Morgan Stanley: Intel's CPU supply shortages could boost short-term earnings but benefit AMD in the long term

Morgan Stanley indicates that Intel's server CPU supply shortages may boost short-term earnings but highlight long-term risks, including production capacity constraints and market share loss to competitors like AMD. The report raises concerns about Intel's foundry business credibility due to its inability to meet internal demand and suggests that regaining competitiveness in server and high-end desktop markets will require waiting for future product releases, Nova Lake and Coral Rapids, expected in late 2026 and late 2027, respectively. The report also notes Intel's 18A process costs are impacting gross margins.
