Key Facts
Intel’s stock closed up 10.3% at $40.56, nearly reaching its highest closing price in well over a year.
TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said in a statement Friday morning his latest industry surveys “indicate that visibility on Intel becoming an advanced-node supplier to Apple has recently improved significantly.”
Kuo said Apple plans to use Intel to ship its lowest-end M processor, Apple’s proprietary chip used in MacBook Airs and iPad Pros.
Kuo noted Intel will still trail behind chip competitor Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company in the coming years, but a deal with Apple and other “tier-one customers” could make Intel’s long-term outlook “more positive.”
