Gross margin turned up 0.6 points on the quarter after a year of falling, and it turns on a 68% gross margin with 47 cents of every revenue dollar kept as operating profit, 28% on capital and $7.3bn of net cash, so the turn is happening on the best cost structure in the candidate set. The market has been paying less for it while the engine ran: price +2% over twelve months against revenue +19%, a multiple down 14%. The strongest fact against is that the turn is small and the year is still negative, gross margin -1.2 points y/y, with revenue decelerating 2.6 points versus last quarter, so one quarter does not make a trend. I sell if gross margin rolls back over next quarter or the revenue deceleration widens.
