Not sure Ox,

Has not the solar been an albatross on them?

Seems like M&A is how all players have addressed the lack of growth in this sector.

THE ENTIRE SECTOR HAS BEEN SIDEWAYS FOR A LONG TIME.

Don't get me wrong - I'd like it to be different too.

Seems sector wide.

I think there is so much confusion about this outselling that.

Only aapl making money.

But in that confusion - many more chips being made.

long term wealth creation but fewer players and a maturing industry.

Stock buy backs and dividends being paid as industry wide consolidation occurs.

The US went from 100 plus auto makers in the 1900's to just 3 in 80 years same evolution?
