Kurlak fans: from Herb Greenberg's TSC column this morning... Herb on TheStreet: Did Intel Intimidate Kurlak?... Did this really happen?: The buzz after Intel's (INTC:Nasdaq) analyst conference on Friday in California was that the big chip maker did its best to intimidate and humiliate Merrill Lynch's Tom Kurlak, who has been sticking by his guns and not recommending the purchase of Intel as it has steadily climbed. According to several sources, who talked with attendees, Intel CEO Craig Barrett flashed a slide on the screen that showed two Merrill Lynch clients scratching their heads, wondering why they missed the run in the stock. "Appalling," says one hedge fund manager, who says it suggests Intel is too fixated on its stock price. Neither Kurlak nor an Intel spokesman could be reached for comment...
