Musk amplifying Lip-Bu Tan's Terafab commitment puts Intel's foundry ambitions back in front of 290,000 viewers, and anchor customers are the one thing that turns that business around.

Lip-Bu Tan's public confirmation that Intel will continue working with Elon Musk on Terafab is a meaningful signal for a foundry business that has been starved of high-profile anchor customers. Winning or keeping a partner of Musk's scale is exactly the kind of commercial validation Intel's manufacturing ambitions need to be taken seriously again.

Musk retweeted the news on October 7, 2026, and the post reached more than 290,000 impressions, putting the Terafab partnership in front of retail investors, tech insiders, and institutional observers in a single scroll. Musk choosing to boost the story keeps Intel's foundry narrative alive in a news cycle where attention is scarce.

The retweet drew reposts of its own, showing an audience actively passing the news along. For Intel, that organic spread matters because foundry credibility is built as much on perception and momentum as it is on wafer capacity.

Terafab remains the thread to pull here. Any further detail from Intel on the scope, timeline, or commercial terms of that arrangement would sharpen the picture considerably for investors trying to gauge how real the foundry recovery story is.

A trader says his $1 million margin YOLO doubled in two months, and he's answering by piling another $1 million of margin gains into a single de-SPAC name plus Tesla and McDonald's. Max margin turns any drawdown into a forced seller, which is the part these updates never show until it happens.

Cramer is endorsing the chip trade across logic, accelerators and memory in one breath, a sign the AI build-out bid is spreading beyond Nvidia.

Halving AI5 memory to 72GB is a bet that scarce LPDDR supply is the gate on Optimus volume rather than silicon design, and Musk says the performance cost is negligible.

@DirtyTesLa We cut our RAM in half for the Tesla AI5 chip (now 72GB of LP5) and 1/3 for AI6 (now 144GB of LP6). This was the only way to get enough volume for Optimus production and greatly reduces cost. As it turns out, we think this will have a negligible effect on Optimus performance,

Mad Money w/ Jim Cramer 9/28/26

Cramer stays with Intel and Meta, calling Meta's Muse agentic platform a CPU-driven demand cycle for Intel, AMD and Arm
Intel fell 7 points; he frames the pullback after a parabolic run as another entry chance
Nvidia's $150 billion buyback, the largest ever, plus its plan to rein in autonomous AI agents
Chevron called the king of oil; Enbridge flagged for its 6% yield, with Microsoft's Copilot and Apple also named

With breadth the narrowest since the dot-com unwind, Cramer's answer is to concentrate: energy for pricing power, CPU names for a product cycle that higher rates cannot dent. Owners of Intel get told the 7-point drop is an invitation, and Nvidia holders get the biggest buyback ever as the floor under the stock.

Mad Money w/ Jim Cramer 9/24/26

Cramer pushes back on index-fund supremacy, calling the absolutist version of it wrong
Still recommends 50% of savings in an S&P 500 fund as a hedge against your own mistakes
Argues the S&P holds far fewer than 500 good stocks, so you buy the bad with the good
Caller questions on portfolio structure for young investors, 529 plans, and retirement vs. mad money

Put half in an index fund as insurance, the other half in individual names you have actually done the homework on. Cramer's case is that an S&P 500 fund gives you 8% to 10% a year and mediocrity alongside the winners, which is why he says it will not make you rich on its own.
