How much did Intel spent on share buybacks?

What about R&D

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They spent 16 billion dollars in R&D in 2023, which is a bit lower than the 17 billion in 2022, but still way higher than the 13 billion from 2019. In 2023 they distributed as dividends (might be wrong on the calculation here, but I think that this is the right number, 1 billion dollars)

Intel wasted 108b between 2006 and 2020. During this time AMD recovered from near bankruptcy and took the lead.

We are also gonna give intel. Illions for the fab now 🤡
