Elmer, re: "Paul, I realize this is just speculation at this point but if this were to happen, how would it work?"

Excuse me for butting in. Generally, the assets would first be separated from the company, with new corporate officers, etc. Then there would be an IPO, of say 20% of the shares in the NEW company. Within a year, the remainder of the shares would be distributed to Intel stockholders.

Intel shareholders would benefit at the IPO, note the appreciation of HWP shares when the Aligent IPO took place (even though the shares haven't been distributed to date).

Intel just issues a NEW STOCK whose "value" is tied to Intel's investment portfolio.

It's almost like creating money from nothing.

Every shareholder will get a per cent of the issued stock, based on her/his Intel shares.

Then, the "market" determines the value of the new tracking stock.
