Earlier this week, Intel Corporation (NASDAQ: INTC) faced a significant setback as its stock price fell following reports that its archrivals, AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) and Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA), were developing Arm-based PC chips.
With Intel currently dominating the market for PC chips, the news sent shockwaves through the industry. PC chip sales constitute over half of Intel’s revenue, making this development concerning for the tech giant.
Despite this recent stumble, Intel has had a fairly good year, boasting a 22% year-to-date stock gain, outperforming the S&P 500‘s 8% increase.

INTC technical analysis
shares of Intel were sitting at $32.52, down around 1% after market close on October 26, and nearly 9% in the past five trading sessions.
Over the past month, the stock lost over 6% of its value, recording just 11 out of 30 green days. During this period, INTC displayed price volatility of 3.4%.
In the wake of its recent declines, Intel is now trading just above the 200-day moving average (MA) at $32.01, which also acts as a support. Losing this key threshold would open the way for the stock to continue nosediving toward the next support at around $29.7.
On the upside, INTC faces a confluence resistance zone between $34.18 and $34.70. The latter level is where the 100-day MA is located.
