$1.82 vs 1.42 First call estimate. Wow! I saw it trade over $200 a bit ago. IT

I figured they would, only I wasn't interested in trading it with calls, INTC went up almost a point the next day and the calls were actually lower due to some kind of inflated demand quotient or something. Nice pop for the NQ traders though.

Yes. And it was a great resistance point which should turn into the base for the next range

Im a bear here st but the only hope the bears have is if, and when sentiment flips more bullish. At this point I am afraid the bulls will pile on here all the way to 1125 -1130 in that case the decline won't happen. Cycles, TA, everything says we top here. But I just fear shorting because its crowded. What earnings are due out next? As I posted days ago expectations are so low its easy to surprise. That and I'd expect another round of broker upgrades here. Sigh,.. bears be careful... We have a 10-15% quick decline coming but not when everyones positioned for it. I'd like to hear Dev's , semi' others viewpoint on this.

i think vol exxpands a lot before events like that so the vol collaps is what sucks out prem from the calls

But the P/e at current earing for the quarter stand at 204/(1.86 x 4) = 27.41

not much logic here
The market catches almost everyone on the wrong side. We always seem to get fake break out before that huge dump or the hugh dump before the false break down! Trade Safe!

The earnings this quarter were 46% higher than a year ago. So what PE ratio would be "logical" to you for a company growing earnings at 46%?
