Stock Of The Month: INTC

This month's stock is one of the most undervalued I've seen in quite a while...some would say it's cheap for a reason.

Intel (INTC)

Positives:
Massive positive free cash flows ($8.6B per year).
$18B cash, just $2B debt.
P/E of just 11, and an outstanding PEG (forecast) of 0.74.
Healthy 3.5% dividend yield.

Negatives:
Lots of recent acquisitions to integrate (Texas Instruments' cable modem business, Infineon's wireless chip segment, and most controversially, the entirety of McAfee and their security software(!)).
"Slowing" of PC sales.

Here's my current portfolio. As always, I believe in all of these stocks - until I sell them.
