After years of decline, Intel (INTC) has certainly staged a dramatic comeback. Under the leadership of CEO Lip-Bu Tan, investor confidence has steadily returned, fueled by meaningful investments to revive the company's foundry business, sweeping restructuring initiatives, early customer wins for its next-generation server processors, and strong government backing.
Together, these efforts have helped restore faith in a stock that had been steadily losing ground to the semiconductor industry's biggest players. Now, after delivering triple-digit gains so far in 2026, one Wall Street analyst believes Intel's rally may be far from over.
