RE:RE:,,,,,,,,,,,,,Classic SELLERs REGRET...........??????????I hadn't finished reading your response as i had stopped at the ridiculous statement that yield on cost is more important than current yield. (as I just explained in the last posting)
I just saw the 113% capital gain statement. I would definitely not have that as I was selling in the > $45 range and would have a capital loss. I would also have way less accumulated dividend income as I bought higher yielders than the low < 2.5% currebt yield on PKI when I was selling.
Total win-win for us.
To top it all off their were actually 3 reasons for selling
1) yield was too low
2) no longer fit in with one of our desired sectors
3) were doing too many dumb acquistions (ie: were in the grow at any cost/CEO get my bonuses mode)

Here's an example that I hope you can comprehend.
If I have $10k invested in 250 shares of a stock whose price is now $40 and has a divy of $1 (ie: current yeild of 2.5%), I would get $250 in dividend income per year. If I sell that and buy 250 shares of a stock that has a price of $40 but a dividend of $2 (ie: current yield of 5%), I would get $500 in divy income per year.
Capiche??

Does NOT MATTER What the CURRENT Dividend Yield IS__
What Matters IS What YOUR
ACTUAL Yield IS on YOUR Adjusted Cost for YOUR Shares. THUS with the Current Dividend RATE @ 34 Cents__
YOUR YIELD NOW Would BE 7.3 % ALONG WITH a GAIN of 113 %__
HAD You KEPT all Your PKI Holdings eh !!!! Likely THIS WAS the Reason For
YOUR BASHING of ParkLand a YEAR AGO Along
WITH Your BUDDIE DeanEdmonton eh ????
Made You FEEL GOOD That You HAD MADE a GOOD MOVE by DUMPING all Your
PKI shares eh ????

Hey Red
Thanks for the heads-up. Sounds like another good take-over.
As I've mentioned.
I bought PKI in Oct 2013 at $18.58 as a dividend income stock but it sure has morphed into a growth stock. In the end, I guess it just means the kids will get a bigger inheritance as it sure is a big capital appreciator.
