Intel Unusual Options Activity

Huawei Technologies Co. is reportedly set to release its most advanced domestically made chip in the Mate 70 series, amid ongoing U.S. sanctions.
What Happened: The new chip will power select models in Huawei's Mate 70 lineup, which is expected to launch next week, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/huaweis-chip-advances-threaten-apple-in-china-165a1e9e?mod=tech_lead_story">reported</a> the Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the matter.
The launch comes as Huawei continues to increase its market share in China, where it has seen a rise in consumer demand.
In the third quarter of this year, Huawei's market share in China grew to 15.3% from 8.6% last year, positioning it as a significant competitor to Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) in the high-end smartphone market.

The new chips, produced by Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation or SMIC, leverage advanced technologies to improve performance and power efficiency, allowing Huawei to compete more effectively with Apple's offerings.
&#8220;The Mate 70 will continue to put more pressure on Apple in China,&#8221; said IDC vice president Bryan Ma, according to the report.
Although Huawei's chips still lag behind Apple's in terms of power efficiency, he noted that the difference may not be significant as long as users can get through the day without worrying about charging, the report noted.

Why It Matters: This development coincides with an earlier report that suggested Huawei plans to begin <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42105518/huawei-to-reportedly-take-on-nvidia-with-mass-production-of-new-ai-chips-by-2025-amid-us-restrictions">mass production of its new AI chip</a>, the Ascend 910C, in early 2025, despite facing major challenges from U.S. trade restrictions.
In May earlier this year, the Joe Biden administration <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/05/38682654/biden-administration-tightens-grip-on-chinas-huawei-revokes-key-export-licenses-from-us-chipmakers">canceled export licenses</a> for leading U.S. semiconductor companies such as Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) and Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>), blocking them from providing essential chips to Huawei.
During the same month, a report from Counterpoint Research suggested that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/39107001/after-apple-huawei-takes-on-samsung-in-race-to-become-worlds-top-foldable-phone-maker-report">Huawei surpassed</a> Samsung Electronics Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) in global foldable smartphone shipments for the first quarter of 2024.
Last month, U.S. lawmakers called on the Department of Commerce to take stronger measures against Huawei&#8217;s reported efforts to evade sanctions by using a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/10/41368844/us-lawmakers-demand-tougher-action-on-huaweis-secretive-chip-network">covert network of semiconductor facilities</a>.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Apple shares increased by 0.02% to $228.56 in after-hours trading, following a 0.21% decline to $228.52 during Thursday's regular session, according to <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

US Futures Head Lower As Nvidia Earnings Fail To Impress Investors: Expert Says Market Weakness Is 'Perfectly Normal,' But Late November Rally Is Still Possible

Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.&nbsp;is set to initiate mass production of its latest AI chip, the Ascend 910C, in early 2025, despite facing significant hurdles due to U.S. trade restrictions.
What Happened: The Chinese telecom giant has already distributed&nbsp;samples of the Ascend 910C&nbsp;to various tech firms and begun accepting orders. The chip is designed to rival those from U.S. AI chipmaker&nbsp;Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>). Huawei remains a focal point in U.S.-China trade and security tensions, with Washington imposing restrictions over national security concerns, Reuters reported on Wednesday.
These U.S. curbs have impacted Huawei&#8217;s chip production, limiting its ability to achieve high yields necessary for commercial success. The Ascend 910C is produced by&nbsp;Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) using its N+2 process. However, the absence of advanced lithography tools has restricted the chip&#8217;s yield to about 20%, a source revealed.
See Also:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42023396/sean-parkers-net-worth-touches-3b-from-launching-napster-to-becoming-facebook-billionaire-the-story-of-teenage-hacker-turned-entrepreneur?itm_source=parsely-api" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sean Parker&#8217;s Net Worth Touches $3B: From Launching Napster To Becoming Facebook Billionaire, The Story Of Teenage Hacker Turned Entrepreneur</a>
Huawei&#8217;s current advanced processor, the 910B, also suffers from yield issues, leading to reduced production goals. U.S. restrictions have further complicated the situation by restricting access to critical lithography technology from Dutch manufacturer ASML. Despite these obstacles, Huawei plans to prioritize strategic government and corporate orders for its new chip.
Why It Matters: The U.S. has been tightening its grip on Huawei. In May, the Biden administration <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/05/38682654/biden-administration-tightens-grip-on-chinas-huawei-revokes-key-export-licenses-from-us-chipmakers">revoked export licenses </a>for major American semiconductor firms like Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) and Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>), preventing them from supplying crucial chips to Huawei. This marked a significant escalation in the U.S. strategy to curb Huawei&#8217;s technological rise.
In October, U.S. lawmakers urged the Department of Commerce to take tougher action against <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/10/41368844/us-lawmakers-demand-tougher-action-on-huaweis-secretive-chip-network">Huawei&#8217;s alleged attempts </a>to bypass sanctions through a secretive network of semiconductor facilities. This included leveraging companies like Pengxinxu and SwaySure Technology.
Most recently, in November, the U.S. reportedly asked Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) to halt shipments of advanced chips used in AI applications to Chinese customers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41867470/us-asks-tsmc-to-stop-shipment-of-chips-used-in-ai-applications-to-customers-from-china-after-its-chip-was-found-in-huawei-ai-processor">after discovering one</a> of its chips in a Huawei AI processor.

As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to return to the White House, renowned economist Mohamed El-Erian is cautioning against media oversimplification of the incoming administration&#8217;s proposed tariff strategies.
What Happened: In a recent statement on X, El-Erian highlighted the intricate nature of Trump&#8217;s tariff discussions, noting that the proposed economic policies encompass at least three complex economic stages influenced by multiple factors, including trade flows, corporate pricing strategies, and geopolitical considerations.
El-Erian&#8217;s core message remains clear: Trump&#8217;s tariff debate requires sophisticated, nuanced analysis that transcends simplistic narratives. &#8220;The issue is quite complex,&#8221; he emphasized, underscoring the need for comprehensive economic understanding beyond headline rhetoric.

Trump&#8217;s proposed economic blueprint, which includes a universal tariff of up to 20% on imports and potentially up to 60% on Chinese goods, has sparked intense economic debate. Tech investor Peter Thiel suggests these tariffs could significantly impact Chinese companies while causing minimal <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/11/42028954/peter-thiel-says-trumps-60-china-tariff-would-be-very-very-bad-for-beijing-heres-whats-at-stake">disruption to U.S. consumers</a>.

Why It Matters: Goldman Sachs economist David Mericle warns that Trump&#8217;s proposed universal tariff could push <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/42042411/inflation-could-surge-to-3-if-trump-applies-universal-tariffs-goldman-sachs">inflation back to 3%</a>, potentially complicating Federal Reserve monetary strategies. 
The National Retail Federation estimates Trump&#8217;s tariff proposals could reduce annual consumer <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41737933/trump-tariff-proposed-may-cost-americans-78b-in-spending-study">spending by $78 billion</a>.
Prominent business leaders have voiced concerns.

"Tariffs would create a headwind to the performance of stocks with high international revenue exposure due to the risk of retaliatory tariffs and heightened geopolitical tensions," Goldman Sachs analyst David Kostin stated.
Goldman Sachs noted that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/06/39467825/us-election-and-tariff-prospects-set-to-threaten-internationally-exposed-stocks-gol">U.S. stocks with domestic sales focus outperformed</a> those with international exposure by 1 percentage point the day after Trump's election and by 4 pp in the following month but underperformed by 9 pp in the next 12 months.

10 Information Technology Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) has secured up to $6.6 billion in subsidies from the U.S. Department of Commerce under the CHIPS Incentives Program.
The funding is contingent upon the contract chipmaker&#8217;s commitment to producing semiconductors using its cutting-edge A16 process technology at its Arizona facilities, the Taipei Times <a target="_blank" href="https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/front/archives/2024/11/19/2003827127" rel="noreferrer noopener">cites</a> the department.
Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s Chair, C.C. Wei, told the Taipei Times that the agreement with the U.S. would accelerate the development of the company&#8217;s most advanced semiconductor manufacturing capabilities within the country.

Taiwan Semiconductor is constructing two advanced semiconductor fabs in Arizona. The first will likely start mass production of 4nm chips in early 2024, while the second will produce 3nm and 2nm chips by 2028.
The company also announced plans to establish a third fab in the state by 2030, using its A16 technology or a more advanced process, increasing its total investment in Arizona to over $65 billion.
Previously, Taiwan Semiconductor announced that its &#8220;A16&#8221; chip manufacturing technology will likely begin production in the latter half of 2026.
The advanced <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38429949/taiwan-semi-sets-2026-launch-for-a16-chip-technology-aiming-to-outpace-intel-in-speed" rel="noreferrer noopener">1.6-nm chipmaking technology</a> will likely bolster Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s competitive position against Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>).
The A16 process builds on Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s 2nm technology and utilizes an innovative &#8220;super power rail&#8221; for enhanced logic density and performance.
According to the report, this next-generation nanosheet-based technology is tailored for high-performance computing and artificial intelligence applications. Analysts predict growing demand for A16 chips as the AI boom continues.
In addition to direct funding, the U.S. government has proposed up to $5 billion in loans to support Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s Arizona expansion. These funds are part of the $75 billion authorized under the CHIPS and Science Act.
Prior reports indicated Taiwan Semiconductor is producing Apple Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) A16 system-on-chip (SoC) at Phase 1 of its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40920976/taiwan-semiconductor-begins-production-of-apple-a16-smartphone-chips-at-arizona-facility-report" rel="noreferrer noopener">Fab 21 facility in Arizona</a>.
The A16 chip, built using Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s 5nm N4 process, was first introduced with the iPhone 14 Pro in 2022.
In 2024, Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s board approved a new investment of up to $7.5 billion to expand operations at its Arizona facility. According to Tim Culpan, Taiwan Semiconductor plans to scale up production volumes after completing the second stage of the Phase 1 fab.
Taiwan Semiconductor stock surged 85% year-to-date.
Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41388050/apples-3nm-push-boosts-taiwan-semis-q3-ai-revenue-set-to-triple-analyst" rel="noreferrer noopener">third-quarter results</a> highlighted robust 3nm performance, fueled primarily by Apple, while 5nm showed steady leveling, Needham analyst Charles Shi said.
It reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41388050/apples-3nm-push-boosts-taiwan-semis-q3-ai-revenue-set-to-triple-analyst" rel="noreferrer noopener">third-quarter revenue</a> of $23.50 billion, up 39%, beating the $22.4 billion-$23.2 billion guidance and the consensus estimate.
The analyst praised Taiwan Semiconductor&#8217;s gross margin improvement to 57.8%, overcoming earlier cost concerns linked to 3nm and electricity increases.
The contract chipmaker expects AI revenue to triple in 2024, hitting $13 billion, and projects AI to comprise 20% of total revenue by 2028. It anticipates a 2024 CapEx of $30 billion, with fourth-quarter spending likely surging to $12 billion, partly for the initial 2nm buildout.
Price Action: TSM stock closed higher by 1.24% at $189.80 premarket at the last check on Tuesday.

The European Commission has penalized a $841 million (797.72 million euros) fine to Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) for <a target="_blank" href="https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/ip_24_5801" rel="noreferrer noopener">violating EU antitrust laws</a>.
The penalty follows an investigation into Meta's conduct, which found that the company abused its dominant market position by linking its classified ads service, Facebook Marketplace, with its primary social media network, Facebook.
The practice forced users into automatic access to Facebook Marketplace, limiting competition by providing the service with an unfair advantage.

The Commission also identified that Meta imposed unfair trading conditions on competing online classified ad providers, leveraging data from Facebook and Instagram ads to benefit its Marketplace service.
The Commission concluded that Meta's actions breached Article 102 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU), prohibiting the abuse of a dominant market position.
The fine was determined based on the duration and gravity of the violations and the revenue generated by Facebook Marketplace. Meta must cease these practices immediately and avoid similar conduct in the future.
The investigation into Meta's business practices began in June 2021, with formal proceedings initiated by the European Commission. In December 2022, the Commission issued a Statement of Objections, to which Meta responded in June 2023.
Margrethe Vestager, Executive Vice President for Competition Policy, stated that Meta integrated Facebook Marketplace with its leading social media platform, Facebook, and set unfair trading conditions for rival online classified ad providers.
Vestager noted that these actions unfairly benefited Facebook Marketplace by giving it a significant advantage over competitors, which violates EU antitrust regulations. Meta is now required to halt these practices immediately.
Meta, in its response, said that they would <a target="_blank" href="https://about.fb.com/news/2024/11/our-response-to-the-european-commissions-decision-on-facebook-marketplace/" rel="noreferrer noopener">appeal the decision</a>. The company said they built the marketplace in response to consumer demand and that the European Commission's decision provides no evidence of competitive harm to rivals or any harm to consumers.&nbsp;
The U.S. Big Tech giants, including Meta Platforms, Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Google parent Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), and Amazon.Com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), faced scrutiny and penalties from global antitrust regulators for allegedly crushing smaller players by exploiting their undue influence.
In October, Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) won an EU court ruling, intercepting a 1.06 billion euros fine in a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/10/41522973/intel-triumphs-in-15-year-legal-battle-eu-court-rejects-record-antitrust-penalty" rel="noreferrer noopener">long-standing antitrust</a> case over chip market dominance.
In September, Google&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/09/40915828/google-wins-1-7b-eu-antitrust-fine-appeal-over-5-year-old-online-search-advertising-case" rel="noreferrer noopener">won its appeal</a> against the European Commission's 1.49 billion euros ($1.66 billion) antitrust fine for anticompetitive practices involving its online search advertising business.
Presidential elect Donald Trump <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41395202/tim-cook-called-to-complain-about-billions-in-eu-fines-imposed-on-apple-says-trump-im-not-going-to-l" rel="noreferrer noopener">discussed antitrust fines</a> imposed on U.S. tech giants during his campaigns. He mentioned a conversation with Apple CEO Tim Cook, where Cook highlighted the financial impact of recent EU penalties on Apple.
According to Trump, Cook expressed concern over EU fines totaling $17 billion, including a $15 billion back tax payment and an additional $2 billion antitrust fine.
Trump assured Cook that if elected, he would not allow foreign regulators to exploit American companies, signaling his intent to oppose EU actions targeting U.S. tech firms.
Price Action: META stock is down 0.74% at $575.70 at the last check on Thursday.

Meta Hit With $841 Million EU Fine Over Antitrust Violations Tied To Facebook Marketplace

Advanced Micro Devices&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) has reportedly decided to lay off approximately 1,000 employees, representing 4% of its global workforce.
What Happened: AMD is realigning its resources to compete with Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) in the data center chip market, reported Reuters.
&#8220;As a part of aligning&nbsp;our resources with our largest&nbsp;growth opportunities, we are taking&nbsp;a number of targeted steps,&#8221;&nbsp;an AMD spokesperson told the publication.
The company has been aggressively investing in the development of AI chips, which command high&nbsp;prices and are in demand among hyperscalers like Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>).

The company&#8217;s data center segment, which includes its AI graphics processors, witnessed a more than two-fold increase in revenue in the September quarter.
Analysts forecast that the data center unit will&nbsp;grow 98% in 2024, outpacing&nbsp;the&nbsp;expected total revenue growth of&nbsp;13%. 
AMD plans to start mass production of its MI325X AI chip in fourth-quarter of 2024, although ramping up production is costly due to limited manufacturing capacity
Why It Matters: Last month, AMD reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41612007/amd-q3-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-in-line-data-center-up-122-significant-growth-opportunities-ahead-">third-quarter revenue of $6.8 billion</a>, surpassing analyst expectations of $6.71 billion. The chipmaker also reported earnings of 92 cents per share, matching analysts&#8217; forecasts, according to&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Prior to the earnings, analysts highlighted concerns about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41339315/nvidia-and-intel-competition-threaten-amds-growth-analyst-says">AMD&#8217;s ability to maintain</a> a profitable business model in the face of stiff competition from Nvidia and Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>).
Earlier this month, AMD&#8217;s stock saw a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41848544/whats-going-on-with-amd-stock-this-week">5% increase in the week following</a> the 2024 U.S. presidential election.
Price Action: AMD shares closed Wednesday&#8217;s session down by 3.01%, finishing at $139.30. However, in after-hours trading, the stock saw a slight uptick, rising to $139.41 as of the latest update.

HPE Launches Advanced Liquid-Cooled Supercomputing Solutions With Two New AI Systems For Service Providers And Enterprises, Featuring AMD, Intel, And NVIDIA Accelerators To Enhance AI Training And Supercomputing Capabilities

Tower Semiconductor Ltd&nbsp;(NASDAQ: TSEM)&nbsp;reported a fiscal third-quarter 2024 revenue growth of 3.4% year-on-year to $370.51 million, marginally beating the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/g41934829/tower-semiconductor-reports-2024-third-quarter-financial-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst consensus estimate of $370.33 million</a>.
The Israel-based contract chipmaker&#8217;s adjusted EPS of $0.57 beat the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst consensus estimate of $0.53</a>. The stock price gained after the print.
Gross profit was $93.06 million, up 7.1% Y/Y.&nbsp;The margin improved by 86 bps to 25.1%. Operating profit of $55.76 million declined 84.6%&nbsp;Y/Y as last year&#8217;s profit included an Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) merger contract termination fee of $314 million.
As of September end, the company generated $125 million in operating cash flow and held $1.21 billion in cash and equivalents.
The company has initiated a $350 million investment plan to boost capacity and enhance SiPho (Silicon Photonics) and SiGe (Silicon Germanium) capabilities.
This expansion involves ramping up and qualifying for a 200mm capacity at its San Antonio and Migdal Haemek sites and its 300mm facility in Uozu to meet increasing customer demand in high-growth markets.
Tower Semiconductor&#8217;s CEO, Russell Ellwanger, accentuated the company&#8217;s consistent quarter-over-quarter revenue growth, including the outlook for Q4.
He attributed this to strong double-digit year-over-year gains across key technology platforms like advanced 300mm RF SOI, 65nm Power BCD, and next-generation Silicon Photonics and Silicon Germanium technologies.
Ellwanger also mentioned the rising demand for SiGe and SiPho, prompting investments in multiple factories to expand capacity. This strategic move aims to maintain Tower&#8217;s leadership in providing essential components for AI-driven data center markets, particularly optical transceivers.
Outlook: Tower Semiconductor expects fourth-quarter revenue of $387 million, with a 5% upward or downward range versus the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">$379.23 million consensus</a>.
Tower Semiconductor stock surged over 42% year-to-date.

The analysts highlighted that Japanese company Renesas and German firm Infineon have stepped in, receiving rush orders, potentially replacing Monolithic in Nvidia&#8217;s B200 and GB200 SKUs.
Edgewater expressed concern that supply chain partners perceived Monolithic&#8217;s temporary solution as a stopgap measure rather than a complete fix.
Investors can gain exposure to semiconductor stocks through VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>) and iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>).
Price Action: At the last check on Monday, NVDA stock was trading lower by 1.67% to $145.19, INTC was down 4.16%, and ARM was down 4.07%.

Why Are Chip Stocks Trading Lower On Monday?

As the euphoria pertaining to artificial intelligence has increased in recent years, the 128-year-old Dow Jones Industrial Average index replaced the shares of Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) with Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) in its index. 
The shares of Santa Clara, California-based company, Nvidia Corp have jumped nearly 204% in the past year, whereas Intel Corp (INTC) shares have plummeted nearly 32% in the same period. 
What Happened: Nvidia Corp has emerged as the biggest winner in Wall Street's AI-fueled rally. By Friday's market close, Nvidia's market cap reached $3.62 trillion, surpassing Apple Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) valuation of $3.431 trillion, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/11/41761849/nvidia-blows-past-apple-to-become-worlds-most-valuable-company">marking a significant milestone for the chipmaker</a> as it races ahead amid surging demand for AI technologies.

"Nvidia is a well-run company and joining the Dow demonstrates just how powerful its rally has been in recent years after it was at the right place at the right time when no one else was," said Scott Colyer, chief executive at Advisors Asset Management, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-01/nvidia-set-to-replace-intel-in-the-dow-jones-industrial-average">according</a> to Bloomberg.
Some analysts also believe that Intel Corp's business, which was added to Dow in 1999, has been under pressure. The company has budgeted spending, cut jobs and stopped investor payouts. "Intel has lagged in a huge way," Adam Sarhan, founder of 50 Park Investments told Bloomberg. 
"Now, the Dow is evolving. You don't want to see stocks that were there 30 years ago. You want to see what's the strongest that survive today."
Why It Matters: The Dow Jones Industrial Average is a price-weighted index based on 30 U.S. stocks, which first started as an index of 12 industrial stocks. The index has been subject to criticism for its limited scope, particularly its underrepresentation of technology stocks, a sector that has exhibited substantial growth in recent times.
One disadvantage of a price-weighted index is that a given percentage change in the price of a higher-priced stock has a greater impact on the index's value than does an equal percentage change in the price of a lower-priced stock. Put another way, higher-priced stocks have more weight in the calculation of a price-weighted index.
Dow's price-weighted methodology is troublesome for technology companies that abstain from splits and have shares trading above $1,000. Nvidia has split its stock two times in the past four years, the most recent of which was a 10-for-1 swap that took effect in June, which has made it easier for Dow to include the shares in its gauge.
A few analysts are still weary of Nvidia's rally and believe that the chipmaker lacks a predictable earnings stream. Popularly, dubbed as the Warren Buffet of the U.K., Terry Smith, the founder and chief executive officer of Fundsmith Equity has said in a Nov. 5 interview in Tokyo that "I'm not confident that we know what the future of AI is because there are almost no applications people are paying for. Will they be willing to pay on a sufficient scale and a sufficient price to justify this? Because if not, the suppliers of the chips are going to have a problem," Smith added. 
The $32 billion (GBP 25 billion) Fundsmith Equity portfolio, <a href="https://www-benzinga-com.translate.goog/news/24/07/39695261/avoiding-nvidia-causes-fundsmith-equity-to-lag-behind-benchmark-in-first-half?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB&amp;_x_tr_hist=true">which prioritizes growth stocks</a>, holds stakes in major U.S. tech companies like Apple Inc, Meta Platforms, Inc., and Microsoft Corp. However, Smith opted out of investing in Nvidia, citing unpredictability in its future outlook.
Smith's Fundsmith Equity Fund underperformed this year, returning 9% in dollar terms compared to the MSCI World Index's nearly 20% gain. Smith attributed this to the concentration of performance in a few stocks and the increasing popularity of index funds.
Price Action: Charting back to five-year-old data, Nvidia Corp has surged nearly 2,792% and Intel Corp is down by approximately 55%. Nvidia Corp shares ended the trading day at $147.63 per share, whereas, Intel Corp was at $26.20 per share as of Friday&#8217;s close.

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) surged 30%, boosting Elon Musk's wealth, and smaller stocks outshined large caps, driven by potential trade advantages for U.S.-focused businesses.
