Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) is one of the 11 Buzzing AI Stocks on Wall Street. On January 28, Tigress Financial Partners analyst Ivan Feinseth raised the price target on the stock to $66.00 while maintaining a “Buy” rating. The firm sees AI Data Center tailwinds, 18A execution, and AI PC refresh driving a multi-year reacceleration.

“We reiterate our Buy rating and increase our 12-month target price to $66 as AI Data Center
tailwinds, 18A execution, and AI PC refresh further advance INTC’s turnaround into an
increasingly compelling multi-year upside story, and the recent pullback creates a significant
buying opportunity.”

Tigress Financial noted how Intel’s Q4 2025 results have demonstrated that the company is gaining real traction, supported by factors including AI Data Center momentum, 18A progress, and strong cash generation. Accelerating AI Compute, Foundry, and U.S. policy tailwinds have been deemed as part of “an increasingly compelling multi-year upside story.”

The firm also highlighted several growth drivers for Intel, including scaling AI compute capabilities, monetizing 18A/14A manufacturing, and expansion of the company’s role as a foundry and ecosystem partner.

Tigress noted how Intel continues to leverage its “robust balance sheet and free cash flow to deliver shareholder value through disciplined capital allocation.”

Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) designs, manufactures, and sells advanced semiconductors, computer products, and technologies, delivering data storage, computer, networking, and communications platforms.
