Intel leads chip stocks higher as investors jump back into AI trade
Intel shares surged 5% and the semiconductor index SOX rose 2% as investors returned to AI-related stocks following a period of heavy selling. This rebound is driven by upgrades to Intel from JPMorgan and CoreWeave from Goldman Sachs. While the broader tech sector and US futures climbed, the Nasdaq rebound remains under pressure due to CoreWeave debt concerns and the start of a heavy earnings week. This recovery follows a punishing sell-off that had previously bruised US technology stocks and chipmakers.
