Re: You should look at the items labeled "Net Investment"

Why? It has nothing to do with current investment.

Look it up - it's an accounting fiction. A judgment call like the one that rated subprime mortgage bonds AAA.

I posted what they spent each year, not some accounting BS that's done mainly for tax purposes.

If you really want to do it right, expand what I did into quarterly figures. Then lag the data by 6 to 9 months. I'd really be interested in what turns up - and so will the anti-trust lawyers on both sides. Lead time for FABs and equipment is longer but Intel has a pretty good idea of how AMD's doing about 6 months before SEC filings are made. Run an ARIMA on the series and see what turns up.
