Intel just popped through a resistance line

There's some chatter in both the US and Europe about subsidizing chip manufacturing to help deal with the semiconductor shortage. That has sent chip stocks surging today, including Intel. I like Intel a lot, because it's quite reasonably valued for a chip company and has lots of plans for expanding its manufacturing capacity, which means it's poised to be a big beneficiary from any subsidies. Here are some vital statistics:

forward p/e: 12
forward p/s: 3
p/fcf: 12
forward div yield: 2.6%
patents per year per B$ market cap: 14
upside to median 4-year valuation: 8%
upside to average analyst price target: 20%
average S&P Global fundamentals rating: 70/100
average analyst score: 8/10
esg score: above average
put-call ratio: 0.9

Honestly, I think this is a long-term buy-and-hold. I had hoped for a dip to $52.20, but it looks like we may not get that low. Look for a close above resistance as confirmation of a breakout here. If we pull back and close below the resistance line, that's a signal that we may continue down to $52.20 after all.
