INTC

Intel Releases their Annual ReportINTC Annual Report Five years ago, we set out a strategy to transform from a PC-centric to a data-centric company. Our 2018 results serve as a strong proof point that our strategy is working and our transformation is well underway. We achieved record revenue and earnings per share (EPS), driven by strong business performance, continued operating leverage, and a lower tax rate. Revenue from our data-centric businesses collectively increased by double digits. Our PC-centric business grew above our expectations and continued to be a source of profit, cash flow, scale, and intellectual property (IP). While we have had delays in implementing our 10 nanometer (nm) manufacturing process technology, we have continued to innovate in our 14nm products, introducing leadership products that deliver more value to our customers. We've expanded beyond PC and server businesses with significant growth in adjacent products, and gained share in an expanded $300 billion TAM1. Our employees are executing to our strategy by developing compelling technology and delivering innovative products to our customers, enabling strong financial growth.

INTC: Earnings, 5G and HFT Gap RiskIntel is moving rapidly to capture the 5G market, along with Verizon. This was discussed in detail in our recent annual Virtual Course, this time on Emerging Displacement Technologies for the Next Decade. INTC stock has been struggling at a support level, not moving down much but also without a strong pre-earnings run as many blue chip companies enjoyed. The reason is there are some institutions selling, as seen in rotation patterns and other institutions buying in accumulation patterns. Hence, the trading range pattern on the daily chart. For now the sellers have more dominance, but that can change. The Earnings report is due today after the market close. HFTs are likely to be all over it, which means there is gap risk, and they will trigger either way on earnings news.

CALL YOUR BROKER, BLOCK "SHARE LOANING" TO SHORT SELLERS!Hello folks, THIS GOES FOR ALL PUBLIC COMPANIES, NOT JUST TESLA - PLACE A BLOCK ON YOUR ACCOUNT(S) Many may not be aware of this corrupt Wall Street loophole, when you sign a brokerage account, fine print in your contract allows the brokerage firm to loan out your shares to short sellers. It's like buying a Rolls-Royce and you paying the loan, and the company turns around and loans the car out to another person while you are not driving the car and profiting off both sides at your expense. Stopping Short Sellers from accessing your shares will stop a lot of the market turmoil. Wall Street Corruption at some point must stop. Don't wait, call your broker and DEMAND IT, they will be very surprised you are asking them and hesitant to freeze your shares. THEY MUST FREEZE YOUR SHARES ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE A CASH ACCOUNT! DO NOT TAKE NO AS AN ANSWER!!! IF YOU HAVE A MARGIN ACCOUNT AND DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH THE ACCOUNT IS WORTH, IF THEY DO NOT WANT TO LOSE YOU AS A CUSTOMER, THEY WILL FREEZE SHARE LOANING ON YOUR MARGIN ACCOUNT TOO.

ADDED 1,000,000 SHARES - POSSIBLE BUYOUTWe heard a rumor that at least two to three large chip companies approached Micron about a takeover. Is the rumor true, we are trying to find out. We can say this, after looking at the stocks / P/E's of lesser public companies, in the computer / technology industries and other industries, and then looking at the price of Micron, if the company is not purchased by Intel (INTC), Qualcomm (QCOM), Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM), Qorvo (QRVO), Microchip Technology (MCHP), Western Digital (WDC), Broadcom (AVGO) or someone else, it will be a miracle. Look at Cracker Barrel (CBRL), trading at 19 x trailing 12 months, with a P/E of $9.00...STOCK PRICE = $172.00 (yes, we understand it's a restaurant - that doesn't change earnings for earnings or P/E for P/E) So, even if Micron sales drop, and E.P.S drops to between $8.00 and $9.00, the stock should be trading upwards of $175..? No..? E.P.S is E.P.S right...? Cracker Barrel has a market cap of only $4.2 Billion while Micron has a market cap of $41 Billion... Look at MCHP, trading at $73.00 with a market cap of only $17 Billion... P/E....? 32 x trailing 12 months...? OMG! Look at QRVO, trading at $63.50 with a market cap of only $7.7 Billion... P/E...? 460.33 x trailing 12 months...? OMG! MICRON is one of a handful, if not the only UNDERVALUED STOCK ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE Corrupt Analysts calling for more of a drop in the price of Micron could soon be kicking themselves in the teeth! We will continue to keep adding Micron to our portfolio at these FIRE SALE PRICES! IT'S REALLY DISGUSTING WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MICRON! WALL STREET HAS MICRON ALL WRONG AND SOON, THEY WILL ALL BE JUMPING OFF BUILDINGS! HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL OUR FOLLOWERS!

Bullish Divergence Transforms to Near End to Oversold ConditionsAT40 = 17.3% of stocks are trading above their respective 40-day moving averages (DMAs) – 10th day of oversold period following 4-day oversold period AT200 = 29.5% of stocks are trading above their respective 200DMAs VIX = 23.4 Short-term Trading Call: bullish Commentary The small bullish divergence to start the week received follow-through in the form of a big rally day in the stock market. AT40 (T2108), the percentage of stocks trading above their respective 40-day moving averages (DMAs), jumped from 11.9% to 17.3%. Suddenly, it looks possible for the stock market to bring an end this week to this extremely extended oversold period (AT40 above 20%). AT200 (T2107), the percentage of stocks trading above their respective 200DMAs, came to life by hopping from 25.4% to 29.5%. AT200 even slightly broke through its steep downtrend. {AT40 (T2108) surged from the lows to the oversold threshold.} {AT200 (T2107) bounced enough to sneak a peak above its relentless October downtrend.} So far, the S&P 500 (SPY) is down 4.5% for this 10-day old oversold period. The index is down 3.7% from the start of the first oversold period which is only separated from the current period by one trading day. If the oversold period had ended today, the S&P 500’s performance would have been in-line with historic 14-day long oversold periods and under-performed historic 10-day oversold periods. In both cases projections are for less weakness. {The performance of the S&P 500 for a given oversold duration (T2108 below 20%).} In other words, there is a decent case to be made that the breakout from this oversold period will come with another big rally day for the S&P 500. It will need to be a big move to break out of the current steep downward trading channel formed by the lower Bollinger Bands (BBs). {The S&P 500 (SPY) rallied for a 1.6% gain that perfectly matched the previous day's open and close lower.} The NASDAQ gained the same percentage as the S&P 500 but its range of motion was not nearly enough to nullify the previous day’s fade and selling. The Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) gained 1.7% but also failed to nullify the previous day’s pressure. {The NASDAQ rallied for a 1.6% gain but still sits well within the downward trading channel formed by the lower Bollinger Bands (BBs).} {The Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) rallied 1.7% but still sits within a steep downward trading channel.} The volatility index, the VIX, only fell 5.5% and closed at 23.4. It is still at elevated levels (above 20) so the stock market remains very vulnerable to wide swings and sharp selling, but at least the intraday high did not reach the recent highs. The iShares Russell 2000 ETF (IWM) rallied for a 2.1% gain. Unlike the other major indices, IWM managed to tap the upper bound of its downward trading channel. IWM hugged this line in the selling that led to the current levels. Follow-through buying would represent a very important breakout. {The iShares Russell 2000 ETF (IWM) is making another attempt to break out from its downward trading channel former by its lower Bollinger Bands.} Although I did not get the volatility spike I wanted to trigger more aggressiveness, I still treated the rally as a validation of the bullish signs from the previous day. I focused on my shopping list even as I took my profits on my latest tranche of SPY call options (expiring Friday). I loaded up on CSX Corporation (CSX) calls, a calendar call spread on Intel (INTC), and of course I implemented my Facebook (FB) pre-earnings trade (twice!). I also decided to get aggressive with small caps given the abundance of beaten up small caps I saw with big gains on the day. I started accumulating call options on IWM expiring in 2 1/2 weeks. I capped off my hedges with a put spread on Boeing (BA) which rallied right to its 200DMA and an obligatory put option on Caterpillar (CAT). From here, I can stay 100% focused on the bullish buying opportunities…while of course keeping in my peripheral vision the on-going (technical) market risks that I have covered in previous Above the 40 posts.

RAISING POSITION TO 1,000,000 (MILLION) SHARESMICRON is a screaming bargain at current levels with or without a sales decline, with or without an over supply, etc.. WE ARE RAISING OUR POSITION TO 1,000,000 MILLION SHARES We are taking a good guess that we will see Capitulation soon with people panicking and running for the doors for NO GOOD REASON! When you look at the hype surrounding AMD, trading approx. 9 points below MICRON, it makes our argument even more concrete! AMD up over 2 points today now trading around $32.. Dare to Compare..? Advanced Micro Devices has a trailing-twelve-months P/E of 80.53X compared to the Electronics / Semiconductors industry's P/E of 18.14X. Within the last 5 qtr's, AMD had the following earnings: 0.45 CENTS Q2 2018 - 0.14 Q1 2018 - 0.11 04 2017 - 0.08 Q3 2017 - 0.10 Q2 2017 - 0.02 Within the last 5 qtr's, MICRON had the following earnings: 12.06 DOLLARS Q3 2018 - 3.15 Q2 2018 - 2.82 Q1 2018 - 2.45 Q4 2017 - 2.02 Q3 2017 - 1.62 DARE TO COMPARE INTEL EARNINGS TO AMD..? What is happening now to Micron as a company / stock is defined as SICK! Wall Street Analysts have lost their minds. This was a setup by Wall Street to cash in on options sold short. It was a HUGE Payday for Short Sellers and absolutely criminal. This is a chance of a lifetime and when Wall Street hands you a HUGE GIFT, know when to accept it, say thank you and RUN TO THE BANK AND CASH YOUR HUGE PAYCHECK!
