Intel is seeing price levels not seen since 1996.  Dividend yield near 4%.  This is the type of stock you'd buy, and let sit, give it to the kids.  Collect dividend income at retirement (and INTC has consistently increased its dividend), so who cares about Social Security.  I'm 30, I know I won't see Social Security when i retire.  It'll be a great way to impress friends at bday parties.

i chose this as a market neutral pick to pair with hpq (which i would short sell) given the 20% varience in price when compared with hpq over the past year.  The two have nearly identicle price graphs over the past year, but intc is currenty devalued when compared to hpq; i believe that this will correct within 3 months, regardless of where the market is heading.  That is long intc, short hpq for a 20% profit.
