Intel Stock

I am a pretty much a newb to the stock trading world, but lately I was looking to invest about $1500 into Intel. Right now, they are almost at a 3 year low, and with Conroe coming out I really think there is nowhere to go but up? Do you guys think that this stock will gain some ground back this year, or am I just boarding a sinking ship?
 
Intel will make an attempt to bounce back with the recent Dell/AMD changes. I think investing them short-term would be a good idea, but I know nothing about the markets so my input is useless.
 
I would say, after looking at some stocks in the past, that there is a chance of Intel going up when Core 2 is released for the desktop/server.
Often companies seem to have a jump when announcements are made, and then again when things are released, so they could go up, but that doesn't mean they will.
 
I was thinking to head on to this over the year. I think that if Intel could take back the performance crown from AMD Intel has the marketing power to gain back a lot of ground....but who knows?
 
Do not invest in Intel. They are done for awhile. It will remain within a $1 range for the next year. AMD on the other hand is going up up up up and away! I am not showing any bias here...I just research stocks daily and have a pretty good feel for the market.
 
I think the stock has already gone up with the announcement of Core Duo so I don't think it will go up when it does finally come out.

you are exactly right...stocks go up on speculation before the announcement.
 
I would be very leery of INTC right now. I had projected a low of $18 this year and it hit that Friday, but with the Dell/AMD announcement it may very well drop to the $14-15 range. Wait for the stock price to rise on high volume.

My advice: Don't buy stocks that are in a downtrend, especially with the overall market action like the last couple of weeks.

and if your going to buy AMD wait for the 1 week pullback

AMD could very well pull back to the $31-32 range. It broke through the 50DMA which had been resistance for a while, and now the 50DMA will be support.

You've hit it dead on bro
 
Don't just drop the 1500 into whatever you buy. Span it out over 3 months or so. Buy 500 this month, 500 next month, and 500 the month after - dollar average.
