Intel Engaging in 'Semi-Destructive' Actions Against AMD, Says Firm
-
Intel wants to gain market share by lowering its product price, that is nothing wrong with it. It is likely to gain shares in Graphics, and server ( data center) too as it is lowering price with better performance in these graphic and server markets.

Semi? This isn’t anything new with Intel’s behaviour.

Intel also offers HP, Dell and other OEMs to design full systems around their hardware, so they don’t have to incur in R&D costs for it. So Intel is not just “selling cheap” (bulk, priority and premier partner), but also amortizing their OEM’s R&D costs, which is bananas. This is definitely running Intel dry and fast, so the question here is: how long does Intel have before getting too close to the point of no return? These are clearly short term strats which should be punishing their share price, but they’re so big and widespread that they’re betting on drying AMD first.
Regards.

So shrinking margins to improve competitiveness is considered “semi-destructive actions” now?

This Tom’s article is poorly written and a nothing sandwich. If there Intel is attempting to do some more shady stuff to stop AMD this article did not convey that to the readers.

It depends on what they mean, right? If they mean that they are overproducing and getting zero or negative margin to flood the market then it makes sense saying it this way.

“Breaking news! Company reduces prices to be more competitive!” First people complain that Intel’s prices are too high. Now they’re complaining they’re too low? If Intel becomes unprofitable, perhaps then there’s something to talk about beyond just the short-sighted impact on stock price.
