Not really, Intel had funding from Biden's bill, and Trump told them that in order to have that money they had to give a stake to the government. In this case Intel isn't being bailed out, just securing funding for new chip foundaries
My wife and I met on one of those dating apps a few years before the pandemic. We've been married over 6 years now.
I consider us more of the exception than the norm. I also went on at least 100 dates over 18 months mostly to realize what I wanted and didn't want in a relationship. It did work out for us, but I don't recommend that approach to everyone.
If it's already in the news, it's already too late to short. News events tend to quickly reverse as well so I'd be looking for a long position at a support level
They may feel like grassroots campaigns to save farms, but much of it is backing from large corporate interests. Doesn't mean that there aren't legit concerns, but the sponsorship makes me weary.
AMD doesn't fab their own chips. They currently utilize TSMC for that. Yes, if we were only talking about cutting edge chip design the US has no shortage.
USG is looking at spending ~$10B on an Intel stake. It's worth wondering whether it might make more sense to instead put the same money into AMD and earmark it for US fabs. Ditto NVidia.
There is an argument to be made there about how best to allocate the funds, but regardless of how the funds are deployed that spend has to be on Intel if you want it to protect US chip manufacturing and R&D. There are no other US chip manufacturers that are even trying to produce a chip under 12 nm. Unfortunately they are the only viable option.
The state borders themselves were gerrymandered in the 19th century to influence the electoral college. That's why for example there's all these very empty northern states like the two Dakotas, Montana and Wyoming that collectively have fewer people than LA but between them they get 8 senators.
As an example: in Texas, there are laws and processes that discourage voting in high-population-density areas that trend less conservative. Can you think of benign reason for a law that bams providing water for people waiting in line to vote in a state that gets really hot?
