SoftBank Group Corp.’s (SFTBY) Tokyo-listed shares have seen a strong two-day surge, mirroring the buoyancy seen in Oracle stock after the Larry Ellison-founded company spoke about strong artificial intelligence (AI) momentum.The rally in SoftBank, which has a significant weighting in Japan’s Nikkei 225 average, pushed the country’s benchmark index to a new high.&nbsp;Oracle’s Nasdaq-listed stock settled Wednesday's session up nearly 36%, after Ellison and CEO Safra Catz highlighted the company’s AI opportunity in the quarterly release and during the earnings call.&nbsp;The optimism seeped down to SoftBank’s stock, an investment holding company run by Masayoshi Son that invests heavily in technology through its SoftBank Vision Funds (SVF).While speaking at SoftBank’s annual shareholder meeting held in July, Son expressed hopes to transform his company into the “world’s top platformer for ASI [artificial super intelligence] as he believed that it would be a winner-takes-all arena. “I’m all in,” he had said.Son was found alongside Ellison and OpenAI co-founder Sam Altman in late January when President Donald Trump announced a $500 billion private investment through a project dubbed Stargate to expand AI infrastructure in the U.S. over the next five years.Softbank and OpenAI are the lead partners, with the former focusing on operations and the latter on the financials.

Is Intel's Revival Ahead After SoftBank's $2 Billion Investment 

Intel's revival as a leading chipmaker has gained traction following Tuesday's announcement that SoftBank had taken a 2% stake in the company worth $2 billion. 

Intel Corp.’s (INTC) participation in the U.S. CHIPS Act has garnered attention after a research note from Bernstein questioned the terms of the program.The firm argues that what was expected to be a $10.9 billion government grant now risks turning into a less favorable equity arrangement for the chipmaking giant,&nbsp;as per TheFly. Instead of receiving the funds as initially anticipated, Intel may be offering up a 10% ownership stake to the federal government in exchange for funding.&nbsp;Bernstein thinks this trade-off is “worse” for the chipmaker and raised concerns over shareholder value. “Funding a build-out with no customers probably won't end well for shareholders,” the firm remarked, noting that capital alone will not resolve Intel’s deeper challenges.Intel stock traded 5% higher in Tuesday’s pre-market session. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around the stock remained in ‘extremely bullish’ (95/100) territory amid ‘extremely high’ (82/100) message volume levels.&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:947/108;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_08_19_082341_png_cdaebba42b.webp" alt="INTC’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 08:00 a.m. ET on Aug. 19, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits" width="947" height="108"><figcaption>INTC’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 08:00 a.m. ET on Aug. 19, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>The Intel stock witnessed an 880% surge in user message count in 24 hours on Stocktwits.

The deal involves SoftBank acquiring common shares of Intel.

Intel’s Government Equity Swap Raises Eyebrows At Bernstein, But Retail Remains Confident

While the U.S. government might encourage customers toward Intel, Bernstein warned that building out capacity without customers could be a costly mistake.

Intel Corp. (INTC) stock surged nearly 5.5% in extended trading on Monday after the struggling chipmaker announced that the company struck a deal with Masayoshi Son-led SoftBank (SFTBY) regarding a $2 billion strategic investment.The two companies have signed a definitive securities purchase agreement under which SoftBank will make a $2 billion investment in Intel stock. This would give the Japanese investment firm a roughly 2% stake in Intel (based on the $103.56 billion market cap as of the close on Monday).The development&nbsp;is part of a commitment from both sides to invest in advanced technology and semiconductor innovation in the U.S. In a statement, Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan said, “We are very pleased to deepen our relationship with SoftBank, a company that’s at the forefront of so many areas of emerging technology and innovation and shares our commitment to advancing U.S. technology and manufacturing leadership.”Son, meanwhile, said, “This strategic investment reflects our belief that advanced semiconductor manufacturing and supply will further expand in the United States, with Intel playing a critical role.”Following the announcement, Intel was among the trending&nbsp;stocks on Stocktwits. Sentiment toward the&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/INTC">Intel stock</a> remained ‘extremely bullish’ (95/100), with the message volume on the stream at ‘extremely high’ levels.The 24-hour message volume change leading up to late Monday was about 670%.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:617/57;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_08_18_at_9_41_48_PM_png_6636451a84.webp" alt="Screenshot 2025-08-18 at 9.41.48 PM.png" width="617" height="57"><figcaption>INTC sentiment and message volume as of 9:40 p.m., Aug. 18 | source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>A bullish watcher saw shorts getting burnt. “$INTC screw the shorts.

President Donald Trump met with Tan last week in the White House after the former took potshots at the Intel CEO over his investments in Chinese companies.Intel has lagged behind its peers in the artificial intelligence (AI) race and has suffered in its core&nbsp;business segments due to product missteps and execution issues. It began rightsizing operations in a big way after Tan, a former Cadence Design Systems executive, took over the helm in March.Since then, the company has announced shelving foundry plans and laying off&nbsp;employees in a bid to conserve cash.Baird analyst Tristan Gerra previously suggested TSMC (TSM) could take a minority interest in Intel’s fab, adding that a joint venture outcome would be a positive catalyst for the stock.Intel stock has risen 18% for the year amid the rightsizing initiatives.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/tesla-just-launched-new-model-y-l-in-china-here-s-everything-you-need-to-know/chsgGy1RdX8">Tesla Just Launched New Model Y L In China — Here’s Everything You Need To Know</a>
