Agreed. Pretty solid results considering the overall market and what not...

I expect this Quarter to be mild as well, but once October hits, and Xmas hits the horizon, Intel should have a break out year I think... I think to many people have counted INTC out of the tablet market, I think that ARMH shot across the bow just woke them up...

Looking forward to the INTC fueled Surface Tablet!

PS I think the rest of the world agrees I'm showing INTC up almost 1.5% AH

Geez ... I wish I got paid today. I could have bought under $25 when the scared jumpy traders unloaded. Oh well. They will keep freaking out over nothing and I'll keep accumulating and building for the future:)

Too many people still bullish on stocks... most weak shorts have been shaken out, just a few more left. Intel is a great company, but no company will escape the fury of the markets. If S&P breaks 1400, I will admit I'm wrong, but I wouldn't be a strong buyer of stocks right now until the market demonstrates reasonability--good volume and step-ladder style base building.

Do you mean buyer as opposed to owner?

INTC is a best of breed, but when markets decline, Intel will not be spared either.

Honestly, I invite market declines. I really do feel for long traders when the market tanks ... I have a friend who's a trader and he's been cautious with the market recently ... but, as for me, I'm long term. I have a 30 year scope. My goal is not to sell, rather add to fundamentally strong companies. Short term movements mean very little to me now except for being buying opportunities. Tune out noise, be smart, be patient ... at least that's what I try to do:)

I guess those $25 & 24 puts I sold last week won't come home to roost. I thought I might get to own INTC a little cheaper. I wonder how many years it will take for people to realize that just because AMD has a lousy quarter that INTC won't follow suit.

And I am OK with that. When I sold the recent puts I determined that I was fine with owning INTC under $25 on July 21 and under $24 in Aug. I normally stay on the sidelines for the first couple of weeks of earning season.

The stock is flat now. That's cool. We won't know the real deal until after the conference call

This is about as good as anyone could have reasonably hoped for considering the state of the world economy and tech in general. The last 1/3rd of the year will see great gains for the semi-conductors as a whole. We should see a strong Christmas season for tech, and the new tablets from Microsoft and Asus (along with Iphone 5) should really help things along. Anyone who gets in right now is set to make a nice penny. This being said, the big pop will not come until after the summer when we really start seeing all of these new products in action.
