Reports indicate that the US government's shareholding agreement with Intel is comprehensive. On August 22, Eastern Time, the US government injected $8.9 billion into Intel, acquiring a 9.9% stake. Furthermore, the US government is actively supporting Intel in its domestic production of advanced chips. This support extends to reaching out to potential major customers to bolster Intel's foundry business. The agreement also encompasses the US government's proactive engagement with partners to ensure that Intel's cutting-edge process technologies, such as Intel 18A, can be manufactured within the United States. These measures are designed to enhance domestic capabilities in advanced processes and packaging, mitigate supply chain risks, and assert technological and industrial leadership in geopolitical competitions.
