Overview
Intel designs and manufactures the x86 CPUs that have powered PCs and servers for decades. Unlike fabless rivals, it both designs and builds its own chips, an integrated model that is now both an asset and a heavy cost burden.
The central story is a turnaround: regaining process-technology leadership, building a foundry business to make chips for others, and catching up in AI accelerators. Whether the heavy capital spending pays off is the key debate.

| Warren Buffett | Durable moat | Is the x86 moat still durable, or eroding to ARM and rivals? |
| Seth Klarman | Asset value vs. price | What is the foundry and IP worth if earnings stay depressed? |
