Re "Banks and venture capital firms tend to have lower P/Es then semi-conductor firms. Should Intel be valued with a typical P/E of a bank? Maybe its a really good bank so we give it a higher P/E say 20..." Sure. Intel earned $2.34 BILLION from banking activities last quarter - so lets assume a good upside of say $4 BILLION/year earnings from banking activites. After taxes, that comes to $2.8 Billion in earnings, or $2.8 Billion/3.5 Billion shares = $0.80/share At 20X EPS, that should ADD $16 to Intel's stock !!! Paul
