Rants and WTF are you talking about and Coronavirus!

What a strange swing trade. Intel maxed out at 44.9 in the month between purchase price and sale. Seems to me that Intel is more of a longer play at this point rather than a max, 3. 5% short swing if bought at the top. I mean, I personally cut my position in half, taking 2022-2023 profits to play with more interesting swing options while awaiting Intel to get their pipeline up and running. But swing trading Intel in this current environment, an awkward play for sure. It's seems like we're just playing darts blindfolded.

I am sure it is strange. For what it is worth I bought and sold two or three times and yes it was like throwing darts at a dart board. I think I am done with it. I realize yesterday I said I might buy back at 42 and then it went from 43 to 44. I am just the guy who wants to be long who gets cold feet, sells while it is up and then buys back lower. I do call it gambling at least for me. I am not a trader. I did not make anymore money than an index fund would have over the same period but at least I didn't loose money in this case.

Well, if you had lived in Russia, would you have publicly done a Navalny?

Some people loose grasp of context.

Many people for him yesterday, despite Putin, because he means hope. Millions of Russians, this is time for your new revolution and to shoot Putin, when then, future will be better for You and your children, rather than sending them to die at war, when Ukrainians are your brothers with Ukrainian Russian babies.

Bought some Intel at 43.40 yesterday. I had sold. I have no idea what it does from here. If that is passive aggressive I don't care, LOL.

It sounds like it makes sense to me. I am out of Intel right now. I may buy back around $42. I made enough to go to FKK club this year. That isn't really how I look at it but it is fun to say it that way. Thanks for the thoughts on it.

It is pretty simple. If Intel stock had gone to 100, would the US and German governments been as keen to hand put 10 b incentives each to Intel foundries?

Without these grants (tax incentives, loans etc) Intel cannot compete with Tsmc and Samsung who has received simillair incentives from the Taiwanese and Korean governments for over a decade now.

But once the grants are in place, fair valuation will come. But not before. The US grant seems close. The German one might be further off for now. Really hard to say.

How is Intel going for you these days? I'm sure you switched to Nvidia but conveniently just forgot to tell us. Isn't that right?

Nope. Probably should have on the last day of 23, but staying long.

You can compare Intel financials to AMD if you want. See which one is undervalued compared to the other one, and by how much.

It is either my assumptions about chips money being true, or some wall street telegram group of big traders being flock animals.

Could also be a mix.

Could also be that the taiwanese americans all over us hardware tech is kinda grouping up against Intel. Due to the fear of big China. They know tsmc is their bet on having usa save them. But China will attack if you listen to Xi. Probably won't be before 2027 tho.

AI algorithm says Intel will end the year at around 85 $ but won't start to pick up before in a month or two.

But I'm not selling or buying due to taxes this year. Sure supermicro or something would have been better at the start of the year. Not that it's even listed, but you can still buy I guess. Amd is a tulip stock. Has nothing on Intel, and lacks a foundry segment. Plus massively overvalued compared to Intel. Nvidia probably, but then I'd have to trade it.

Good buy for stock with near-blue chip history in a high demand sector.

But Intel's recent drop reinforces the original criticism of OP's boasting of short term gains over one month. Chip companies doing well but intel sinks. Case in point. Never said Intel was a bad investment.

It doesn't change that Russians support the attack on Ukraine and they do support Putin. He would win easily even if the elections were fair.

Problem is Russians are so stupid to believe and follow Putin, when millions don't support war versus their brothers Ukrainians. I would say same for Chinese and US following Trump.

[Sirioja]

Ever heard of this guy named Navalny? I heard he ran against Putin.

Yes and Putin made him being killed in jail in deep Siberia.

[Sirioja]

And you really think the elections are free and fair in Russia? Come on Sirioja, please get a grip on reality.

Of course, but Russians accept, rather than making new revolution and shooting Putin.

Putin will be easily elected again, when if they were not so blind, Russians should do to Putin what Romanians did to Ceaucescu. I had a Russian escorts for so many nights in Paris from 2011 to 2014 , we argued in restaurant about Putin. Millions of Russians are so blind, believing all his lies, when he put in jail, wives of soldiers.
