Intel (INTC) Approaches New Upside Target of $20.87
Dec 18, 2012 (SmarTrend(R) News Watch via COMTEX) --
Shares of Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) opened today above their pivot of $20.54 and have already reached the first level of resistance at $20.72. Investors may be interested in a cross of the next upside pivot targets of $20.87 and $21.20.
In the past 52 weeks, Intel share prices have been bracketed by a low of $19.16 and a high of $29.27 and are now at $20.66, 8% above that low price. In the last five trading sessions, the 50-day moving average (MA) has fallen 1.1% while the 200-day MA has slid 0.6%.
Potential upside of 11.8% exists for Intel, based on a current level of $20.66 and analysts' average consensus price target of $23.10. The stock should run into initial resistance at its 50-day moving average (MA) of $20.94 and subsequent resistance at its 200-day MA of $24.91.
SmarTrend recommended that its subscribers protect gains by selling shares of Intel on August 23rd, 2012 by issuing a Downtrend alert when the shares were trading at $25.26. Since that call, shares of Intel have fallen 18.6%. We are now looking for when a new Uptrend will commence and will alert SmarTrend subscribers in real time.
