A story on the same day is not a cause, and a group move is not proof either. Group: the median of NVDA, AVGO, MU and AMD that day, the largest companies in INTC’s SEC industry; “moved with INTC” means the same direction and at least half the size.
What’s next · results
Before the next report: what the first day after the last four did
Six trading days after each results filing (SEC 8-K, Item 2.02). INTC reports after the close, so day 1 is the next close. Each time, day 6 ended on the same side as day 1.

Next report: expected late JanuaryEstimated from the dates of its last four results filings. Not announced. Since the Oct 29 report: −36.71%. Four reports is a small sample.
Each line is INTC’s close against its close before the filing, on licensed end-of-day closes. What happened after each report, not a forecast; a move on the day is not a cause.
Same industry
INTC against four chip peers, a year at 100
INTC is up 52.8% in a year. Micron is up 3.3 times and Advanced Micro Devices 2.1. Of these four, NVIDIA (+6.4%) and Broadcom (−6.8%) did less. Weekly closes, Nov 7, 2025 = 100, on a log scale so a 3.3-fold rise and a 6.8% fall both read honestly.
End-of-day closes (Databento EOD), the last close of each week. The four peers are the largest US-listed companies by market value in INTC’s SEC industry (Semiconductors & Related Devices) with a year of closes. It shows what the closes did; a move here is not a cause, a forecast or a call.
