Intel Corp. (INTC) -- This large-cap growth stock and manufacturer of semiconductor chips entered a bear market in September 2000 when it was more than $75 per share. It bottomed out below $17 early in 2006.


From July 2006 to December 2007, it recovered to more than $28 before succumbing to selling, which eventually drove it $12.

This traditional technology growth stock appears to have formed a solid base at $12 but to break from the base, it must close above the downtrend and Thursday's high of $14.60.

If it breaks out, the initial target is $18 but the trend will have changed to intermediate up, which could attract more long-term buying.

I agree that the last hour of buying on Friday, especially buying in the blue chips, was quite impressive. But the reversal barely occurred, with the S&P 500 gaining just over 3 points.
