RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:I love volume : )yes the divy is paid as stated each month...if it were to pay out less, they would tell you each month..If you were to buy today, you would be settled in by Jany 31 and would receive your 10 cent per share in February....They can afford to pay out as they are invested in great stocks that have nice divy and share appreciation....Banks, telecom, O&G etc.. Many of these companies have increased their divy pay outs as well.....Sure makes retirement or living in a third world country with holdings that pay out nice dividends....
