RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:BrutalTHank-you Anubis.... the best explanation for cause and effect upon Splits that I have read... and I read plenty.
It is your conciseness without ramble that instructs so very well.
When I discovered Splits, I thought I'd found the perfect Investment esp those which employ the 3-day, month-end pricing average to set the Div for the month following. Fed rate rises illustrate well that every sort of Investment is vulnerable to the sways of the Fed Rates.
For all the contributors, mouserman, Ed Paquette, Pile of Excrement, yourself Anubis, as well as Others, I extend my appreciative THanks for all you do, and especially for your indulgence of a 6-8 month Newbie attempting to understand the vagaries of the Splits. Your good nature and patience sets this Board well above the many others I peruse.
Still interested in a couple of Splits beyond BK... DS and ENS , but extremely careful and principally standing-by while the sentiment and charts are in a " correction" mode.
GLTA rabbl !
