Intel's Anti-Trust Woes

I HAVE A LONG POSITION ON INTC AND HAVE OWNED THE STOCK FOR MORE THAN 10 YEARS WITH ALL THAT IMPLIES WITH SPLITS, ETC.

INTC IS ONE MY PRIME POSITIONS FOR THE OPTIONS MARKET POSITIONS. THE TIME VALUE OF COVERED CALLS, WITH THE ADDED INTC DIVIDEND, HAS RETURNED A 14 PERCENT YEARLY GAIN. USING THE RULE OF 72 ONE CAN SEE THAT IT HAS BEEN VERY STABLE AND REWARDING FOR MY PORTFOLIO.

I AM ALSO AN ELECTRICAL ENGINEER AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE COMPANY ON AN ONGOING BASIS. I HAVE ENJOYED MY RELATIONSHIP AND DEALINGS WITH THE COMPANY AND ITS PEOPLE. WHY? YOU ASK! ANSWER: THE PLAYERS AT INTC HAVE A BRAIN AND THE ABILITY TO USE IT. ALSO, IN MY OPINION, THE TOTAL PRODUCT LINE IS FAR SUPERIOR TO THAT OF AMD.

I DO NOT WANT AMD TO BE ELIMINATED FROM THE SCEEN. COMPETITION IS GOOD.

HOWEVER, NO AMD FOR THIS ENGINEER.......IT'S INTC WORTS AND ALL.

A Closer Look at Recent Upbeat Earnings Announcements - Don’t Believe the Hype

AS AN INVESTOR WHO IS LONG INTC, I FOUND THIS ARTICLE, FROM MR KIM'S POINT OF VIEW, VERY INTERESTING. I, HOWEVER, DO NOT DEPEND ON ORGANIC GROWTH FROM MY POSITIONS. I, INSTEAD, USE THE POWER OF OPTIONS. THE CALL PREMIUM TRUMPS THE POSIBILITY OF ORGANIC GROWTH OF ANY SHARE THE I HAVE IN A LONG POSITION. WITH INTC, THERE IS ALSO A 2.6% DIVIDEND PAID QUARTERLY. I RECEIVE ENOUGH DIVIDEND TO HAVE A $2,000.00/MONTH CASH FLOW. MY POSITION IN THIS PORTFOLIO WITH INTC IS ONLY 2% OF ITS TOTAL VALUE. THIS LEAVES A GREAT DEAL OF SHARES OF OTHER COMPANIES TO SELL COVERED CALLS AND LET THE PREMIUM BUILD UP. THE YEARLY OBJECTIVE IS TO HAVE A 14.4% RETURN ON CAPITAL VALUE. USING THE RULE OF 72, THE PORTFOLIO DOUBLES IN 5 YEARS. THIS INVESTING SYSTEM GIVES ME THE SECURITY THAT I WILL NEED IN RETIREMENT. IT HAS BEEN, HOWEVER, A LONG PROCESS OF FINANCIAL EDUCATION. I DIRECT THIS LITTLE LESSON OF MY FINANCIAL HEALTH RESPECTFULLY TO ALL OF THOSE HAND RINGERS WHO ARE PAYING ATTENTION TO THE NOISE ON THE VARIOUS MEDIA SOURCES.

THANK YOU FOR THIS RESPONSE FORUM!
