<edited>Hi Tim - Thanks. 1st thing 1st :), why did you think VP Gore lost all 3 cases yesterday?

INTC warning of a flat Q is better than expectation would be the ideal possibility. While there is no blowoff, this latest downturn has been a protracted one, so maybe there is a chance there is no need of a climactic capitulation. Not that Zeev would buy such a wishy-washy notion <VBG>!

<edited> Maybe these two pieces of news from CBS MW are related

INTC: sell rumor, buy fact?
--9:20 am - By Tomi Kilgore
Intel (INTC: news, msgs) is climbing $2.38, or 7.4 percent, to $34.69 in
pre-market trading. Late Thursday, the chip industry bellwether said revenue
for the quarter is expected to be flat with the sequential third-quarter number
of $8.7 billion, blaming slowing demand for personal computers for the
expected shortfall. Intel's previous outlook for the fourth quarter called for a
sequential increase in sales of 4 percent to 8 percent. "I don't think it comes
as a huge surprise to the market that there are still problems here," said Joe
Moore, an analyst with Goldman Sachs. During Thursday's regular trading
session, the stock edged up 56 cents to $32.31. On Wednesday, the stock
hit a new 52-week low of $31.25, which was 59 percent below its high set
in late August. A high-profile warning from tech-heavyweight Motorola
(MOT: news, msgs) sent the stock down as much as $2, or 11 percent in
intraday trading on Thursday, but the stock closed down just 6 cents at
$17.75.

Funds investing primarily in U.S. equities had inflows of $4.6 billion during
the week ended Dec. 6, estimates Carl Wittnebert, director of research at
Trim Tabs. That compares with inflows of $100 million in the previous week.
The S&P 500 index ($SPX: news, msgs) rose 0.7 percent during the Nov. 6
week, after rising 1.5 percent the prior week. Bond funds lost $400 million,
after taking in $100 million the week before.
