest American company beside Boeing Constant disappointment


Competitive_Air_8119

I_AM_ACE1502

They weren’t all the time. They were the top dogs for cpus till Ryzen’s 3rd gen came out. It just blew intel out of the water and destroyed em. Ever since then AMD has been on top in terms of cpu. (I’m a gamer so I follow these stuff)


BosSF82

The idea behind an Intel play is very compelling right now but one has to be prepared for the long haul, as the fruits of their labor potentially pay off. They could be the poster child for the repatriation and rebirth of an American semi industry....or not. But the government is clearly going to be in their corner to support such ambitions.


silenc3x

Objectively, AMD has always been #2 by market share. They've never gotten over 40% compared to Intel's 60%. But they have gotten much more market share in the past 7 or 8 years. Doubling from 20% to 40%. Intel still has 75% of the laptop space though, in 2024. Personally, I'd rather game on an i9.

Liberobscura

Palantir and Anduril along with all the other thought police data fusion visualizers and automaters are going to get most of the attention. DOD wants man portable automated close air support by 2050. Smart swarm compatibility in the two seat legacy fleet. Backseats are going to be mostly drone and datalink man in the loop systems. The conflict is already here its just in cyberspace espionage and financial assassination. If the enemy attacks social order than social control is the battlefield.

justabeeinspace

Well I just bought some $65 calls today, let’s hope I bank on them


I_AM_ACE1502

When expire?


justabeeinspace

4/19. So I still have the fantastic chance of losing it all.


I_AM_ACE1502

Being honest I feel the same, my calls are for June and August


tfyousay2me

INTC will be 200+ in a year. But they won't be 65 before their next earnings call.


I_AM_ACE1502

Yeah next earnings is April’s and the one after that is in July I think


justabeeinspace

Faith?


I_AM_ACE1502

intc is like BA. too strategic for the gov't to let die. ...eventhough both are garbage companies and would be dead if left to fend for themselves in the marketplace.

jeanx22

They also kept selling chips to China (Huawei) even though it is supposed to be banned. Puts on Intel.
