Intel: Buy on the weakness

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (CBS.MW) -- Clueless investors didn't heed
analysts' advice Wednesday to take advantage of weakness in Intel's
stock following its stronger-than-expected earnings.

Intel shares came under pressure amid concerns
about its capacity not keeping pace with product demand. See full story.

Robertson Stephens analysts Dan Niles and Arnab Chanda said in a
research note that the stock's softness should be used to "accumulate
shares," yet investors aren't biting. What gives?

Intel (INTC: news, msgs) was off 8 to 121 in recent trading. Its shares are
off 16 percent from an all-time high of 145 3/8 set on March 22. The
decline in the shares may provide a solid platform for investors to buy into
the technology leader.

"They're going to make a lot of money in the back half of the year, so
we're very bullish on the stock," Niles said. He added that, with some of
the big tech names, investors should take a look at the fundamentals when
shares are down a bit and "not when (a stock is) at its 52-week high."

Additionally, as analyst Erika Klauer at Deutsche Banc Alex. Brown
wrote in a research note: "Quarterly results would have been even higher if
the company had more capacity to take advantage of unseasonably strong
demand." Klauer remains optimistic on the chipmaker's outlook, and she
raised her price target on Intel shares to $167.

Maybe it's time for investors to clue in and buy shares of the world's
largest chipmaker -- before the analysts' price targets are hit.
