According to CoinMeta, Trump's stake in Intel surged by 367% when the stock price reached $95 on INTC. The U.S. government's $8.9 billion stake increased to approximately $41.5 billion, highlighting Washington's increasingly important role as a corporate shareholder. Trump's latest post generated on AI regarding Intel shows that Intel shares were purchased at $20 and are now worth $95, and he claims to have earned “trillions of dollars” for the United States in stock and other assets. This image is closely correlated with Intel's actual market trend: on September 4, the stock closed at $95.80. The government's stake in Intel was established in August 2025, when Washington agreed to invest $8.9 billion to acquire about 433.3 million shares, accounting for approximately 9.9% of the company. Calculated at $95.80 per share, this stake is worth about $41.5 billion, representing an unrealized gain of about $32.6 billion, or a growth of about 367%. This move is unusual as it does not constitute a subsidy in the traditional sense. The U.S. government is actually a shareholder in Intel. The 2025 agreement transformed previously authorized chip bills and security block funds into equity. Intel stated that the government will maintain a passive ownership position, without a seat on the board of directors or limited governance rights.
