- Intel (INTC) shares drop. A scorching rally in Intel Corp. shares is threatening huge losses for traders wagering that they’re due to fall. But that isn’t stopping them from placing those bets. Short interest in Intel shares as a percentage of the company's float is near a 52-week high, despite the risk of betting against the stock.
- Qualcomm (QCOM) shares drop. Investors opted to lock in profits following a rally in chip stocks. The latest surge was boosted by continued investor enthusiasm over AI infrastructure build-outs.
