Kirk. Brinker. I guess you read that I was told that he was disappointed that 4 cents of the 98 cents came from a lower tax rate, which leaves us still up 4 cents from consensus of course.

Let's face it. Margins are a very poor excuse for him to sell. I think the margins were actually a surprise. I expected lower margins. Intel has given guidance ad nauseumn that margins will get lower and will evtl. hit 50% give or take. If I know that, Bob Brinker knew that before he bought at 69. But he did say it was a trading stock. So, that's what he is doing. But let's not blame it on margins or taxes. The fact remains: Intel came in better than consensus. Tax or no tax, margins or no margins.
Is everyone going to oblige him and sell so he can pick it up cheap again? I am holding. Like I said in an earlier post. It is not that we are not in a bull market it's just that there is more trading now. I personally have no intention of calling. I am not so sure that he has that Crystal ball we are all yearning for.

Sonny

P.S. I just read your links. Looks like I am not the only one wondering about that Crystal ball.
