Intel – IT industry’s locomotive

Tech giant Intel tops the list of the leading companies in the electronics and hardware market. Economists project this sector to expand by 5% in 2021. Shares of the US microprocessor maker lost 20% last year as Apple dumped Intel processors. The company’s success depends greatly on its leader. Therefore, experts believe that Intel’s new CEO, Patrick Gelsinger, will breathe new life into the technology company. Gelsinger is a public figure, personal development coach, and architect of the 486 processor. He made people forget about the company’s sell-off and helped raise Intel to unprecedented heights. According to preliminary forecasts, Intel shares will rise by 16% to $67 per share by the end of 2021.

Allegro MicroSystems – niche market leader

In October 2020, when Allegro MicroSystems went public, its shares traded at a price range of $12– $14 each. Later, the price rose to $29.4 per share.

It invested over a quarter of a billion dollars in T-Mobile. From Buffett’s point of view, the B2B segment offers a lot of prospects for long-term investments. The value of T-Mobile shares soared by 56% in a year, while its market capitalization exceeded $153 billion.
