On Monday, March 16, the stock markets fell 12%, the biggest sell off since 1987, and largest point drop for the Dow Jones of all time. A rapidly increasing number of Coronavirus cases worldwide has caused mounting concerns of a global economic slowdown.

Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) stock fell 18% on Monday and is down by a total of almost 30% since early February, considering the impact that the outbreak and a broader economic slowdown could have on the chipset and processor manufacturing industry.
However, going by the trends seen during the 2008 economic slowdown, it’s likely that Intel’s stock could bounce back strongly and potentially outperform the market as the crisis winds down.
