  • Trump Claims $30B Gain for U.S. from Intel Stock Move in 90 Days
    May 16, 2026, 8:33 PM EDT. Former President Donald Trump claimed the U.S. government made over $30 billion in 90 days from its stake in Intel (NASDAQ: INTC). The federal government owns about 9.9% of Intel, acquired via an $8.9 billion deal tied to CHIPS Act grants and national security programs. Intel's stock surged to approximately $115 per share, valuing the government's holding near $49.8 billion, an unrealized gain of roughly $40.9 billion. Intel's growth is fueled by a strong turnaround, U.S. manufacturing support, and expanding AI infrastructure demand, with Q1 2026 revenue rising 7% year-over-year to $13.6 billion, including a 22% increase in Data Center and AI revenue. The stock's rally highlights debates over government involvement in private enterprise but underscores potential returns from strategic federal investments.
