Those opportunities still exist for all those companies you mentioned and the ones yet to sign. It is my opinion that this is where our "Institional" investments will ultimately come from. All of the major firms, IBM, TXN, APPL etc, etc, etc, have investment arms of their respective companies.
I believe based SOLEY on claims contruction that EVERY SINGLE ONE of these companies put on notice should be accumulating our stock to help offset their cost, like AMD DID IMO.!!
You know these guys are not stupid. At some point this type of accumulation IS going to kick in BIG TIME! When it does, we are off to the races for good!!
