Intel Corporation (INTC) – Buy

Jeremy Ryan INTC, Intel, Intel Corporation 0

I added to my position in Intel Corporation (INTC) position today at $50.4111. Intel is not in my 15 largest holdings.

I had already recently added more on the COVID pullback which made the stock a lot cheaper than it has been in a while. After already adding a lot to my top picks at lower prices and the huge comeback in the market it’s getting harder to find real bargains. I think short-term thinking pullbacks like what happened on Friday can created some good opportunities such as this.

Reason for Opportunity in Intel

On Friday, while Intel did very well in terms of revenue and earnings, they displeased the market with the delay of their 7-nm chips and the mention that they may consider outsourcing production to another firm.

Valuation of Intel

Trailing PE: 11.49
Return on Equity: 30.25 (5yr high)
Earnings yield: 8.56% (5yr high)
Dividend yield: 2.20%

I may add more if the price stays around this level depending on other opportunities.

Intel Corporation (INTC) – Buy

Jeremy Ryan INTC, Intel, Intel Corporation 0

I added to my position in Intel Corporation (INTC) position today at $59.265. Intel is not in my 15 largest holdings.

I first initiated a position in Intel back in 2013 at $21.1139. The pullback during the COVID crisis has made the stock a lot cheaper than it has been in a while. I’ve been considering getting some, but felt other companies were a better opportunity. Now that I’ve acquired a good amount of the top picks I feel comfortable with getting some of Intel even though it has recovered a bit itself.

Pros and Cons of Intel

Intel is one of the largest chip makers and makes most of the chips for PCs and servers including most of the computers I’ve every purchased. Even though PCs have been on the decline, the business community will most likely always depend on computers with strong processors and the growing work-at-home movement should provide more demand for their technology. They invest heavily in R&D, which helps keep them and the few other chip makers holding the market to themselves.

Most data centers rely in Intel technology. The growing usage of cloud services should continue to create demand for their technology. However, they will need to continue to invest heavily to stay ahead of competitors like AMD and Nvidia.

Intel is also investing a lot in Artificial Intelligence.

Stock Market Pullback is Good for the Market

The recent stock market drops are a good thing for the overall market. I think the recovery has been too fast and based somewhat too much on the fed temporary easing… it has to end sometime.

It’s about time for the markets to show strength on their own merits.

Some smaller pullbacks now are better than another much larger crash later in the year. Consider the pullbacks now as a good opportunity to sell some positions where the current price is high compare to the value of the business and make some buys of stocks that are selling at a discount.

There’s usually always some good deals in the market and they often become better deals when the overall market is going down hard. Make of list of companies that look attractive and judge them based on their current and future business prospects compared to the current price.

I’ve already started too and plan to buy more if prices continue to go down more.

If you’re still nervous, consider investing in solid companies with reliable dividends. For example, I like Merchant’s Bank (MBVT) with an over 4% dividend. They are rock solid and have consistently paid a dividend for years. Worst case scenario the stock plummets and I still get my 4% on my original investment and plus I get to buy more for a larger dividend.

Other stocks with decent dividends are Intel (INTC), Cisco (CSCO), Microsoft (MSFT) and GE (GE). All of which I have current long positions in.

Intel (INTC) – Buy

Jeremy Ryan INTC, Intel 0

The price is quite cheap and the business prospects are still quite good. They have a solid position the semiconductor position and continue to reinvest heavily giving them an advantage over their competition and the dividend yield is decent.

I think now is a great opportunity to get a piece of this fine company. I initiated a position today and will continue to add more if the price continues to drop.
