Support Holds For Intel Corp, Says Market Timer Frank Kollar

July 16, 2008 (FinancialWire) (By Frank Kollar) Shares of Intel Corp (NASDAQ: INTC) appear to have held at support. The Fib 78.6% retracement support level at $19.62 was likely a critical turning point for Intel.

Intel closed fractionally above this support level on July 9 and then rebounded with a solid gain the following day. Tuesday's July 15 after hours earning report adds fuel to the fire and will likely result in higher highs over coming days, even though the overall stock market has been declining over credit and inflation fears.

A close below $19.62 would be bearish for Intel and would probably result in a test of the January lows around $18.00. But unless the stock market throws a huge monkey wrench into the forecast, expect Intel to move higher from here.
