Peers Micron and Super Micro Computer also fell in Monday morning trading.
Intel shares fell 5% during the morning trading session on Monday, September 28, 2026. The drop placed the company among the weaker performers across the semiconductor industry as investors weighed renewed concerns about the speed and risks of artificial intelligence development.
The decline came alongside losses among peer chipmakers. Micron Technology shares fell about 3%, while Super Micro Computer slipped 1%.
The market retreat followed fresh warnings from technology executives regarding rapidly advancing AI systems. Reuters reported that several industry leaders have called for measures to address the risks tied to increasingly capable artificial intelligence.
The pullback interrupted recent gains for Intel stock. MarketWatch data showed that Intel jumped 12.1% on September 21, driven by investor demand for AI server processors that lifted chipmaker shares across the sector.
