Chips, Reese’s Pieces, & Keeping the U.S. Competitive with Intel CEO 7/15/22

The U.S. Congress is set to go on August recess, but Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger has a tough message for them before they go: pass the CHIPS Act, ASAP. America’s manufacturing industry has been waiting on government funding to produce tech’s all-important semiconductors for over a year, and Gelsinger says, it’s a matter of national security. We track the holdup in DC, the impact it’s having on job creation in America’s heartland, and the global chips supply chain. Plus, the USD is nearly at parity with the Euro, and President Biden is halfway through his Middle East travels.
