RE:RE:This is a value trap. All I am trying to point out, is that you are getting paid to hold till the deal goes through. The share price will not go over and above 32. I have held it and traded it around 35-32-31 and was recently holding a 30.90 share price, but decided to invest into PLI and gain 6% in one day...
Anyway, the point I am making is that there is still a ton of time left before the deal goes through and you are paid to hold. You will get the div and historically, raising the div has not increased the share price looking at a 5 year chart.
Going forward, I suspect LONG TERM the share price will go up, but it is worth while to find a div stock that has medium term growth as well as pays a div. Look at Chorus Aviation for example.
