I dunno....I think owning a lot of GE and writing covered calls on it month after month ain't such a bad strategy.... Its not going to disappear....its always going to be around... They have best management practices.....and they've decided to stick to their knitting...so whats wrong with that ? I guess its an ideal investment for someone who doesn't have room for risk...? BWDIK ?

LOL.....I bet you've seen this but......... 09:44 ET Core Router Market : The latest report from consulting group Dell'Oro confirms that Cisco (CSCO 18.57 -0.17) continues to lose ground to Juniper (JNPR 53.50 +0.35) in the core router market. Cisco's Q1 share fell to 59% from 65% while Juniper's rose to 38% from 34% (AVCI rose to 2% from 1%). Though there had been recent talk of Cisco stabilizing its position, at least one rumor on this front - that Cisco was winning business away from Juniper at Qwest (Q) - was apparently untrue; sources at CSFB said after a Juniper presentation at their conference that Q was undecided on next-gen purchases and opting to upgrade JNPR routers with new cards for now.
