INTC's full-year Zacks Consensus Estimates are calling for earnings of $4.61 per share and revenue of $73.21 billion. These results would represent year-over-year changes of -13.02% and -5.98%, respectively.
Investors might also notice recent changes to analyst estimates for INTC. Recent revisions tend to reflect the latest near-term business trends. With this in mind, we can consider positive estimate revisions a sign of optimism about the company's business outlook.
Based on our research, we believe these estimate revisions are directly related to near-team stock moves. To benefit from this, we have developed the Zacks Rank, a proprietary model which takes these estimate changes into account and provides an actionable rating system.
