There weren't any new high-tech IPOs in the last two quarters - so even if new unrealized gains get added due to any new IPOs in the near future. Intel won't be able to use those gain in time due to restrictions on preIPO participants. goutama, I see what you mean. Thanks. ted

Goutama, Thanks for that Intel capital gains analysis. Because of recent market decline, the amassed unrealized gains shrunk at a faster rate than Intel anticipated. Now, the existing amount of unrealized gains may last only till Q2'01 at the current rate of consumption. There is a strong possibility that a spring-time bull market might extend the life of their golden goose. I'm expecting that the tech stocks will turn up strongly at the beginning of the year. I imagine that the managers of Intel's Capital Group are expecting that as well. The market isn't supposed to do well in the first year of a new president's term, but this year hasn't exactly followed the standard script for presidential election years. Dave
