Yes, so long as AAPL does not reduce the amount of the dividend they're paying. In other words, the stock is considered inexpensive.

Yes. The yield is still low.

Not yet a W&O stock.

[space-time]

what is W&O stock?

[Lux Interior]

Widow's & Orphan's stock.

The name given to "solid" stocks that pay a good dividend (i.e. low risk).
