I have spent a lot of time in Dublin Ohio a suburb of Columbus.
Ohio is centrally located in the lower 48 states and many logistcis firms exist there.
Real estate costs are low with lots of land stretching out all four ways (no oceans, gulfs or great lakes getting in the way of suburban sprawl.
Winters do give you all four seasons , but they are very moderate.
It is a very nice place to live, with much of the growth new and clean looking.
Lastly the Midwestern worker has an excellent work ethic and there is a large population of college grads available for hiring.
There is a good base of highly trained computer experts as Reynolds and Reynolds is headquartered in Dayton along with other programer type companies.
Last but not least the politics is very conservative. No tax crazy politicians promising everything for free, no street dweller existence, and lastly NOT a lawless place with deranged attorney generals.
They live within their conservative laws and will stay that way.
Administration
Mike DeWine’s story is a true Ohio story. Raised in Yellow Springs, Ohio, Mike DeWine and Fran (Struewing) met in the first grade and married while students at Miami University. They’ve been blessed with eight children and 26 grandchildren. Family is at the core of everything Mike DeWine does, and that’s why he has devoted his life to fighting for Ohio’s families. He knows when families are strong, Ohio communities are stronger, and our future is bright.
Vision for the FutureMike DeWine loves Ohio and cares passionately about our state’s future. He will fight for an Ohio that works for everyone – every person and every family in every corner of our state. From world class cities to some of the best small towns in America, Mike DeWine knows that to build our state into an economic powerhouse, we must have strong schools, a great quality of life, and compassion for those who need our help.
Ohio ValuesMike DeWine’s family started a seed company in Yellow Springs. Working alongside his parents and grandparents, Mike learned early the value of hard work, strong leadership, and fiscal responsibility.
Growing up, he loaded seed bags onto trucks and boxcars, shoveled wheat out of trucks during harvest, worked in wheat fields to help ensure the purity of the seed, and basically did whatever it took to get the job done for their customers. Inseparable to the end, his parents were married for 65 years and died within four days of each other. The values he learned from them still live within him today.
A Lifetime of ServiceOn November 6, 2018, Mike DeWine was elected to serve as the 70th Governor of the State of Ohio. The Governor has had a long and distinguished career in public service, focusing on protecting Ohio children and families. He was previously the 50th Attorney General of Ohio and has previously been elected to serve as Greene County Prosecutor, Ohio State Senator, U.S. Congressman, Ohio Lt. Governor, U.S. Senator.
Last but not least Ohio is the home of the SUPER BOWL CAMPIONS. I attended the Packer vs Bengal football game this fall and Cincinnati was a surprisingly clean and very nice city with very safe down towns at night.

I too think it is a great move to build and expand in an area that is conservative and low on expenses. |

NVDA $454B
AVGO $216B
TXN $164B
QCOM $163B
AMD $153B
All above INTC at $149B
All from most recent Reuters/Verus Market Cap figures. Only $4B below AMD, at least so far, as of their August 5th data.
And, two of the above, at least, are “dry fabs.” No benefit whatsoever from investment tax credits from the Chips Act. Nice way to address what truly was and is necessary for US national security: More onshore fabs.
And, INTC will get a whopping share, but not AMD nor QCOM.

Might as well throw more Chinese money at something we need... Our government is basically bankrupt anyway. The people that lent them money are the losers... Fiat currency is about to crack. .223 rounds hitting a buck a pop some day soon. |

Disney Corp. might be a view into Intel's future. Woke companies never seem to change course, they double down into self destruction.
They should have some nuts and go crazy with a new RISC V design. |

To: FJB who wrote (186854) | 8/6/2022 1:25:21 PM | From: 60HzEE | | | I rather doubt that INTC is another IBM, let alone a cartoon company on steroids. It has plenty of patents and developments to outshine dry fabs, albeit down the road. Did Pelosi's trip wake up anyone here to the vulnerability of offshore manufacturing? If not, it should have.
Perhaps what you said is more applicable to VC firms these days. I won't mention any popular Valley names, but their batting averages haven't been so good, lately.
We just are getting away from the massive damage done by a former, bigoted national leader who wanted to and did scare plenty of very talented folks away from America's promise. Hopefully, that damage will be fixed and the perpetrator will very soon wear orange. And no, not orange face paint. |

Andy Grove would not have let it get to this point. He is spinning at 10,000 rpm in his grave at what happened. |

To: FJB who wrote (186856) | 8/6/2022 2:37:15 PM | From: waitwatchwander | | | Many have failed chasing the wireless dream. It's tough as is reducing process node. Power, performance is most complex especially when playing it out in digital and analog nodes. Optimization across the boundaries of one's domain matters.
AMD, Apple, Samsung, TI, GF all played around Intel. Non have yet to fully succeed either. They too have their moments, coming and going.
TSMC did their thing really well, focused and working with the best of the best Intel collected baggage. |

Intel's failure was one of culture. WOKE == BROKE
Shemales are notoriously bad at engineering. lol |
