RE:RE:RE:Goods results
RE:RE:RE:Goods results "But the dividend itself is keeping you even or ahead of inflation." The change-in-buying-power calculation shows that the dividend is NOT keeping up with inflation. Your buying power has fallen 3.74%
with the dividend. The dividend is recognized in the formula ("g").

(g-i)/(1+i) = (0.03-0.07)/(1+0.07) = -3.74%
Truly, nothing to cheer about.

But the dividend itself is keeping you even or ahead of inflation. Canadian bank dividends aren't....and neither are their increases......nor are almost all other 'blue chip' dividend payers. So really.....what's the point? Even a slight increase is better than none.....albeit barely.
