What the analyst said
Citi analyst Christopher Danely reiterated a Neutral rating and $24 price target on Intel (NASDAQ: INTC).
“Intel remains the most popular short among investors we met but we believe the stock could squeeze higher during earnings given potential upside to EPS driven by lower capex and opex, and likely upside from the PC end market (60% of sales).
We would note our 2Q25 estimates are above consensus.”
