See How Intel Corp Ranks Among Analysts' Top Dow 30 Picks
By Market News Video Staff, Wednesday, July 25, 12:02 PM ET
A study of analyst recommendations at the major brokerages shows that Intel Corp (NASDAQ:INTC) is the #24 broker pick, on average, out of the 30 stocks making up the Dow Jones Industrial Average, according to ETF Channel. Within the broader S&P 500, when components were ranked in terms of analyst favorites, INTC claims the #312 spot.
In forming this rank, the analyst opinions from the major brokerage houses were tallied, and averaged; then, the underlying components were ranked according to those averages. Investors often interpret analyst opinions from different angles — when companies have a low rank among analysts, it isn't necessarily the case that investors should conclude that the stock will perform poorly. It can, of course, but a bullish investor could also take the contrarian angle and read into the data that there is lots of room for upside because the stock is so out of favor.
From the other direction, a popular analyst pick could mean that many sharp minds individually came to the same bullish conclusion, and therefore the stock should do well, but it could also mean that if the company stumbles, that would come as a negative surprise.
For these reasons, we at ETF Channel find value to putting together these rankings, because both the top and the bottom ends of the list can often make for some interesting stock picking ideas for further research.
According to the ETF Finder at ETF Channel, INTC makes up 29.28% of the Proshares Ultra Semiconductors ETF (USD) which is trading up by about 4% on the day Wednesday.
INTC operates in the Semiconductors sector, among companies like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (TSM) which is off about 0.1% today, and Texas Instruments Inc. (TXN) trading higher by about 1%. Below is a three month price history chart comparing the stock performance of INTC, versus TSM and TXN.
INTC is currently trading up about 0.7% midday Wednesday.
