JimisJim.. Thanks for the reply. Good to see that you are still around and participating.

Seems that FTR's focus on servicing the rural needs is a captive market for them with very little or no competition. I am debating to get in or wait later next year when the dividend picture becomes clear. Even at current share price, the PE is high at 34. Do you think the share price has hit bottom or more downward pressure?

I have changed my focus to entirely dividend holdings and away from mutual funds and non divvy.

<< have not held any AAPL since I changed my primary focus to divvy growth -- but also have no regrets holding AAPL from $3.51 cost basis until selling last shares at $380.>>

You did very well.

AAPL gained about 26% in 2011. I am still holding and will continue to for awhile :-)

All options now, though, Mostly Jan 2013 LEAPs.
