Hmm, more quantum weirdness. I am inclined to agree and have made some initial chess moves to establish just such a position, though as yet am cautiously surveying the situation and have not popped a blue pill.

Please revert to your normal disagreeing status as it is confusing to see you agree.

Perhaps an opinion on QCOM would set us straight again. I note in passing that QCOM has got another $1 billion to spend on buying shares and they have recently spent over $1 billion at about $35 a share, together with selling swarms of put options. They apparently think that $35 is better than keeping money. Which is odd since a couple of years ago they thought that $18 was too much [split-adjusted] and I don't think they doubled the value of their cash position in two years.

I wish they'd paid me dividends instead of buying shares at $35!
