Intel stock pops after KeyBanc upgrade, $60 target as AI server demand tightens
Intel shares jumped 6.4% to $46.88 Tuesday after KeyBanc upgraded the stock to “overweight” and raised its price target to $60, citing strong server demand and progress in manufacturing. AMD rose 5.7%, while Nvidia slipped 0.2%. Susquehanna raised its Intel target to $40 but warned of PC and data center headwinds.
