But the amount of debt relative to revenue matters too. As do the interest rates of the debt, when it will actually come due and what the carrying cost of the debt is relative to both their other fixed expenses and revenue. Not that I really care at the moment either. I am out of both of them right now.

SA, this exchange has taken a turn into the bizarre. I feel like I am trying to explain gravity to you. Simple question, using your logic, would a company with $97B in long term debt be a bad investment? What if their LT debt was 'only' $17B four years ago? Sounds like certain impending doom and clearly a company that deserves a single digit PPS. Wouldn't you think? Their dividend is measly too, less than 2%. This debt is 8 TIMES the debt level of WDC. What would be the appropriate value for this stock? I anxiously await your response because I am thinking of buying some. UWG
