Re: Funny how paul and sisters consider the 67 point rise in iNtEl greater than the 40 point runup in AMD.

Let me explain this to you. When your basis is $4 a share, a $67 move is a 1,675% gain on your investment. A $67 gain makes a 20 bagger turn into a 35 bagger.

When your basis is pennies a share, like Paul's is, you need exponential notation to describe your gain.

When you get a 20 bagger in AMD, come back and talk some more smack.
