"Our best-performing sectors for the second quarter were energy and information technology, and from these sectors, Apache and Intel were the Fund's two strongest individual contributors. Intel shares were also strong following their announcement of better than expected PC sales and profit margins, which should lead to higher earnings for the year. Despite lingering PC concerns and substantial investments in the ramp-up of their tablet PC offerings, Intel is still producing profit margins that are near the high end of their historical range. Even with strong recent gains for APace and Intel, the two stocks still sell at a significant discount to out estimate of intrinsic value," Bill Nygren (Trades, Portfolio) said earlier this year about the company.
The most recent insider trades were from President Renee Jo James and Executive VP William Holt, who both sold shares. Holt sold 30,880 shares at $36.17, leaving him with 3 shares. James sold 6,742 shares at $34.09, leaving him with 75,639 shares in his portfolio.
