Intel Shares Slip on Fourth Quarter Earnings Slide

Tech stocks were pressured Friday by shares of Intel Corp. after the world's largest computer chip maker posted a drop in earnings and revenue for last year's final three months.  The company issued the report after Thursday's closing bell, holding back stocks including the company's own shares, which were down 6.7 percent with just a half hour left in Friday's session.  The other chipmakers saw their shares slip, as well, though the broader Nasdaq had rebounded late in the session and was just shy of breaking even for the day with the trading day nearly over.

AMD to Cut 10 Percent of Workforce

AMD, the world's largest manufacturer of computer chips next to Intel, announced late Thursday that it was preparing to trim about 1,200 jobs from its payroll, just over 10 percent, in an attempt to reduce costs.  The company said it would begin to benefit from the move immediately, cutting its labor cost by $10 million this quarter and $118 million in the first quarter of 2012.  The company also said it will implement certain “operational efficiency initiatives” which it hopes will save it another $90 million next year.

Intel Unveils New Ultra Low Voltage Chip

At its annual developer forum on Monday, chipmaker Intel unveiled a new computer chip that could significantly lower the amount of energy used by computing devices.  The chip, which is currently being called “Claremont” by the company, is a near-threshold voltage processor, meaning it allows transistors to operate at very low, near-threshold voltages to increase efficiency and decrease consumption.  Threshold voltage is the level at which transistors turn on and begin conducting current.

Google, Intel Team Up for Android Phone Chips

Google and Intel announced this week they have agreed to a new partnership in which smartphones running Google's Android operating system will begin featuring Intel chips in the first half of next year.  The collaboration was announced at Intel's developer conference in San Francisco.  For Intel, the move makes perfect sense.  As the popularity of tablet computers has grown rapidly, Intel has been one of the hardest-hit companies by the trend as less Americans purchased PCs running on its processors.
