Yes Paul. Although I have sold a few shares on ocassion Intc still comprises over 50% of my holdings and will continue to. I am constantly amazed at the battle that is waged over this stock relative to it's performance. If you hold it it will perform over the long haul. It is really pretty simple. =================================== While this may be true, I think you have to admit 7.6% return in 1997 is rather poor compared to what else is going on around us. I know its not good analysis to look at any period of time but then again what is your definition of "long haul" ? Last June you could buy Intel at 148, I did, now split adjusted its at 160. Like someone on this thread thread has said many times, Intel is not an easy stock to own. jim
