Mark, the div is .45 quarterly so Mike is right on that. The PE is a mystery. Yahoo says they made 7.16 last year. Either one-time gains or just wrong.

Yahoo research expects 1.22 for yr ending Dec 98

so current PE is closer to 30. Says they made 3.83 last year. Kind of confusing. Gotta wonder how long they can pay 1.80 if earnings are below div. Earnings are expected to jump substantially this year but that may be tough with these prices..
