Intel warns U.S. stake could spark investor, global backlash

Intel has cautioned that the U.S. government’s plan to acquire a 10% stake could unsettle shareholders and strain global partnerships. In an SEC filing, the chipmaker flagged risks ranging from litigation to heightened political scrutiny, especially amid shifting trade policies. With 76% of its $53.1 billion revenue tied to overseas markets, Intel warned that sudden geopolitical changes could magnify uncertainty for a company already under heavy competitive pressure.
