Pigboy - Re: "...when you want to diversify into other ntries/continents for portfolio safety (ie. if US gets hit, at least I have that Asian fund thats doing well)," This was the popular theory by all the "Emerging Market" proponents - and now look at the mess in ASIA! Personally, I would invest only where I can "see" my money. Invessting in many foreign countries is a crap shoot. The governments in many of these countries aren't stable - so how can you feel confident in an investment in those countries? There are many, many excellent investment opportunities in the U.S. Why would you avoid/neglect these in favor for unseen/unknown companies in far-off lands? Re: "Do you have any other favorites besides Intel currently (although you have said they may have a tough few quarters in front of them)?" Yes - Qualcomm, AMAT, Ciena, PRIA, Cisco, MRVC. Paul
