Dave,

Here's a release out of Bloomberg's.

The only stocks that I have up today are CC and FRONY, an oil shipper. Definitely a bad day.....my broker stocks, LEH and MWD, are getting killed....I did not move my stop loss limits up and have lost most of the profits I had made in those stocks. :~((

EDIT. SCMR is positive as well.

Intel Takes Steps to Cut Costs, Including Delaying Raises


Santa Clara, California, Feb. 20 (Bloomberg) -- Intel Corp. said it will cut expenses by ``several hundred million dollars'' this year as economic growth slows and demand for the No. 1 chipmaker's products wanes, spokesman Tom Beermann said.

The company deferred raises to senior managers until October from April. It will limit hiring and cut its workforce through attrition, Beermann said. Intel Chief Executive Craig Barrett told employees of the measures in an e-mail this morning.

Santa Clara, California-based Intel will also cut discretionary spending, including travel and overtime, by 30 percent this year, he said. Its attrition rate is usually less than 10 percent.

Intel shares fell $2 to $32.38 in midafternoon trading. They've lost 39 percent of their value in the past 12 months.
