Intel reported earnings last week. Intel was one of my favorite stocks last year, and I wrote about it here in “Is This the Intel Inflection”, where I successfully called the bottom in the stock.

I’ll summarize my thesis back then, update you now on what I think about Intel, and write about results and read-throughs.
