On October 10, 2025, Intel Corporation (INTC) closed at $36.37, down -3.78%, with the current price at $35.67 (-1.92%), marking a significant decline over the past week. The primary driver was renewed investor concern over rare earth supply disruptions after China tightened export rules for materials critical to semiconductor manufacturing, as reported by multiple sources. This supply risk affected major chipmakers, including Intel, AMD, and Nvidia, and led to broad sector declines. No major company-specific news or announcements from Intel were reported on October 13, 2025, and the next scheduled earnings event is on October 23, 2025. The price movement is attributed mainly to macro-level supply chain fears rather than changes in Intel's fundamentals or business strategy.
