Intel shares declined Monday as rising Treasury yields, caution over artificial intelligence risks and profit-taking offset a 28.42% monthly gain. The 10-year Treasury yield reached 5.25%, its highest level since June 2007, while traders assigned a 70.3% probability to a second consecutive Federal Reserve rate hike. Oil prices also rose after President Donald Trump rejected Iran's proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days. Nvidia introduced software designed to prevent AI agents from breaching containment and named Intel among its partners. Despite the decline, Intel remains above its 20-day, 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages, with MACD momentum still positive. Benzinga Pro data showed the shares down 5.37% at $116.39 at publication.
