Will real estate next to their fabs be the next thing to plunge? There are going to be many unemployed engineers in a concentrated area with minimal transferable skills to local companies outside of the fab.

The fabs will probably keep being used for a long time to come, even if Intel exits. There's a large market even for non-cutting-edge nodes.

Plenty of stuff to make that’s not on the cutting edge.
