>>Earnings this quarter includes a one-time gain of one billion dollars from the sale of 28 million shares of Micron stock." >>> This is very likely going to happen. TI stock holders will rejoice, MU's will be wondering what happened to the stock.

John, I have no knowledge whether TXN/INTC have sold forward. I doubt INTC has because they are trying to keep the Rambus memory fiasco from falling off the cliff into oblivion. I think it is at the bottom of the Mariana Trench, though. -g- TXN is another matter and I would start hedging if I thought we were at a top rather than getting into a tough spot. Remember the last time we had a big hedge? That was when Simplot got his nutz in a vise and did a deal with that Cannuk bank. We hit 17 bucks as those guys unloaded. However, I don't know exactly what restrictions on hedging are in place in the current agreements. Regards, Ice
