HSBC analyst Frank Lee upgraded Intel's 12-month price target from $100 to $200, doubling expectations due to the inclusion of Intel Foundry's value and rising external customer demand. He also increased server CPU shipment growth forecasts for 2026 and 2027, reflecting confidence in Intel's advanced 18A process technology and roadmap execution. Despite Intel's stock already surging over 205% year-to-date, Lee sees potential for a further 66% rally, contrasting with a cautious average Wall Street target of around $101. This bullish outlook highlights Intel's strengthening position amid competition from AMD and NVIDIA, with significant growth expected from mid-2026 onward.
