great dividend, great management

I got into this stock last summer, and with consumer debt at record levels as well as foreclosures rising, I see even more growth ahead.

Day rates keep on rising means contracted revenue growth.

High oil prices means that people will go to greater trouble to drill the oil, which means more business for slb.

Although flash prices are down, these lower prices mean that it is much more likely that a laptop can be built using flash instead of a hard drive and not be priced through the roof. This would be a huge spike in demand for flash memory, and mu would be a huge beneficiary of this.

Great dividend, and I also like the wireless segment. If FIOS turns out to be a good investment then vz will have a really good thing going for it.

global growth, and never a bad thing to be in buffet's largest holding.

a lot of people think its dependent on housing, but its really another good play in global growth
