Mon, 07 Jan 2008 07:32:31 GMT

Avian Securities is out with an interesting call saying that heading into the seasonally slow part of the year, it is easier to be negative on the PC vertical and Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) as few positive catalysts are likely to develop. Over the last several days, they believe slower than expected European Notebook sales from DSG and earlier weaker Acer sales were used as rationale by several firms for being negative on the PC vertical. Avian disagrees. More importantly, their data from each of the major PC subcomponents...[More...]

Good morning. After yesterday's final hour rebound, investors have been served a stark reminder this morning that the problems in the financials are far from over.

Originally published at RealMoney on September 19, 2007.Tony Crescenzi says the latest PPI report should be tossed because the benign headline reading will almost certainly be reversed in the months ahead owing to the surge in energy costs that has occurred of late.
