Paul, re MCIT : Agree with you. My powers of analysis are rather less than yours. If it seems to good to be true, it probably is.

However, couldn't resist GPS today and started a small position at $20.70. It's down significantly ( 11% at the moment ) on reduced estimates. With all the analysts falling over each other to downgrade it, below Buffett's purchase price ( around $24.00 ), it's got to go up - LOL!

Thinking of this as more of a quick trade rather than a long term hold. We'll see how it trades.

JMHO

I have a bias against tracking stocks. One of the reasons is I never know quite what i am getting. Do you have any idea what this dividend is based upon? is there a formula? who decides how much the dividend should be year in and year out?
