This summary was created by AI, based on 29 opinions in the last 12 months.

Intel (INTC-Q) faces a mixed outlook among experts, highlighting both its potential for recovery and its ongoing challenges. While some analysts praise the significant turnaround under the new CEO, attributing a 321% rally in shares and robust growth in CPU demand, others express caution, emphasizing overvaluation and fierce competition, particularly from TSM and Nvidia. The recent involvement of the US government has been noted both positively and skeptically, with the consensus that this support may not address fundamental issues with the company. Challenges include execution failures, talent retention, and the inability to meet CPU demand, leading to a significant stock price fluctuation. Overall, while there are optimistic projections for its potential and a strong domestic market position, uncertainties surrounding its future performance remain prominent.

TSM
BUY
Just made a new 52-week high. In the tech space there is reason to be a little bit constructive. A lot of companies have held off on their spending over the 2008-2009 period. There is a pent-up demand that will possibly be satisfied over the next little while. He prefers Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM-N).
WAIT
Margins at all time highs and it worries him a bit. What can they do next. Intel has the corner on PC market but they are an entrant into the tablet market and he would rather see that happen before buying.
HOLD
Earnings are returns 25% so it is not overpriced but earnings have been softening and the outlook for high-tech stocks is softening also. So we may have seen the highs for Intel.
SELL
Likes the company. They are behind the 8 ball a little bit on the tablets. Seems to fall back after it hits $25. If you own it, consider selling, at least part of it. Also, their largest customer is Hewlett-Packard (HPQ-N) and they just signed a joint venture agreement with ARM Holdings (ARMH-Q), a leader in the tablets space, which could be a competitive threat.
PARTIAL BUY
3.3% dividend and is growing quite smartly at over 10%. You learn something like $2.40 this year and with the $.80 dividend there is room to raise the dividend. Maybe buy half a position now and if the market pulls back a little you have an opportunity to buy the rest.
BUY
Very reasonable dividend yield. This is the company that provides the engine for the whole PC operating business. Continues to produce cash flow out of its ears. Rock solid balance sheet and lots of international exposure.
COMMENT
As a long-term investor, he likes this stock. They have very little competition and he likes companies that are virtual monopolies. Good growth.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Has being a laggard for quite some time and recently has started taking off. Decent dividend at 3.7%. Last earnings report reported a triple play by beating their earnings and revenues and raised their guidance. Getting interesting. He would try to get in at the 200 day moving average of $22.
TOP PICK
Looks for industries that have gone out of favour and then look for changes in the group. Multiple compression for 10 years. 4% dividend and 80% market share. A pretty defensible business. Tech is outperforming the market if they have a strong franchise.
DON'T BUY
Are supplying PC market. It is a declining market compared to tablets. The PC is going the way. Would avoid it until they are supplying tablets.
WAIT
Always been a cyclical company. A great company, strong cash position, reasonable dividend, but no huge upside from here. Buy in high teens.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 25/10. Up 9.32%.)
TOP PICK
Rock solid balance sheet. Industry leader. Showing very good sales in emerging markets, which he likes. Trades at about 8-9 times forward earnings. Pays 4%+.
COMMENT
Caller bought Calls with a strike price of $20 expiring in December. Best time to own Technology is from mid-Oct to early January. You should wait until October to see if the low holds.
TOP PICK
Likes dividends, great balance sheet. 4.5% yield. Doesn’t see a lot of downside. Likes the theme of growing international technology sales. 55% or so of sales in Asia.
