Intel Soars After CEO Bob Swan Announces Resignation
Just two weeks after Third Point launched an activist campaign targeting Intel, when on Dec 29, Dan Loeb sent a letter to the chip-challenged semiconductor company urging it "to evaluate strategic alternatives" including "potential divestment of certain failed acquisitions," and in which Loeb said that Intel's most urgent task was addressing its "human capital management issue", as many of its talented chip designers have fled, "demoralized by the status quo", moments ago we got the latest departure of "human capital" when CNBC reported that CEO Bob Swan was stepping down effective February 15, and would be replaced by VMWare CEO Pat Gelsinger .
The stock has reacted furiously, surging as much as 14% premarket…
…. while VMWare shares are down 5%.
Shortly after the CNBC report, Intel confirmed the resignation, issuing the following press release:
Intel Appoints Tech Industry Leader Pat Gelsinger as New CEO
Intel today announced that its board of directors has appointed 40-year technology industry leader Pat Gelsinger as its new chief executive officer, effective Feb. 15, 2021. Gelsinger will also join the Intel board of directors upon assuming the role. He will succeed Bob Swan, who will remain CEO until Feb. 15.
Today's announcement is unrelated to Intel's 2020 financial performance. Intel expects its fourth-quarter 2020 revenue and EPS to exceed its prior guidance provided on Oct. 22, 2020. In addition, the company has made strong progress on its 7nm process technology and plans on providing an update when it reports its full fourth-quarter and full-year 2020 results as previously scheduled on Jan. 21, 2021.
Gelsinger is a highly respected CEO and industry veteran with more than four decades of technology and leadership experience, including 30 years at Intel where he began his career.
"Pat is a proven technology leader with a distinguished track record of innovation, talent development, and a deep knowledge of Intel. He will continue a values-based cultural leadership approach with a hyper focus on operational execution," said Omar Ishrak, independent chairman of the Intel board. "After careful consideration, the board concluded that now is the right time to make this leadership change to draw on Pat's technology and engineering expertise during this critical period of transformation at Intel. The board is confident that Pat, together with the rest of the leadership team, will ensure strong execution of Intel's strategy to build on its product leadership and take advantage of the significant opportunities ahead as it continues to transform from a CPU to a multi-architecture XPU company."

Q Research General #10978: Moar From Q Pond Hopping Edition
Elon Musk says Tesla will reopen its New York factory 'as soon as humanly possible' to help make ventilators - as Gov Cuomo warns 'there is not a stockpile large enough to meet the national need'
Elon Musk has said Tesla will reopen its New York factory 'as soon as humanly possible' to help make and distribute ventilators to battle the coronavirus pandemic.
'Giga New York will reopen for ventilator production as soon as humanly possible. We will do anything in our power to help the citizens of New York,' the billionaire said in a Tweet on Wednesday.
Medtronic Chief Executive Officer Omar Ishrak told CNBC earlier in the day that the medical device maker has started working with Tesla, which is fast on track to start production of ventilators at Fremont.
Several other automotive companies, including Ford and General Motors, have offered to use their manufacturing capabilities to ramp up production of ventilators.
The controversial entrepreneur, who has repeatedly downplayed the severity of the global health crisis, delivered over 1,000 ventilators to a California hospital to help with the treatment of patients.
California Governor Gavin Newsom praised Musk's 'heroic effort' during a press conference Monday.
'I told you a few days ago that [Musk] was likely to have 1,000 ventilators this week,' Newsom said. 'They arrived in Los Angeles and Elon Musk is already working with the hospital association and others to get those ventilators out in real time. It's an heroic effort.'
Tesla had bought the ventilators in China and shipped them to the US, Musk said.
He also supplied 50,000 face masks to the Seattle home of a University of Washington physician Sunday.
The outspoken Tesla boss seems to have backpedaled on previous statements were he has dismissed coronavirus as 'dumb' and said children are 'essentially immune'.
Musk's latest pledge came as New York state struggles to bring the spread of the deadly virus under control, with the number of infected individuals topping 20,000 and deaths reaching 385 as of Thursday morning.
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has repeatedly stressed the need for more equipment - specifically ventilators - to be sent to New York state.
