This is good...get this long rumored INTC "warning" out of the way. It is so long rumored and the PC sector so devastated..all of anything they say is already discounted..so get it out of the way and let's get on the way.

INTC expects Q4 sequentially flat
they had forecast previously up 4-8% for the qtr
margins expected to hold at 60%

heck, INTC went from 35 to 31 on these rumors this week
ok, no need to build it in twice

also Three Five Systems warns

Watching the closing arguments in Seminole county makes my knee want to jerk.

This is an attempt to throw out 15,000 ballots..... for the want of an ID# on a batch of ballot forms..... due to a process error..... and the correction of the error..... no more, no less.

Analysts must disclose conflicts

WASHINGTON (CBS.MW) -- Stock analysts will have to disclose their financial interests in the stocks they tout on TV and in other public appearances, the National Association of Security Dealers has decided.



The NASD board endorsed a rule Thursday that would require employees of its member firms and registered investment advisers to disclose potential conflicts of interest during scheduled public appearances.

The NASD said it would work with the federal Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Stock Exchange to develop a common rule.

"It is important for investors to have confidence that a recommendation made by an analyst, or other financial services professional, is based solely on the merits of the investment and not that person's financial interest," said the NASD's chief executive, Robert R. Glauber.

"Knowing whether an analyst''s employer underwrote a recommended stock or whether his or her firm has a significant position in a recommended stock is important information," said Arthur Levitt, chairman of the SEC. "Investors deserve to know what possible incentives an investment services professional may have in making a particular recommendation."
