Trump is scaring entrepreneurs and managers and putting an end to capitalism: after Intel, he wants more government investments in US companies.

American entrepreneurs and managers disagree with Donald Trump's plan to continue investing in healthy American companies after announcing a 10% US government stake in the chip company Intel . Intel's move is essentially a conversion of government subsidies into an equity stake. Intel is certainly in trouble, but it could manage on its own, given that it still has $9 billion in cash and a market value of $105 billion.

And so, according to some analysts, the administration's approach is particularly different from that of the free market on which the US economy is based, where the government has taken corporate stakes only in emergencies such as during the 2008 financial crisis and the bailout of US auto companies.

Critics therefore argue that the move regarding Intel and the White House's all-out pressure to get the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates, as well as the imposition of tariffs on imported goods , threatens the flexibility of the business community. "We're moving from a purely capitalist economy to one where the government is much more involved. This is a huge shift for America," said Bill George, former CEO of Medtronic and professor at Harvard Business School. However, Trump persists, reiterating on Social Truth: "I will continue to make deals like this for our country."

With the agreement, Intel will convert government subsidies into equity totaling approximately $9 billion to build or expand its factories in the US . Before the agreement with the government early last week, Japan's SoftBank had acquired a $2 billion stake in Intel. Intel shares rose 23.7% in three months, but over the past five years, their value has practically halved. This performance contrasts with that of rival Nvidia, which, focusing on artificial intelligence chips, has increased its market value tenfold on Wall Street and now rivals giants like Apple and Microsoft in market capitalization.
