States can control who companies do business with, and also who buys and sells them.
I’d be surprised if the US let any foreign actor buy Intel, and pretty sure specifically US chip companies (production, design, and IP) are barred from doing most kinds of business with China.
This is the admin that allowed Japan to buy US Steel, which the previous admin had not allowed, WHILE also putting tariffs on steel to attempt to force domestic steel manufacturing to be competitive… it’s inconsistent, and doesn’t bode well for other such domestic industries.
There’s no way politicians will let one of the most important chip manufacturers die. If push comes to shove, they’ll get subsidies
… Have you seen the competence of the politicians on display in the US right now?
sure, but if the us doesn’t china will.
China will subsidize Intel?
Intel can go anywhere. To the highest bidder and the lowest cost.

Didn’t the orange one threaten tsmc to buy 49% of Intel or will get higher tariffs?
Probably not, but these morons will probably wait until too much damage is done. They’re shortsighted AF.
or they will just move overseas.
