RE:Are the dividends safe?Short answer, yes, VERY safe. Should form a major part of every buy and hold investors portfolio, along with TD.
I noticed you asked this question on a number of different boards. The far better question would be, how do I analyse a stock properly, including the safety of its dvidends. Relying on complete strangers for investment advice is a poor way to make decisions. There are some total morons and trolls that post on these boards, as well as some excellent people. It is quicker to learn to properly analyse your own stocks than to figure out who knows what they are talking about. Best of luck.
