Industries move in repeating boom-and-bust cycles. This shows where this stock’s industry sits in that cycle, stage by stage (recovery → expansion → supercycle → steady → deceleration → contraction), from its fundamentals (orders, revenue, capital spending), not the stock’s price.
A booming industry is a tailwind for the names in it; a contracting one is a headwind. Companies in the same industry tend to rise and fall together with the cycle, the way a tide lifts and lowers every boat in the harbor at once, so a large part of a stock’s swing can come from where its industry sits rather than from the company itself. It’s context for reading the company’s results, not a buy/sell call. Full explanation →
Semiconductors is in supercycle. Describes the industry's cycle state, not a call on this stock.
The stage band shows the industry’s cycle over the chart’s timeline (each color a stage); a ▼ marks a quarter its growth inflected down — amber is an unconfirmed watch, red is confirmed the next quarter. Use “Overlay cycle on chart” to tint the price chart by stage. The industry’s fundamentals, not a signal on this stock.

View ValuationThis stock is volatile — it swings about 4% on a typical day and fell roughly 24% in its worst 12-month stretch.
View RiskIntel's growth depends on ramping 18A production to meet demand and improve yields. Revenue growth is currently at 7% year over year, which is steady. Intel trades at 12× price-to-sales, close to the 11× peer median. The price reflects less growth than expected, indicating modest expectations. A specific risk is the potential for guidance cuts, with a 10% miss probability. Peer multiples imply a price about 29% above where it trades.
