Personally I would put my money on Intel based on where the company is heading and how far AMD is falling behind the curve. Also as long as Intel can keep up with its customers demands in a very competitive market which is being very hard on their bottom line, they should do ok although I am not so sure about their increasing profit margins in the coming quarters. |

We have a heap of money tied up in Bonds ourselves, probably better return in a bank account with the current interest rates but then you pay tax and how much will depend on your tax code. We have been lucky with bonds, getting something most draws and living out of NZ for several years made no difference to the winnings as they were simply reinvested. Seems the more you have in a block, the better your chances but even the smaller blocks pick up, all in the luck of the draw. Speaking of lotto, since lotto first started, other than the years we were out of NZ, we have never ever won a cash prize from lotto, only those single lines of strike compared to the 'return' we have had from bonds. | PinoyKiw (9675) | ||
