Boursorama : Intel could lower the price of its chips by 50%

For the ones who thought that the war of prices was already aggressive, you haven’t seen all of it yet », an analyst from Lehman Brothers said on Monday, mentioned by the on-line stock exchange website Boursorama. In an article untitled "Intel will trigger a war of prices for its chips (Lehman Brothers)", Dan Niles considers that Intel could lower the price of its most powerful microprocessors by 50%, by the end of August. Thus the silicon giant would contribute to the fight in order to go against its challenger, AMD (Advanced Micro Device) and regain market shares. This will give another turn to the war of prices which began months ago, following the economic slowdown.
