Korea Summit will be available on the 25th, and Samsung Electronics is evaluating equity investment Intel to show support for the Trump administration.

In recent years, due to the sluggish demand for advanced processes and heavy capital expenditures, Intel has been dragged down by financial pressure. The United States has actively promoted the "Save Intel" plan, including considering NT$100 and attracting external investors. Recently, Japanese silver has taken the lead in injecting US$2 billion, attracting high attention from the market for Intel.

According to Korean media reports, if Samsung follows investment, it will not only strengthen its foothold in the US market, but also highlight its response to Trump's policy. Both parties have established a cooperation foundation in foundry business in the past. For example, some Intel motherboard control chips are manufactured by Samsung. The industry believes that this will form a "intercompensation model": Intel has received capital injection, and Samsung can improve the utilization rate of crystal foundry production.

A person in the industry pointed out: "President Trump has personally promoted Intel's recovery. If Samsung chooses to perform through investment performance, it will be a big gift, and it will be a good deal for Samsung to compete with both status and real profit." At the same time, US financial media CNBC also reported that Intel is negotiating with many large investors in order to seek further financial support.

In addition, Korean media also pointed out that a stake in Intel is not Samsung's only solution, and Samsung is also evaluating the establishment of cooperation with Amkor, a US blockade manufacturer. But as of now, Samsung has not made any official statement on its U.S. investment plan.
