Verdict: Hold only if you accept the risk of an unsustainable dividend; wait for signs of stabilization in the US and China before adding to the position.
Main risk: The -47.8% earnings decline and 98.59% payout ratio put dividend sustainability at risk, which is the stock's main attraction at these levels.
