Barclays Skeptical on Intel After the Q1 Blowout: Is the Comeback Already Priced In?

Barclays raised its Intel price target to $65 from $45 while maintaining an Equal Weight rating after last week's blowout Q1 2026 results. The higher target reflects improved fundamentals and analyst conviction, though the unchanged rating suggests a still-balanced risk/reward view. The note is positive for sentiment but likely a modest stock mover rather than a major catalyst.
