~ SoftBank is buying roughly 2% of Intel’s outstanding shares in a $2 billion investment in the chipmaker.
~ Intel shares lost 60% of their value last year as the company failed to gain traction in the artificial intelligence market that’s dominated by Nvidia.

IMO, this cash investment is exactly what Intel urgently needs and is a step in the right direction. Intel must improve its financial position as soon as possible before it gets out of control.
