Intel's Shares Experience Uptick Today
In a significant move for the tech industry, Intel and Nvidia announced a partnership on Wednesday at 9 a.m. ET. The collaboration aims to develop AI infrastructure and personal computing products, with Nvidia investing $5 billion in Intel common stock for this partnership.
According to the joint statement, the partnership involves joint development of multiple generations of data center and PC products. The products will seamlessly connect Nvidia and Intel architectures using Nvidia NVLink. Intel will build x86 system-on-chips (SOCs) that integrate Nvidia RTX GPU chiplets.
However, the article does not provide any new facts about the products that will be developed as part of the partnership or the day's range or 52-week range for Intel's stock price. As of the time of writing, Intel's share price today stands at $30.58, while Nvidia's is up only 2%.
Interestingly, Intel's market cap is $143 billion, but the partnership does not seem to have had a significant impact on the company's stock market performance, which soared 22.81% through 9:55 a.m. ET on Thursday.
