The Trump administration is looking to acquire a 10% stake in Intel by converting $10.9 billion in CHIPS Act grants, which could make the U.S. Intel’s largest shareholder.
This acquisition would enhance domestic semiconductor production to secure supply chains, positioned as a vital national security strategy by the Trump administration.
Intel’s market value is about $10.5 billion, aligning with the potential investment. Historical examples of government equity in industries during crises support this move.
