US Government to Invest in Intel: Reshaping Semiconductor Landscape

A seismic shift in the technology sector is underway as the U.S. government mulls a significant investment in semiconductor giant Intel. This move, reportedly brewing since late August 2025, signals a strategic pivot that could reshape both domestic manufacturing and geopolitical competition. The potential stake comes amidst growing concerns over supply chain vulnerabilities exposed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Bloomberg reports this development stems from an existing push to bolster U.S. domestic manufacturing of semiconductors through initiatives like the CHIPS and Science Act. ]
