From www.earningswhisper.com: Despite last quarter's negative earnings surprise, analysts are once again expecting Intel (INTC) to report earnings slightly ahead of the consensus estimates when the company reports after the market close on Tuesday. Shortly after Intel's last earnings report, a few analysts started lowering their expectations for the quarter, but the consensus estimate remained around $0.56 per share for several weeks. Then Barron's gave a less than favorable story about the company last week and pushed the analysts to start commenting in defense of the company. One analyst said that the Barron's article was "mostly fiction" while others said there was nothing new in the article. The consensus estimate increased a penny to $0.57 as the new reports were issued. Still, the consensus estimate appears to be held low by analysts like Kenneth Pearlman at CIBC World Markets, whose estimate of $0.53 is at the bottom of the pack. Most analysts have estimates of around $0.59, citing strong unit growth and market share gains during the quarter. Many of the analysts with estimates below $0.59 have told their clients that Intel will exceed their estimates. The top estimate is $0.61 and the Earnings Whisper number is $0.60 on $7.3 billion in revenues due to unit growth "well above historical trends" as U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray said in their research report last week. Other analysts have said that the semiconductor demand is the best it has been in several years and David Wu at ABN-AMRO reportedly told clients that the only surprise will be if Intel doesn't beat the estimates. However, analysts won't be focusing on earnings or even revenues this quarter, but rather CFO Andy Bryant's comments about the Taiwan earthquake's effects on fourth quarter earnings. You may listen to Intel's conference call beginning at 5:30 PM EST on Tuesday at nasdaq-amex.com`&selected=INTC`

Tony -OTOTOTOTOTOT "On Buckner, what most don't point out is that the game was already tied when he booted the ball, so they would have had to go to the next inning, being on the road, even if he fielded it cleanly." Tony, even if Buckner had fielded that ball cleanly, he would never have beaten Mookie Wilson to first. Joe
