I think tax loss selling should be over very soon. The rule if I understand correctly is that an eqity that is taken for a loss may not be repurchased prior to 31 days from selling it. Thus, the earliest anyone can repurchase INTC and take a loss will be January 19. This may be to late if INTC returns an EPS of 90 or better. I am not sure if the same rule applies to the MF people also?

Re: DO you own a large amount of Intel stock?
1/3 of what I owned earlier this year.

Re: Or is it the first real investment you have made in
the techs away from cash? No, owned INTCW before, sold it and lost out on MAJOR gains, $35K is major on a $10K investment to me.

Re: Or have you dumped everything else but INTC?
I also have a bit of Compaq, which also is taking a crap lately.

RE:Incidentally I put some of my cash into Treasury bonds today.

Do you really feel that is better than a CD ? Aren't the rates very comparable right now after computing tax exempt differences ?
