I could be wrong. However I'm figuring even if the company can earn a buck next year. FWIW-If my worst case guesstimate is right? A PE 8 or 9 times forward earnings with a 2%+ covered dividend isn't to bad for myself moving forward. Especially in current market conditions. Some story stocks like IMPINJ and Tesla are taking some hits today. IMO if and when the market does correct. Low PE stocks will take a hit, but not as hard as story stocks and ones that have unrealized gains. RE-High PE's & momentum run ups.

FWIW- I was ready early this morning and picked some up at 8.28. Earnings weren't as bad as I expected. I knew some would dump early. Maybe the bots. <g>

Great trade and even better timing, IMO! Very well done. Too much on my plate the last few days, wasn't ready to nibble, let alone take a big bite.

Shares of Qualcomm Inc. QCOM, -0.02% rallied Friday following a report that Broadcom Ltd. AVGO, -0.08% was interested in acquiring the chipmaker. Qualcomm shares jumped 14% to $62.59 in recent activity, its biggest one-day surge since October 2008. This would be quite the Depp dish pie to swallow. I tend not to jump on late when it has already popped intraday and I was not aware real-time (ahem actual day job can get in the way lol). Will keep an eye out for any opportunity in either direction. cheers to folks here with recent wins btw.
