Intel has been atrociously managed. If you invested $1 in Intel in 1998, your investment would still be worth $1. Less than that if you adjust for inflation.

What about the dividend payouts?

Looks like they’ve been paying out healthy dividends for about ten years now https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/stocks/intc/dividend-...

They also had a stock split in 2000, and I’m not sure the parent comment is accounting for that.

The dividend was cancelled (stopped) recently.

I think it's not relevant to the original point

I am unpersuaded Intel could have done anything once they failed to get any sort of traction in phones or tablets.

AMD starting to execute properly only made their headaches that much worse, but they had been far too fat for too long.
