The company's net profit for the third quarter of this year, released by the U.S. chip giant Intel, revealed that the company's net profit turned to profit, ending the loss period for six consecutive quarters, after the U.S. stock market, the price of the Intel stock rose by about 7.7%. So far this year, the price of the Intel stock has risen by more than 90%. Experts have noted that Intel's performance warms up or is related to the improvement of the overall market environment. And experts also remind that in the recent financial quarter, the US stock volatility has increased significantly.

This is the first quarterly report released by Intel after U.S. government investment. The results showed that revenue was better than market expectations and net profit reached $4.1 billion, reversing net loss of $16.6 billion in the same period last year. This report also marks the end of Intel's longest-running loss record in 35 years, with the company previously losing for six consecutive quarters.

In the after-night deal, Intel¡¯s share price rose by about 7.7 percent. So far this year, Intel¡¯s share price has risen more than 90 percent. But the rise almost all came after August, when the U.S. government announced that it would turn the $9 billion federal allocation into holding about 10% of Intel¡¯s shares. Since then, in September, chip giant NVIDIA said it would invest $5 billion in Intel, and Intel¡¯s share price rose again.

Investors are now closely watching Intel¡¯s workplace business, which produces chips not only for Intel itself but for other companies. The sector is expected to require a capital investment of about $100 billion, but has not yet picked up heavy customers. Intel¡¯s CEO also said his primary task is to improve Intel¡¯s product line, cut costs, and attract more customers for the company¡¯s workplace business.

According to experts from the macro perspective, Intel¡¯s earnings report is not because of its competitiveness, but because of the big environment of artificial intelligence boom. Although Intel¡¯s CPU chip, that is, the central processor, is not the core of AI training, the AI boom has driven the overall expansion of the data center. Graphic processors, that is, the computing cluster of GPUs still need CPU server coordination and support, so led to the rise of traditional server demand synchronization.

In addition, experts have warned that investors need to pay attention to the recent volatility of individual U.S. stocks. A familiar indicator for measuring overall market volatility is the VIX index. But the Chicago Options Exchange also has an indicator that tracks only stock volatility, called the VIX EQ index. Comparing the gap between VIX and VIX EQ, you can see the market¡¯s extra volatility premium counted in the price of individual stocks. Recently, this gap has reached a historic high, reflecting the market¡¯s tension on some of the tech stocks.

More U.S. tech giants are about to release their earnings reports next week, with companies facing profitability testing as investor concerns about market concentration and the AI tide heat up.
