Paul, Thread: I've a general question but I'm asking it as an investor who is long INTC:

What percentage of your portfolio is in cash right now?

I'd appreciate any one answering that doesn't mind the personal question. Thanks in advance. dmf

BTW We divide management of portfolios at our house and I'm in charge of two portfolios that account for a little more than 40% of our total investments. For the record, one portfolio is 8.8% cash and the other is 5.1% cash at this time.

Re: "It appears that AMD has rapidly reached DEMAND constraint for the AthWiper."

And this may contribute to the ongoing delay fo Dresden. Who's gonna buy them if they make more?

Paul, Re: It appears that AMD has rapidly reached DEMAND constraint for the AthWiper.

Do you think 2000 will be a profitable year for AMD ?
While the result seems to be terrific for Q499, there is
something puzzling.

As you have noticed, they cannot sell all the Athlon they can make despite of the demand(looks at the scarcity for Cumine). If we take the words of Intel's management as well as PB, Cumine is still ramping nicely. It could be quite possible that by early Q2, the supply/demand equation will be reversed with lots of Cumine flooding the market.

I am itching to buy some LEAPS PUT for AMD and hoping it will drop back to the 20s sometimes in Q3/Q4.

Judging from the Q4 1998 and Q4 1999 result, it seems that AMD can only make profit when Intel has problem suppling enough CPUs to the market.
