Once work from home became the &#8220;new normal&#8221;, the demand for IT products has skyrocketed, though. Chip makers around the globe were caught flat-footed and are racing to meet the increased demand. Intel&#8217;s CEO Pat Gelsinger has pledged to quickly ramp up production to get ahead of the demand curve. Intel also intends to splash $43.5 billion for its new chip fabrication plants in Arizon and Ohio and for the expansion in New Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned for more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Intel (INTC) is getting close to a deal to buy the Israeli-based chip foundry Tower Semiconductor (TSEM).
