Intel Stockpiling 10nm Chips

In its earnings conference call, Intel has warned that chip shortages are set to continue into the third quarter of the year, However, the company has also said that its 10nm manufacturing process is improving faster than anticipated and that it will be able to sell more 10nm chips this year than previously predicted. So great is the demand for 14nm manufacturing capacity that in some areas the company has even had to go backwards. These moves both enable the company to use its limited 14nm manufacturing capacity for chips with a higher margin than these chipsets.
