Goldman Sachs today maintained a Sell rating on Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) with a price target of $16.00. Analysts said rumors that Intel may be a foundry for Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) was not a catalyst.

"We believe that Intel being a foundry for large customers such as Apple would dilute its margins and increase the long-term risk of excess supply (given high capex and potential share shifts among foundries). . . As we have written previously, we believe this business would be a negative for Intel’s multiple," said analyst James Covello.
