Zinger Key Points

Mobileye Global Inc MBLY stock was trading higher Thursday after Intel Corp INTC said it does not plan to divest its majority interest in the company. U.S. Fed rate cut also had a bearing on the stock price movement.

Intel made the statement after winning a multi-year, multi-billion-dollar U.S. chipmaking deal from existing customer Amazon.com Inc AMZN cloud unit and U.S. semiconductor grant.

Intel also won up to $3 billion in CHIPS and Science Act funding, in addition to the $8.5 billion in grants and $11 billion in loans the struggling chipmaker previously won under the act.
