Intel is absolutely not finished. Sure, in some filter bubbles, AMD has won and the remaining share is eaten by ARM, but take a look at the bigger picture: If you're buying a server, Ryzen/EPIC-Servers are just appearing right now. The dell server line-up [0] is still mostly Intel-Servers, with one novelty AMD server per category. I bought a laptop this summer and most offerings - by far! - are Intel, especially in the ultrabook category. In the gaming scene, AMD has its fans, but raw single-core performance is still important and quite a few people still choose Intel. Lastly, your average consumer really doesn't even know the difference. ARM could be a threat, but the low adoption of Windows ARM and ARM servers shows that this yet to realize. Additionally, the recent publicity stunts from Intel also clearly show that they see the upcoming threat and are reacting to it. And even if they don't, long lasting contracts and sheer inertia will keep them above the water for quite a few years to come. In summary, yes, Intel is not in a great position, but it is far from dead. And if you're attempting to short it now, there's a good chance Intel will stay liquid for longer than you.
