Actually INTC is up at the moment. But the main reason that INTC stock is down the last few weeks is because they did not report the kind of earnings that they said just mere weeks before that they were going to report. Heck they even forgot to warn before they reported. I'm not sure they even leaked the possibility that things were going worse than expected to analysts and institutional investors. The stock is still selling at high volume but slowing. It may not rise substantially until that volume of selling slows a lot more. investorshub.com But not being more open with guidance and earnings slowdowns may be one reason why they are getting more downgrades now. Whether these downgrades are deserved is certainly questionable. Just as the upgrades prior to earnings turned out to be wrong these may be wrong too. Certainly given enough time your recent purchases on INTC will be profitable. Hopefully you are not at any great risk due to margin. Best of luck with your INTC holdings. RtS

Sarmad when choosing dogs it is never helpful to kick one. I prefer to first see if the tail is wagging, count their legs, look at their teeth.

INTC provided that with the change in marketing/product strategy. Throw the "Inventory" and "Fundamentals" and the Technicals...TA..out the window. INTC will stabilize when there are signs of traction in the new strategy. I doubt the inhabitants of the Ivory Tower realized the off the cliff reaction by the MFs given the success of the "Intel Inside" campaign. Later, S
