NEUTRAL IMPACT
Intel's increased short interest suggests bearish market sentiment, but with short interest below peer average, it may not significantly impact the stock price in the short term.
While the rise in short interest for Intel indicates a more bearish outlook from traders, the fact that it is below the peer group average suggests that the sentiment is not as negative as it could be. Additionally, short interest alone is not a definitive predictor of immediate stock price movement, and the relatively short average time to cover indicates that any potential price impact may be quickly resolved.
