Carl,

You posted the same message on all three Intel threads. Isn't this what the SI webmistress calls "spamming"?

Intel is heading higher, no matter what this moron Fleckenstein says. He talks like he is short Intel and is getting his ass reamed.

Carl,

The real truth about Fleckenstein: He has missed out on the greatest wealth building period in the history of the stock market. No wonder he's sour on the market.

His comments on Intel, like Kurlack's, reveal a lack of insight into the nature of the information revolution that the planet is now going through. While he acknowledges the importance of the Internet, he clearly shows his ignorance in denying Intel any part in it. In fact, Intel's current strong financial position rests squarely on the sale of its Zeon chips in the server market, not on the sub-1000 PC market that he claims Intel has lost. Is he (and Kurlak) really that stupid that he doesn't see what is so obvious to even a casually informed industry watcher like myself? Sure, Intel has a few competitors nipping at its heals, but do they really threaten its monopoly? I don't think so. Ask NEC, IBM, Motorola, and Cyrix how easy it is to compete against Intel in the high performance PC chip market. Jerry Sanders is the only one left who hasn't learned his lesson. But then, he always had a thing about being second best.

Re: "One final piece of news: It turns out that in recent days Saudi Arabia has had to turn to its neighbor, the United Arab Emirates, to borrow money. Just goes to show you how tough life is in the oil patch these days. All of these things - the weakness in copper, oil and other commodities, and the layoffs - all point to one thing: We are headed for a very ugly recession that is due to over-capacity and excess speculation in the world. Easy money created the problem; it won't cure the problem, and that is the difference between the bulls and the bears."

This guy is a brilliant idiot! Easy money creates inflation not recession. The fear of recession looming is due to global competition created by technological efficiency, a two year abnormal weather condition which cut into the profits of the world's largest oil companies and the saving/spending habits of the inflationary fears of the 80's. No one (especially the Japanese) spend unless it was for necessity.

No one really knows if this great recession will occur because the world was never at this juncture before. The greatest countries on the face of the earth have decided to create a boom time economic condition by lowering interest rates. The bond market will start to correct, interest rates will level off, people will feel safer and start buying things for their own pleasure and not just out of necessity giving companies more pricing powers. Then the cycle will start to turn towards increasing prices and once again inflation worry will slowly creep into the minds of the money controllers.

And what will Intel do while all this is happening? Why earn more money of course!

Carl, are you sure you're not another Carl, i.e., Johnson, that we ran out of here about 2 1/2 years ago for his consistently bearish, Intel is going straight down the drain posts over at least half a year? By the time Intel had doubled, he fled with his tail between his legs, never to be seen again (on the Intel thread, that I've seen). I heard there's a guy down near the Bowery, NYC, trying to sell 'the world will end tomorrow sign'. Cheap.
