Wow, 3%? IoT devices are selling like hotcakes! I need to invest in Intel!
Not Intel.
Better make that an investment in Arm Holdings or MIPS Technologies. Just the Raspberry Pi alone sold 10 million units [walesonline.co.uk] as of last year. It, many SBCs, and all your billions of smartphones and tablets are Arm-based. MIPS is more in appliances but is seeing gains in Russia and China. Intel is still around, but dependent on M$ and many want both to go away. Certainly if we get rid of M$ any time soon, it will take Intel with it.
Money is not free speech. Elections should not be auctions.
