Intel CEO says it's "too late" for them to catch up with AI competition — reportedly claims Intel has fallen out of the "top 10 semiconductor companies" as the firm lays off thousands across the world

I’m not surprised they fell behind and in panic mode.
Intel had their hand out for silly CHIPS Act money.
Who wants to buy their crap ???
I bought AMZN, GOOG and QQQ somewhere near the bottom of the second April pullback. Well it didn't seem like the bottom at the time - was already way back up. But it looks really good now.
I think its people trying to get out of the dollar and into real assets - of which there are not too many that have pricing power anymore. Why do I think this - because GLD, SLV and BTC are up even more YTD, while DXY is down almost 10% which is huge.
Having said that I have enough expectation of a pullback that I bought a bit of SQQQ as a hedge.

Not only did they have the pandemic money in 2021 / 22 - they were also very close to the peak number of retirees. Due purely to demographics - I believe 2024 will end up being the peak ever retiree's. There just aren't enough people under 65 now to ever catch up. So everything retirement - whether RV's are condo's in Florida or whatever, is going to be loosing customer volume going forward.
Not gonna go easy you slackers
Just keep goosing the economy buying expensive vehicles and your welcome to stick around
Anyone into XRP?
This bitcoin is crazy.
Disappointed I missed it.

All these other coins make no sense to me. At least Bitcoin has some transparency and is scarce.
When you can make a meme coin out of thin air your really just trading Tulip bulbs that won't grow. IMHO. But again, what do I know.
How about Fartcoin? Yes its a real coin - before you all hit "report" https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/fartcoin/
Keep eating. You are already rich so you may as well be fat too.
Those are the kind of coins you pick up when you bend over
Technically different, equally worthless.

That’s pretty bad/sad, but I’m not sure that their stuff is THAT bad. GPU/FPGA/AI oriented stuff, sure. And there’s a boom there. But it’s but one market.
I’d be more concerned about their falling behind in traditional pipeline. Let the AI bubble/boom go, make strategic partnerships, and sell your core area.
It’s sad…
Short US dollar is reported to be the most crowded trade currently, first time ever.
I think there late to the party actually.
