>>In the real world, you can't make trades in the past. Tomorrow, do you short AMD and buy Intel?<<

No, you can't make trades in the past, but you can sure learn from long experience. I will stick with a winner until it stops winning. Intel certainly hasn't stopped winning, Athlon or no.
I would not short AMD tomorrow. Since I have been tracking AMD, it has gone into the 30's a couple times before falling back to the mid-teens. It may well be poised for another of those moves. Would I buy Intel tomorrow? Absolutely if I did not already own 2000 shares. It has about the amount of weight in my portfolio that a conservative guy like me is comfortable with. If it re-tests 65, I may sell something else to get some more.
