The Trump administration is reportedly in talks with Intel about the U.S. government potentially taking a stake in the struggling chipmaker, Bloomberg News said. The discussions followed a meeting this week between President Donald Trump and Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan, days after Trump publicly demanded Tan’s resignation over his investments in Chinese tech firms, some tied to the Chinese military. Intel declined to comment on the report but reaffirmed its commitment to supporting Trump’s push to bolster U.S. tech and manufacturing. “Discussion about hypothetical deals should be regarded as speculation unless officially announced by the administration,” said White House spokesman Kush Desai. Details on the size and price of the stake remain under negotiation. A deal could provide fresh capital to aid Intel’s long-running turnaround efforts, as the former chipmaking leader has seen its dominance erode in recent years.
