markets are down:higher than exp. , page-3

A few points, all my opinion only:

1) Low volumes over last few days indicates that it is not a big sell off, potentially just those that are not willing to risk a bad report.
2) Today especially, QBE followed the market - up in am and down in pm.
3) Markets worldwide are looking for direction - a great opportunity to get into a solid, semi defensive company which is about to answer the market's questions.
4) QBE as a semi defensive is ideally placed and with broker estimates around $27 I feel growth is around the corner.
5) Although the report may not be magic, QBE is due for a run and it may be the prod it needs to jump up a few dollars over next few weeks.
6) Solid dividend expected although not fully franked.

Bring on the report and the dividend!!!
