Intel (INTC) is soaring after earnings. The stock is up 23% on Friday, pushing above the dot-com-era ceiling it set in 2000. The move — its best since October 1987 — comes amid Intel’s best month in at least 50 years.
If Intel's current after-hours stock momentum carries through Friday's close, it would mark a milestone moment. Shares are up 13.6% in the extended session on Thursday to $75.87. That's above Intel's record closing high of $74.
Intel stock hit new all-time highs for the first time since 2000, surging 85% in 18 months on AI chip demand and its 18A manufacturing breakthrough.
The stock rose as much as 1.5 per cent to US$69.55, topping a peak it hit on Jan. 24, 2020. The shares are up 90 per cent this year, after soaring 84 per cent in 2025. Intel is now roughly eight per cent from its all-time closing high of US$74.88, established on Aug. 31, 2000.
