Tony,

I really think that the Transmeta story and AMD's earnings hit INTC yesterday and continued today. I use the chart to decide when to buy and sell and yesterday sold out when INTC looked like it wasn't going to hold out above 100 1/2.

A trip back above that level would get me back in, as would a bounce around the 89 1/2 mark.

Taking a 3 month & longer view I am very bullish on INTC and I can't believe how overvalued AMD is ! The post from Burt that Tench picked up on is spot on. It was a number of bad breaks for Intel (that weren't actually that bad). Similarly, AMD made a profit purely from Intel being unable to satisfy the huge demand for a product that Intel invented. Now that Intel has ramped, the Athlon profits are history.

I think a long INTC position combined with a short AMD position is a good bet and a good hedge against a market meltdown. Of course you would have to factor in any potential AMD profits from comms and flash but I reckon the MP losses will more than wipe them out considering Athlon investment costs.
