I like the idea of bumping the dividend and doing buy backs. No doubt future cash flows will be like the dam opening up all the flow doors. If one leading company wants to buy up the competitors - they'd better hurry. If you have your market share wrapped up - then buybacks will ultimately make owning shares a really sought after asset. At all times I like the idea of stockholders getting a dividend increase. Many of us stockholders suffered through the 2000 - 2016 long dry spell. Its time we as stakeholders join in the fun as stock expenditures for ESOP having really scaled up the outstanding numbers. Semi's should really rock if/when this pattern holds up. Bob
