One could easily flip that question around right? "Why would Intel try to sell fab services like Global Foundry which didn't work out well?"

But more importantly, Intel actually has way more foundry expertise than Global did/does. In the case of AMD selling off Global it was more like cutting loose an under performing part of the company rather than empowering the a significant asset of the company.
