Tan framed the setup bluntly, arguing ... and advanced packaging offerings." Strategic validation stacks up. Intel Xeon 6 was picked as host CPU for NVIDIA's DGX Rubin NVL8 systems, Google signed a multiyear deal co-developing custom ASIC IPUs, and Intel joined the Terafab project alongside ...
The Apple chip deal, announced recently, adds a major new customer relationship that had not previously been part of Intel’s commercial story. The Terafab agreement with Elon Musk’s AI venture and the ongoing 18A and 14A process node ramp at Intel Foundry add further near-term catalysts to the stock’s setup heading into the second half of 2026.
Musk introduced Terafab at an event in Austin as part of a broader push into orbital AI infrastructure, competing with Jeff Bezos’ Project Sunrise and Google’s Project Suncatcher.
Strategic validation stacks up. Intel Xeon 6 was picked as host CPU for NVIDIA’s DGX Rubin NVL8 systems, Google signed a multiyear deal co-developing custom ASIC IPUs, and Intel joined the Terafab project alongside SpaceX, xAI, and Tesla. Cash sits at $17.25 billion, up 92.77% year over year, with $5 billion from NVIDIA and $2 billion from SoftBank on the balance sheet.
In this video, I will cover the biggest market stories of last week, including ARM (ARM +2.85%) and Shift4 earnings reactions, SpaceX's major investment in Terafab, and Anthropic's massive compute deal at Colosus 1.

Personally, I think Tesla, Prime Capital’s largest position, is a standout conviction holding, given the sizeable weighting and the potentially explosive growth profile to be had as the firm looks to robotics (Optimus), FSD, the rise of the Terafab, and other growth levers the market might still be missing for the seemingly high multiple today.
Earlier this month, Apple and Intel reportedly reached a preliminary agreement that would see Intel make some chips for Apple devices, and Tesla CEO Elon Musk said in April he plans to rely on Intel's future chips for his $119 billion Terafab ...
Elon Musk’s SpaceX, with Tesla and xAI, has filed plans for a $55 billion semiconductor manufacturing complex in Grimes County, Texas, potentially expanding to $119 billion. The Terafab project, with Intel as a strategic partner, aims to secure ...
The Claude maker said Wednesday it would use all the compute capacity at SpaceX's Colossus 1 data center, the latest partnership stitched onto its AI infrastructure buildout. Crypto Briefing|May 6, 2026SpaceX files for Texas tax break to begin $55 billion Terafab chip facility
“This shift is significantly increasing the need for Intel’s CPUs and wafer and advanced packaging offerings.” · Intel CFO David Zinsner described unprecedented demand for silicon and disciplined execution to expand available supply. The company also joined the Terafab project alongside ...
Alongside this, the Terafab project has been launched as a joint effort between Tesla, SpaceX, xAI, and Intel to build large scale AI compute for robotics and autonomy. Both developments point to a possible overhaul of how Tesla is structured ...
Terafab is designed as a vertically integrated semiconductor operation — instead of outsourcing different steps of chipmaking to different companies around the world, this single facility would handle everything from chip design and lithography ...
Neutral Sentiment: Intel continues to be featured in bullish AI and infrastructure narratives, including reports tied to Apple, Tesla’s Terafab project, and Intel’s role in AI compute builds, which support the long-term thesis but do not offset near-term caution.
I think that the whole purpose of this, regardless of talking about overall industry capacity, regardless of saying, hey, there might be an opportunity for us to make a contribution to the industry writ large, really, I think the Terafab vision is about helping SpaceX, helping xAI, helping Tesla to do what they need to do to build optimist robots, to make massive launches of goods and services into orbit to further Mars missions, solar power capacity for space based data centers.
On March 21, 2026, Musk outlined the Terafab project in Austin, Texas: a joint SpaceX, Tesla, and xAI initiative targeting one terawatt of AI processor production annually. That would be roughly 50 times the current combined global production ...
Terafab serves all three companies. AI5 chips for Tesla FSD and Optimus. D3 chips for SpaceX orbital data centers. Potentially custom inference silicon for xAI Grok deployment.
Elon’s TeraFab aims to produce 50x the current global chip production rate. The estimated cost: $119 billion, though Dave thinks that’s a massive underestimate given that a single normal fab runs $40 billion. The Taiwan risk is real: Two-thirds of all GPUs come through TSMC.
SpaceX and Tesla have filed a public notice in Texas for TERAFAB, a proposed $119B semiconductor manufacturing facility aimed at securing custom AI silicon.
Terafab aims to enhance chip supply capacity to meet the growing chip demands of SpaceX and Tesla. The $75 billion raised from SpaceX’s IPO could serve as a primary source of financing for this project.
