This can go exactly Two ways.

  1. The Us government says it is national interest to keep chip manufacturing owned by Americans.

  2. The Us government says we understand this will create a monopoly but we won’t stawp, due to the rise of Chinese chip manufacturing.

But make no mistake this is not intel’s or Qualcomm’s decision and it has nothing to do with what either company needs it is entirely up to the Us government.

I don't see how 1 is relevant, since both Intel and Qualcomm are American companies
