INTC Royalty vs NVDA Profits
SemiAnalysis's line chart drew 93.1K views on X: 1.8x its typical post and #13 of 33 SemiAnalysis charts we track by views. Read Oct 10, 2026.
Nvidia's 5% stake in Intel was a shocking 🙀move that caught both analysts and industry observers off guard! However SemiAnalysis remembers a similar Nvidia and Intel deal struck 14 years ago and we see this as Jensen paying off an old debt
Why it spread
This post spread because an independent author with a big source reach paired a shocking Nvidia and Intel stake story with a remembered 14 year old deal, drawing 292 likes, 23 reposts, 2 quotes, 90 saves and 93,113 views.
What worked
- The post text frames the news as a shocking move that caught analysts and industry observers off guard, which gives readers a reason to stop and look.
- The chart type is a line showing INTC royalty payments decline as a percentage of NVDA profits, which turns an abstract ownership story into a visible downward trend.
- The account is an independent author with big source reach, so the post carries credibility without needing a source line on the chart.
What to borrow
We could use the same framing by tying a current ownership or partnership move back to an older deal in our own data, then showing the long run trend as a simple line.
Careful
Do not over-read the low design polish, medium self labelling, missing source line, bottom quarter quote rate or the absence of points and comments as proof of what caused the spread.
