GVTucker, great posting! It's thoughts like yours, unpopular as they are (you know better than I do, if you have not lost counts of oppositions or "flames" you've got), that make SI valuable and a level above most of online investment forums. I've said before and I'll say as many times as I could, that if you can not see the other side of the coin, you must be doing something wrong. Fall in love with a stock is a terrible mistake, no matter how lovable it/he/she is. Love is blind, they say?
That said, there are times when people in love do not like to see negative comments about their lovers (and some even willing to die with their loved ones). That's totally heroic to say the least. On Kurlak end, I think you are right that he's doing his job right. The view he (you and many others) share might be different to the rest. So are the terms, short, intermediate or long. There are investors, there ar traders. Those who "hate" Kurlak tend to long INTC and willing to go through the ups and downs, mostly by faith (in part due to love). They could view his opinions as "hostile" and attempts to create instabilities/fluctuations in the stock price. Other just wisely ignore his comments, even though it might "drag" INTC "temporily" down or predict short term down trend. I thought people on both side of the trade should be thankful to his views and analysis, just like yours, as it helps to ring the bell and shed lights down the road. Heck, you can even utilize his clouds to rake in a few bucks playing some option strategies on the side, whether you are extremely bullish, or bearish or neutral, whether you are short, medium or long term.
Enough of my nonsense, what I am trying to say to you via this public forum is: thanks.
