Intel Eyes Q2 Revenue Below Guidance Midpoint, Hit By US Ban On Huawei: Details
Portfolio Pulse from Shivani Kumaresan
Intel Corp (NASDAQ:INTC) anticipates Q2 2024 revenue to be below the midpoint of its $12.5 billion to $13.5 billion guidance, affected by the U.S. ban on exports to Huawei. This follows the U.S. Department of Commerce revoking licenses for consumer-related exports to China, impacting both Intel and Qualcomm Inc (NASDAQ:QCOM). Despite this, Intel expects year-over-year growth in 2024 revenue and EPS. The ban, part of broader U.S. efforts to limit China's access to semiconductor technology, also affects other chipmakers like AMD (NASDAQ:AMD) and Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:NVDA). Intel's stock, along with others, has declined, with INTC down over 3% in the last 12 months. Investors can access Intel stock through ETFs like First Trust Nasdaq Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:FTXL) and Strive U.S. Semiconductor ETF (NYSE:SHOC).
