Hi Jay. Re QCOM, I note that my return on QCOM capital has had a sudden small increase. Since I'm not selling my QCOM, the small decline in price to achieve that is irrelevant. What matters to me are the dividends and profits, both of which are doing fine. If the share price drops a LOT, then I'll be able to use my dividends to buy more at a nice healthy P:E. If the decline in share price reflects fears about H12N8 [the recombined H5N1 with H7N7 bug] and Year of the Feather Duster, then it's more worrying as reality could well follow the share price, which is a prediction system rather than a past returns valuation. Maybe I am going to be a feather duster and Hu Jintao is going to be a rooster. There's a lot of crowing going on, with King George II's coronation, Hu and Vladimir strutting around and Osama putting out communiques from time to time. Mqurice PS: Somehow though, it seems nicer to have a higher value placed by others on my QCOM. But hunting around for a silver lining is some consolation.
