Intel is in line to receive as much as $8.5 billion in direct funding from the federal government as part of the CHIPS Act, the White House said on Wednesday.
The company could also receive up to $11 billion in loans tied to the legislation, which was passed in 2022.
The awards highlight the scale of the Biden administration's push to subsidize semiconductor manufacturing on U.S. soil.

That article hit last night. Intel is trading down today about 25 cents. Apparrently this news has been expected for a long time to help Intel compete with Taiwan Semiconductor, and that's why it didn't jump the stock.
