Intel Shares Drop Over 20% After Mixed Earnings and Weaker Q4 Outlook
Intel's stock fell over 20% in after-hours trading following a mixed third-quarter earnings report and a weaker-than-expected fourth-quarter forecast. Despite 21% revenue growth driven by data center and AI segments, the company cited ongoing PC market weakness and a factory explosion in Israel that disrupted production and reduced revenue by an estimated $600 million over two quarters. Intel's cautious outlook and manufacturing challenges raised investor concerns about the pace of its turnaround and future growth prospects.
