CEO Jamie Dimon said yesterday that investors will likely see no dividend increase coming from JP Morgan in 2010.
If there is only one factor that you use to evaluate dividend stocks, it should be their cash flow and specifically their free cash flow.
Increased dividend tax rates could provide investors yet another incentive to sell stocks.
Dividends are why stocks generate better returns than bonds over the long term.
We tend to focus primarily on identifying good dividend stocks to buy and probably don’t give enough attention on when to sell dividend stocks.
IBM announced yesterday that its Board of Directors has approved a quarterly dividend payment of $.55 per share.
