You know that's prolly what that headline does mean for INTC , the big Mid Q is in March but I saw an earlier one too that was
<<<Intel Corp.-INTC 1pm business news update cc 2/26 sponsor Co" >>>
You know how I kept mentioning to Jerry about that huge dumping we began to see back in mid-Jan on the tape , and AMAT tried to rear up a second time making a lower double~top to the mid-high $24's .... that was giving me the roadmap for what lay ahead , combined with the constant selling pressure everyday on the giant INTC ....what was significant then was that HUGE resistance on AMAT then of $25 which has traditionally put AMAT at a prime Valuation in the best of times .
One of the maxims is also without further catalysts:
"if they can't push 'em up farther" , then they'll sell them back down "
Thru the noise surrounding and going into the weakness/doubt into NVLS CC now , I was taking my que off of AMAT to see how this scenario might unfold since it was somewhat in the clear from their eps report and guidance , and on the 23rd and 24th both dips to $20.90's were getting bought hard. This was what was giving me the confidence to see an early sell-off followed by a rebound today .
and you know I watch level II and the ecns as well and was right in the middle of that action , and was waiting each time the last few days for each dip there ...while watching the body language of the others .
