Jon, the fortunes of INTC (leader in Chip making) and AMAT (leader in Chip Equipment making) are pretty much intertwined. Set the comparison graph linked below to 100 months and you can see that AMAT (the smaller company who depends on the fortune of the bigger company) outperforms INTC during Bull market years and underperforms during Bear market years.
