  • Melius Research boosts Intel stock price target to $150 amid market volatility
    May 19, 2026, 4:11 PM EDT. Intel (INTC) shares have fallen 19.17% since their May 11 peak of $129.44, currently trading at $104.62. Despite recent positive news, including Intel's chip manufacturing deals with Apple and expanded partnerships with Google, semiconductor stocks faced pressure due to macro events such as President Trump's China visit without major chip agreements. Melius Research analyst Benjamin Reitzes raised Intel's price target sharply to $150 from $100, signaling a 43.37% upside and maintaining a buy rating. Reitzes, with a 62% success rate, sees strong long-term growth in AI and memory chip segments. However, this target stands out against a consensus average of $87.09 and limited buy recommendations, reflecting market skepticism and Bank of America's bearish stance.
