Intel Invests and 3 Chip Stocks To Note Now

Intel Corp (NASDAQ:INTC): Intel Capital, the chip company’s venture-capital arm, made a new investment in BlueStacks. The companies announced the deal yesterday, but they didn’t reveal the amount that Intel Capital invested in BlueStacks. BlueStacks offers software, named App Player, allowing users to run their mobile applications on a Mac or Windows PC. According to BlueStacks, the company’s platform was downloaded over 5 million times, and it supports the most popular titles, like Angry Birds and Instagram. These applications are designed for mobile platforms running on ARM architecture, so getting them to run on an Intel-based Mac or Windows PC requires another development.
