miami trailing georgia tech by one game in the coastal division. miami will have to win tonight to keep pace with the yellow jackets drilling the blue devils. miami doesn't face georgia tech until the month of may. the 14th through the 16th in atlanta. jason morris will face his former college baseball team. morris came to coral gables via georgia tech and hasn't. so that's the series to look forward to. the pitch is inside just as miami trails georgia tech their first place in the coastal division, the virginia cavaliers trail miami by just one game for t the it. stri by can you remember? >> i don't think it mattered. i was so small at the plate, i didn't have a strike zone. >> jason: any freshman hazing as we see miami for the first time tonight go down in a still evasive attempt and a very late jump by david villasuso. >> i'm not sure if that was a the hit-and-run. you saw villasuso looking into the dugout. did not got a good jump. you are not supposed to go. you see coach morris is going to have a word with villasuso. he might be telling him ju

tech is not apple. we are seeing a broad consumer spend recovery, so the consumer electronics cycle is doing better. if you look at what's going on in south korea, the semi conductors are at the center of this. those numbers have been going up. so that is now flowing into tech stocks. and what you see with apple will not necessarily come through with all the others. >> but looking at this tech rally, do you think this rally is sustainable as far as the tech sector is concerned? >> certainly given its base effects. it's coming off a very low base and therefore, the rally is playing catch up and that way it's sustainable. but i do not think that the tech stocks and the overae all spend is going to get back to anywhere near what it was before the crisis. i still think there's a suppression in consumer expenditure, housing worries me, levels of company expenditure on things like tech budgets will be lower than it was, so you're going to get a nice bounce recovery and then it will settle down and flat line.

but before we get to apple let's talk tech broadly. some pretty big moves expected, and of course we got google earnings yesterday night and then we saw some big action today in the stock as well as the entire sector. >> well, listen, we make this point all the time. google is also a very company-specific story. they dominate their field. and they actually generate, you know, 97% of their revenue is from one product. they don't give guidance. they're really cagey with the street. so this is a stock-specific story. earlier in the week we saw intel. that is a much more macro story. they sell across geographies, to a lost different businesses. the guidance out of intel was fantastic. so i think the macro picture for tech looks really good. okay? but then again we're at 52-week highs in the market. you've got to roll up your sleeves. this is where you earn your keep, you know, by picking stock stories. >> let's take a look at some of the implied moves. amazon, for instance, 8% plus or minus. apple 4.5%. mike, how do you make sense of this?

. >> malcom from virginia tech is going to put his name in and come back to virginia tech. would you do that advice for that? >> i know all the fans at virginia tech are going crazy because he might leave. it will help him to get better. he's going to work out against guys -- he might work out against guys that are the best guards in the country. so that will help him. and if he comes back it's going to help virginia tech. it's good to test the waters, understanding that if nobody really wants me -- if nobody wants him to get drafted, they may take him or they may not. >> and they get a good look at you for next year. >> right. all you have to do is work hard. i think malcom is going to be a great player. and i think what he's doing is the right thing to do. he's got to help himself. i think he'll have a shot. but i think he'll be a better player in he comes back is there one part of your game, specifically that you want to improve based on what you experienced last year and this year as a senior? >> i'm looking forward from the combine in chicago. i love challenge. and thi

near the top of the tech bubble.nd let's say a helen fund comes in and that hedge fund was negative on tech stocks in 1999. let's say the best way to play that short, to bet again those funds that owned tech, was to create a basket like this that was made up of actual tech mutual funds, and the funds endorsed it, they didn't fight it. was there fraud in putting that basket together? oh, i don't think so. in fact, the bet against tech would have actually gone bad two months later, as incredibly, when i know very few people thought the nasdaq gained another couple thousand points, like lightning, and it was only after that run that it collapsed. housing was like that, too. exactly like that going into 2007. enjoying an incredible run that most thought was totally sustainable. we now in hindsight say what a bunch of jokers, those guys that owned the tech mutual funds in 1999 going into 2000. but before the dotcom crash these people were making money hand over fist, more than i'd ever seen in my life. just as the german

new proof tonight that the tech sector is alive and well. intel reported that it's quarterly earnings nearly quadrupled and, susie, the tech titan's revenues surged 44%. >> susie: tom, this is intel's best first quarter in more than four decades. and that's one reason why intel's shares jumped almost 4% in after-hours trading. >> tom: here's a look at those first quarter profits. intel earned nearly $2.5 billion, or 43 cents a share, a nickel better than analysts were anticipating. intel's chief financial officer stacy smith says strong demand for computer notebooks powered up profits. >> the notebook market for us was particularly strong, and stronger than i expected when we started the quarter. and in particular, it was the high end of that segment. what we saw was demand on our new products at the high end of the notebook market. it was stronger than i anticipated when we started the quarter. >> tom: we'll have more on how the intel results may impact tomorrow's trading on wall street in tonight's "market focus". >> susie: while intel pos

and the tech trade, these have kind of been the dogs of tech. texas instruments trading at roughly 12 times earnings. that's something i'm starting to get a little more interested here. >> petey's been on texas for a while. now it's trading at a 52-week high. if you want to take one negative from the texan, it's gross margins in the first quarter maybe a little light at 52.7%. if you really want to sort of get down to the nitty graty. but again, pete's been on texan for a long time. the stock is probably still okay here although some people might point to -- >> when you look at the revenues they estimated and the earnings going forward, as you mentioned, melissa, they delivered. they want everything and they got everything. that's why i think at least you're seeing a positive reaction right now. we have seen too many times where they didn't deliver on the guidance, they didn't deliver on the numbers, the margins -- i think people are willing to give up a little bit there as long as those revenue projections which they were and the eps going forw

it is time to go up to new york and get this morning's tech bytes. >> in today's tech bytes the software engineer walks into a bar, it sounds like the opening to a joke but it is no laughing matter for apple. they got their hands on the next i phone when an apple employee forgot it in a california bar. here it is. the larger screen, features a front facing camera as well as a back facing camera with an led flash. the new i phone is not expected to be unveiled for a couple of months. the latest version of the tom clan si inspired game is called conviction. dan says there's more action and new tricks. >> a lot of super secret spy gadgets, your night vision goggles, you can trail on the wall and the key should not be seen, to not get into fights. >> a version for i phone is in the works as well. >>> new reports say last year's cyber attack on google put the private information of millions at risk. intruders from china broke into a system giving access to multiple sites. the information may help hackers find other vulnerabilities at google. >>> and if first 3 d home computer is expected to g

we've been watching a lot of tech movers in the after-hours session.ut for true tech lovers this is the earnings week to watch. got them all. but the big daddy of them all is tomorrow. microsoft. out after the bell. so let's get an options strategy ahead of this bell whether. mike khouw of cantor fitzgerald and an "options action" contributor is in fact standing by. mike, you're fairly bullish on this stock. >> well, first of all, the stock has been behaving very well lately and it's obviously been moving up pretty sharply. one of the things i would highlight and the guys on the desk have already mentioned this, you know, if all you do is sort of meet the street's expectation, you can't really expect a whole lot more out of it. what i'm sort of recommending here is a bit of a stock replacement strategy where you can remain long but take some of the profits that you've already realized if you like to do that. what we're taking a look at here, over the past eight earnings quarters this thing has moved with a magnitude of about 4.86%. the options markets

so we're going to talk a little tech tonight. tech has to come to the table here and perform over the next month or you've got to be suspicious of this rally. >> anybody want to talk about amazon. >> up 6%. >> i like wait you just pronounced it. >> is that a new stock? >> we talked about amazon the other day. understand how everyone is positioned in the market. what's important for amazon? nothing's changed fundamentally. everyone is playing it from the short side because they're worried about the ipad launch. this week, everyone says wait a second, the ipad is not the kindle killer, we've got to get back in the stock. >> it is the kindle killer. >> people are getting become into amazon. it's how everyone is positioned in the market. >> it is the kindle killer, but amazon makes more money reoccurring stream selling the books on amazon. >> why is it a kindle killer? >> huge. people are down loading it like crazy. >> bottom line it for me. >> bottom line, the fact that they're going into target stores is a bad sign for the kindle.

and remember, motorola, tech. apple, tech. that's it.t's about as close as they come together, is that broad rubric. you can't just assume all companies in the same industry are equivalent. sometimes there just isn't any pin action, meaning you can't extrapolate from one company's results to the rest of the industry. i don't want you to ever extrapolate from motorola to hewlett-packard. never. never extrapolate from dell to ibm. never. and that's most frequently the case when one of those companies is a loser. this happens in every industry. it's not just in tech. companies hide behind others in a sector when they drop the ball. by the way, we saw this with general mills, the cereal company. it had just gotten beaten viciously by kellogg. well, it said that the whole industry was slowing down. oh, wow. we also saw it with procter & gamble, which claimed that the world was rebelling from high-priced products. what was the truth? colgate was running circles around it in almost every market around the globe where two competed against each o
