Intel Aggressively Pursues AI Market Share with Pricing, Restructuring
Updated June 21, 2025
intel Corp.’s stock (NASDAQ:) has demonstrated renewed vigor, climbing to an intraday high of $21.58 on June 18 before settling at $21.49, a daily increase exceeding 3%. This positive movement contrasts with the previous week’s volatility, suggesting growing market confidence in the company’s direction.
Fueling this optimism are recent strategic announcements and favorable media coverage, indicating a more assertive phase in Intel’s turnaround strategy under CEO Lip-Bu Tan. These actions signal a shift from planning to execution, providing investors with tangible evidence to assess Intel’s progress in the artificial intelligence (AI) market.
The company is making a bold move in the AI arena with its Gaudi 3 AI accelerator kit,featuring eight accelerators priced around $125,000. This aggressive pricing strategy positions the Gaudi 3 as a disruptive force,perhaps costing less than half of comparable systems from NVIDIA (NASDAQ:),aiming to capitalize on the data center AI boom.
This pricing strategy could drive revenue growth in intel’s Data Center and AI (DCAI) segment. By offering a cost-effective alternative, Intel aims to attract large enterprises and cloud customers seeking to diversify their hardware suppliers. While NVIDIA’s CUDA software presents a challenge, Intel’s pricing provides a compelling reason for customers to explore other options.
Beyond product strategy, Intel is undergoing a comprehensive restructuring to enhance innovation and efficiency. This includes streamlining its business portfolio,with discussions underway to sell its Networking and Edge (NEX) business unit for a potential $10 billion to $12 billion.
Simultaneously, Intel is revamping its talent pool, hiring senior engineering leaders from companies like Apple (NASDAQ:) and Google (NASDAQ:) on June 18. This investment in top-tier talent coincides with reported plans to reduce its factory workforce by up to 20%. This dual approach signals a commitment to optimizing the company for future growth by investing in innovation while managing costs.
What’s next
These strategic moves on pricing, talent, and portfolio management offer concrete evidence of execution, potentially reducing the perceived risk associated with Intel’s turnaround. The recent stock strength reflects a market response as investors factor in a higher probability of success based on these coordinated actions.
