I see what you mean about debt with their recent acquisitions costing a bunch. But, for now, they just increased the dividend again, and, hey, it goes ex on January 9.

I'm also looking at Ford as a dividend play. It's above 7% at current prices.

I had a stop set on Microsoft which got triggered. So now I need to put the money somewhere.. lol
