Intel Corp.

Everyone knows Intel. It's the processor inside most computers on the planet. After a few tough years, the company is looking at a major comeback in 2026. The stock is up over 110% year-to-date, hitting an all-time high for the first time in 25 years. The reason is AI. While GPU chips were used to build AI models, Intel's processors are now needed to run those models every single day, and demand has surged. It's a classic comeback story worth watching.
