Published on April 24, 2026.
Intel's shares have surged to a record high of $83, surpassing its dot-com era peak in 2000, and taking the company's market value above $416 billion. Demand for Intel's central processors from AI services was so high in Q1 that it sold even chips it had written off.

The company's shares are now valued at around 90 times its 12-month forward earnings estimates, higher than AMD and Nvidia.
