i would bet on kurlak, he is the ax on intc, he is the most respected person with a tract record on these stocks. another way to look at it is kurlak gets no benifit now by bashing intc and techs since most people are bullish in general-meaning the street, for kurlak to make a statement like that is really going out on the limb. i would not bet against him.

SGS-Thomson to invest $1.0 bln in France, Italy

PARIS, May 11 (Reuters) - European semi-conductor group SGS-Thomson Microelectronics NV <STM.PA> <STM.N> said on Monday it would spend about $1.0 billion in research facilities and pilot production sites in France and Italy.

It said in a statement it would invest $500 million to create a plant on 300mm/12-inch research and pilot production line at Crolles near Grenoble in France.

It will also host a new research and development centre and pilot line in Italy for four new generations of non-volatile technologies within the next five years, which will take an investment similar to that for France.
