Intel shares set to fall most in 24 years as it struggles with turnaround

Intel was set to erase nearly $25 billion in market value on Friday in what would be its worst selloff since 2000 after it suspended its dividend and slashed its workforce to fund a costly turnaround for its chip-making business.

Shares of the company were down about 20% in premarket trading after Intel late on Thursday forecast quarterly revenue below estimates and said it was cutting 15% of its workforce, raising worries about its ability to catch up to Taiwan’s TSMC and other chipmakers it has fallen behind in recent years.
