Dan, while you're patting Tad LaFountain on the back for his INTC call, you should also see what he said about AMD around the same time: zdnet.co.uk *"At $15 [pre-split], you gotta have AMD," said LaFountain. "At $65, you should buy it. At $105 you should hold it. And at $145 you should allow someone else have the privilege of holding it."* AMD was trading at around $30 to $40 (adjusted for split) back then when LaFountain was saying "buy it." Where is AMD now, Dan? Tenchusatsu

Lewinsky-Dan - Here's another great call by Needham - a STRONG BUY on AMD - when AMD was at $72.50 (Pre-split) !! So all the suckers that listened to Needham and bought AMD at that time have seen their investment drop from $36.25 to $14 !!! That's a 61% drop - thank you NeedHELPham !

Shares of Sunnyvale, Calif.-based Advanced Micro recently crossed between investors at $72.50, higher by $1.50 intraday, however, well off of the 52-week high of $97.00 achieved on June 5. "Management indicated to us late-Friday that it has excellent visibility and continues to see very strong flash memory market conditions at least through the end of 2001," Scovel said in a research note. The analyst, who has a $115 target on the stock, said overall bookings for Advanced Micro continue to remain very strong, with flash memory, K6-2 and Duron microprocessors nearly booked to capacity. Scovel maintained his 2000 revenue and earnings estimates at $4.95 billion and $5.14, respectively. {=====================================}
