minnow68, Ted and Dan3, > If I were Intel, I would be scared silly of AMD getting a high stock price. Let's assume Wall street falls in love with AMD and in six months AMD is trading between 900-1000 per share. AMD could issue 2 million new shares (only about 1% dilution), and quick as you can say "BAM!" AMD is taking the wrapping paper off a brand new fab. A high share price gives a company interest free access to capital. > Thanks for your input on this subject. I believe, free access to capital is the most important aspect of it that makes Intel more worried about the raising AMD share price. Another question I have is, is there any effect on Intel CPU sales due to its sheer number of outstanding shares? IMHO (based on my experience), it can easily amount to a couple of millions of CPUS if not more pushed by Intel stock holders that are pervasive in the corporate sector. Any comments?
