Joey, INCREDIBLE

Talk about bad reporting. They reported this at about 3:00 pm. I think intc was already in low 80's by then. What a bunch of bozos at CNBC.

Intel Says Buyback Not Likely Immediately After DEC Pact

NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Intel Corp. (INTC) typically doesn't buy back
stock immediately after big announcements, such as the legal settlement with
Digital Equipment Corp. (DEC) that was announced Monday, a spokesman
said.

CNBC reported Tuesday afternoon that Intel would begin buying back its
shares Wednesday. Intel spokesman Tom Waldrop said he couldn't forecast
when the company would buy its stock back in the current quarter.

But he did say the company is "not likely to be buying back shares immediately
after the announcement with Digital."

He said the company usually waits for a "couple of days" after an
announcement to avoid "the possible perception that it was a material event."

Waldrop said Intel has an "active" share buyback plan, but the company
doesn't announce when it will buy its shares. Additionally, Waldrop said there
is no "new" buyback program at Intel.

In the third quarter, Intel bought back 2.5 million shares for $251 million. So
far this year, Intel has bought back 30.9 million shares for $2.4 billion,
Waldrop said.

Intel rebounded in trading Tuesday, gaining 10 1/4, or 13.7%, to 85 after
losing 6.6% in Monday's selloff.
