So instead of buying Flarion, Qualcomm should have bought some GSK, for example? I'm just trying to make sense of your logic.

There are a number of low risk investments likely to pay at least 6 percent. To name a few: GSK, yielding a 6% dividend, well covered by earnings. WRE, at close to 6%, has raised its dividend every year for some 36 years. FPL at 4%, has an earnings growth rate of about 7%.

Do these look like low risk investment to you?

Equating a stock's dividend yield with an expected annual return doesn't make a lot of sense.
