I don't have any of those except GILD, and GILD has been slightly better than cash. I've had the stock for several years and it's actually down over that time, but the dividend is large enough that I'm getting about a 2 percent annual return. That's not going to cut it in the long run, but I've been holding the stock because it's (slightly) better than holding cash and I'm already holding more cash than I should.
I have no idea what the prospects are, but something needs to change for it to be promising.
