Fudzilla predicted Intel’s next CEO in Oct 2018
 

Bob Swan it is

Intel has just announced that Robert (Bob) Swan, its current interim CEO, is the new CEO of the company. After a rather long search that's lastest since the departure of Brian Krzanich, the board has approved Swan as the permanent CEO position.

Back in early October 2018, yours truly said that Bob is the most serious candidate despite the fact that all main media dropped him as a candidate. People focused on other candidates, but Bob wanted the job and finally got it.

He was leading Intel after Krzanich got fired for a consensual relationship that was against Intel’s policy. Bob did say that he was not after the CEO job, but people mostly do that to stop press pestering them. He's been onthe board of Intel since late June and it looks like he did a good job. Intel is still on quite a good course with the hope that 10nm will ship in holiday season 2019. Bob and the rest of the 107,000 people at Intel really need this.
