Patrick, Maybe they need a few cents (of earnings) up their sleeves for the 4th quarter? Quote from the earnings release: "Intel Corp. said it expects revenue for the fourth quarter of 1997 to be slightly up from third quarter revenue of $6.2 billion." Quick analysis: Revenue 3Q/96 5.14B, earnings 74c Revenue 4Q/96 6.44B, earnings $1.07 Revenue 3Q/97 6.2B, earnings 88c Revenue 4Q/97 slight up from 3Q = 6.4B?, earnings ?? Thus, little revenue growth from 3Q/97 to 4Q/97, compared to 25% from 3Q/96 to 4Q/96. This means Intel will have to really squeeze everything to improve earnings margins to beat 4Q/96 earnings of $1.07. Prognosis: Tough quarter ahead?? Just my two cents worth, Steve. PS I am long on Intel, but I buy to accumulate l.t.
