Intel Corp (NASDAQ:INTC) is trading higher Wednesday following positive analyst coverage from Northland Capital.
Northland Capital Markets analyst Gus Richard upgraded Intel from a Market Perform rating to an Outperform rating and announced a $62 price target.
Richard believes Intel is starting to execute on a "coherent strategy" for the first time in years.
The Northland Capital analyst thinks 2022 estimates for Intel are too conservative and notes that the stock is a good place to put money while waiting for multiples to compress.
Intel is likely "a good place for large-cap managers to wait out multiple compression," Richard said.
