Intel, the chip giant, is causing concerns among lawmakers and analysts as its stock plummets and it experiences setbacks. However, there are still potential ways for Intel to recover. First, its 18A process technology must succeed, which could enable it to regain customers and catch up to competitors like TSMC. Second, Intel's plan to spin out its manufacturing business, Intel Foundry, needs major companies to use its services. Third, government aid under the CHIPS Act and support from Washington could potentially help Intel become profitable again. Nevertheless, there are discussions of a possible breakup or merger if Intel fails to turn things around.
