intel spends 16 bilion a year in r&d nvidia spends little over 8 bilion a year in r&d amd spends a little over 1 bilion a year in r&d… yep…

intel also spends capx on foundry build out and is still highly profitable…
intel has a 4b float, and if they cut their r&d to match nvidia , would post an extra two dolars eps to the bottom line per year, bringing their pe ratio to around 10.
if they r&d to match amd, they would put about an extra 4 dolars eps per year on the bottom line…
intel is majorly misunderstood…
actualy, it is very profitable with very strong cash flow…
intc worth far more than AMD…
when the foundry(s) build out is complete , capx will slow down, and eps will increase considerably….. wait and see…
p.s who all knows apollo just invested 11 bilion with intel to get a 49% interest in their ireland fab facility?
i'll wager you here and now we will hear of news whereby nvidia in some form or another develops a relationship with intel… (nvidia can not rely on taiwan for much longer without some consequences)
that could come in the form of a minority ownership in one fab facility such as apollo just completed or simply onshoring chip manufacturing with intel…
either way, it's destined to happen it's news like this that says you want to be in this horse race with intel…
