If you are a long-term INTC investor, of course, you don't need all this gobbldy-gook, and can go back to sleep, secure with the knowledge that you probably will not be mowing lawns in your retirement. :)

True! 8)
but should we buy some more now?

Can you elaborate. How many days did you use in the RSI, MACD, and stocastic indicators? I'd like to recreate these and see what you are pointing out.

Jon Tara, thanks. That was a very soothing post. I can go to sleep on that and dream of not mowing lawns. This TA looks like a work of art. Makes you think you have to look at nothing else. ;)

JT: excellent statement of your observations. I guess we'll know quite a bit more on 13 Jan ; )

regards,

PS: I haven't read more than about 20 posts, so pls forgive me if I'm missing something... Please agree/disagree with the following statement:

Intel is coming out of its transition from previous classic pentiums, and should begin mass production of the Pentium II as its major cash cow. Does it make sense to assume that the cost of production will decrease as volume picks up, thus yielding greater profits/earnings?

I heard a snippet on CNBC today that Intel might reported an earnings surprise to the upside. Any comments there?

jon, how can you justify 85 for intc at this point....or even 80
this stock is going to tumble. even if they make the number for the quarter, what can they possibly say positive looking foward for the next 2-3 quarters.....aisa and japan are dead and thats 1/3 of their revenue...they are already cutting prices again....they are increasing their capital spending from 4.5bil to 5.4bil in 98. they have received "massave cancellations" resulting in excess inventory. they already had a weak q3 in flash memory, q4 won't be better. r & d and mg & a 10-15% higher this quarter...i may be the fool, but right now i can't see
a smart person buying in at 75 much less at 80-85....asia is dead money for 3-6months at least. japan keeps getting worse.
if you peek in their site and re-read their q3 post earning statement..it was not all that positive short term, and things got a lot worse since then......regards,john

Jon,

My T.A. for INTC shows $75 to be a good selling opportunity.

1. Head and shoulders formation - Left shoulder formed May-June, head formed Aug-Oct, right shoulder Nov-Dec.
Slightly rising neckline was broken early Dec. at approx. 75 1/2.
The current move is reaction to the broken neckline at approx 76.

2. The wedge formed Aug.-Oct. was broken down on earnings announcement and the stock gapped down and commenced on a down trend. I have found nothing to indicate that this trend has been exhausted or broken.

3. 5 days EMA has stayed under 21 days EMA since it crossed over to the down side (the sell signal) on 9/29/97.

4. The ABC of trends- When local lows are ever lower we're
in a down trend. When local highs are ever higher, the trend is up.

It could be that your technical indicators are quicker then mine, and you'll be proven right. If so I'll be bullish on INTC not many days from now.
