The Facts

  • The company has named CFO David Zinsner and Michelle Johnston Holthaus as interim co-CEOs while conducting a search for a permanent replacement, with Holthaus also appointed as CEO of Intel Products.

  • Under Gelsinger's leadership, Intel's stock declined by 53%, while competitor Nvidia's value soared to $3.4 trillion, making it 33 times more valuable than Intel's $104 billion market capitalization.


The Spin

The sudden departure disrupts Intel's ambitious turnaround plan, including its strategy to become a major contract manufacturer and restore American semiconductor leadership, potentially jeopardizing crucial initiatives and partnerships that were showing early signs of progress.
