This time around, I`ll take the dividend - I choose to interpret it as a ``thank you for you longs sticking with us`` gift.
I`ll undoubtedly re-invest the divident once it hits.
For the future, I`d like to see Patriot take profits and grow the company. If its internal expansion, great. If it`s building towards acquisition, fine. Although I like the idea of a cash machine, I`d like to see a tree grow from this acorn.
But then again, there is a simple beauty in a barebones operation designed to maximize shareholder value....
