Intel Corp (NASDAQ:INTC)

Another high-tech company with a strong market share that has been suffering from market setbacks.

Strong profit growth and dividend growth. Demand for computers will only rise as the developing world gets more cash. Strong moat.

Fundamentals aside (which are good to boot), with the growth of cloud computing and the like, more servers than ever will be needed and Intel will be there to absorb a large part of that demand.

Intel really doesn't have much room to grow in the markets that they currently dominate, but what most people fail to realize is that they always have the option of getting into the mobile sector. With the sheer amount of resources that Intel has, they could simply out-muscle the rest of the chip makers for phones and tablets. I could see them getting a nice boost in stock price from that.

Good growth and good PEG at a good price

I'm buying the line that INTC is a solid long-term player and fits the growth + dividend model I'm looking for.

Intel CPUs
Yield %    3.20
Payout Ratio    30.00
Total Debt / Equity    0.05
Price Earnings    10.40
Price/Sales    2.57
Price/Book    2.50
Price/Cash Flow    6.90

What is not to like? Solid company balance sheet. Good dividend yield. The buzz is all about mobile computing and the "cloud" but the "cloud" is a large server farm that runs on INTC chips. As cloud storage takes off, INTC will have large steady buyers. If Intel ever cracks the mobile market, the stock could change from a large cap value play to a large cap growth play. That would be very nice indeed.

Huge dividend growth potential which will increasingly attract value investors. Buybacks will raise price as well. Still the dominant chip maker.

The competition is losing the battle for the customer choice due to superior add campaigns and new products

Intel (INTC) has been a personal favorite of mine over the past few years, providing numerous opportunities to buy on dips. The 3.4% dividend makes it easy to own. With "risk-free" interest rates near zero, it really is a simple investment.

Intel certainly took its lumps as the economy struggled. Their 25% growth rate in the current year-over-year comparisons is a good sign of business picking up. I'm even a fan of their McAfee acquisition. Security is going to be HUGE...just ask any company that's been hacked or anybody who's had to clean-up a PC infected be a virus.

I also can't leave out their awesome margins. 61% gross margin (down slightly) and 34% pre-tax profit margin.

By the way, it has a P/E of only 10! That's way too low for a leader in the technology space.

Even if Intel doesn't shoot the lights out with growth, their stock price has the cushion of a 3.4% dividend. Why is this important? With "risk-free" interest rates near zero, the stock price will only go so low before investors will step in and buy if only to get the dividend, which gets larger as the stock price decreases.

Of course, we have to determine how solid the dividend is...meaning: Is Intel a risk to cut their dividend because they can't make payouts in the future? The simple answer is no. Here's why: In the first quarter of 2011 alone, INTC generated $4 billion of operating cash flow. They paid-out just under $1 billion in dividends. They also have $4.2 billion in cash at the end of the first quarter.

I like Intel's growth potential going forward. However, what makes this investment simple is the backing of the 3.4% dividend. Even if Intel's growth doesn't soar higher, you'll be getting paid 3.4% and the protect the dividend and the low P/E provide.

Intel should be doing great with all of its input into almost every computer system, tablet and pad technology. This company should soar in the near future.

Intel appears to be one of the best overall companies when value, quality, and growth are factored in, as well as its dividend. For value, the P/E ratio sits at a low 9.3 and P/S at 2.4. Year over year we have seen INTC's revenue grow 27% and its EPS 30%, which shows stable sustainable growth as well as revenue and earnings typically in line. They also show a quick ratio of 1.3 and supple cash to cover their almost 4% yielding dividend.

Ultralong, it'll go back to 70 by the end of next year

Its P/E ratio is cheap. I like the dividend and think the P.C. sales will launch in 2012.

mcafee is another money maker.
