Intel CEO Brian Krzanich claimed the “impressive rally” in technology stocks has nothing to do with President Donald Trump during a conference this week. “I don’t believe, especially when you look at the technology stocks, people look at government or politics as to how they value us,” declared Krzanich on Tuesday at the Web Summit Technology Conference in Lisbon, Portugal. According to CNBC, Krzanich “said investors were more likely to focus on profit and revenue growth instead,” and “while Intel’s CEO insisted he was a technologist — and not an economist — he said products, growth and the amount of innovation within the sector would continue to support technology stocks ‘more than anything in politics.’” Breitbart News’ John Carney reported Tuesday that the Dow Jones Industrial Average has risen 29 percent since Donald Trump was elected president, “the best post-election, one-year performance for a first-term president since Franklin Roosevelt’s in 1932.” On Friday, the Associated Press reported that the S&P 500 closed at a record high for eight straight weeks of gains. Krzanich worked with President Trump on the now-defunct American Manufacturing Council before leaving in protest following the violence at the Charlottesville protests.
