<<As for investing in Nokia and Qualcomm. I have absolutely no problems adding shares gradually in a dividend-paying technology company like Nokia for the forseeable future.>> I don't make my investment decisions based on dividends. I do not want to pay the huge tax; I prefer capital gains. I do applaud Nokia's decision to buy back 2,000,000 shares.

....a dividend-paying and fast-growing technology company like Nokia -- playing a dynamic role in the deregulation of Europe and Asia, I might add -- for the forseeable future. ......You are just starting to see a wave of activity which could see Europe become the world's biggest market place in corporate activity for up to the next five years," said Bryan Allworthy, European strategist at Merrill Lynch. "Both the value and level of transactions could eclipse America for the first time ever. There is a huge amount of shareholder value tied up in cross holding which are legacies of the last 50 years of how European business was financed and developed," he said. Allworthy highlighted as a key step toward breaking down traditional barriers a move last December from the German government to free from capital gains tax sales of corporate cross-holdings greater than 10 percent. dailynews.yahoo.com
