On FCF valuation of Intel: Andrew and Pirah, the Telescan Pro-Search indicator for Free Cash Flow per Share is still on the fritz. But I do have FCF numbers on old searches I made using Telescan. According to an August 7th search, Telescan gives Intel $3.40 of free cash flow per share, which places Intel in the 92nd percentile of all stocks in the Telescan data base (which includes almost all the stocks out there).That is actually a better FCF showing than it looks, because the data base includes all those financial companies that by their very nature have high free cash flow. We are talking "here and now" free cash flow per share, of course; Telescan does not provide any projections. How does that number fit with your figures? As for the price/free cash flow ratio, I have to confess (gulp! gulp!) that I don't know how to calculate it! I've tried, but I am doing something VERY WRONG. Be a pal, somebody, and give me a little guidance here. Thank you! By the way, an August 6th Telescan search gives Compaq $5.40 of free cash flow per share, which places it way up there in the 94th percentile. Well? Any comments?
