Intel (NASDAQ:INTC<\/a>) climbed about 8%<\/a> on Friday, despite news that Taiwanese authorities searched the home of its executive Wei-Jen Lo. Officials are investigating whether Lo, formerly of Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE:TSM<\/a>), may have taken sensitive technology related to advanced semiconductor processes.<\/p>\n

During the raid, prosecutors seized <\/a>computers and other materials. A court order also froze some of Lo’s assets, including real estate, as part of the inquiry. Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE:TSM<\/a>) has launched legal action, claiming Lo violated non-compete agreements and trade secrets regulations before leaving the company.<\/p>\n

Lo joined Intel (NASDAQ:INTC<\/a>) as vice president of research and development after retiring from Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE:TSM<\/a>) in July, where he held a senior role in corporate strategy and advanced node technology development.<\/p>\n

Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan rejected the allegations, telling Bloomberg they are speculation and emphasizing the company’s commitment to intellectual property rights.<\/p>\n

The investigation comes as Intel (NASDAQ:INTC<\/a>) navigates new risks tied to a recent $11.1 billion U.S. government stake, highlighting the company’s ongoing challenges in global semiconductor expansion.<\/p>\n

On the positive side, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said Apple (AAPL) is closer to choosing Intel as a foundry partner, boosting optimism around Intel’s 18A process and future chip orders.<\/p>\n

The report suggested Apple has tested Intel’s design tools and is waiting for the next software release, raising investor expectations that Intel could secure a major foundry contract and strengthen its position in semiconductor manufacturing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This article first appeared on GuruFocus.
