DFN holders are feelers. FTN holders are thinkers.

I own both so I don't know what that makes me. All I know is that I'm getting paid $1000 monthly from DFN and $1005 from FTN. (Not even counting my unofficial cap gains from both) So basically, you can call me anything you like as long as it doesn't cost me any money.  :)) GL.

My post was an answer to mouserman. If you read his comparison of the 2 stocks he basically said owning DFN is not a good thing.

Yes I realize that and mine was said in a joking manner.  That's why I ended it with :)),  was hoping you understood I was joking. GL.

The reality is, "owning" the commons of any split is not a viable investment for "most" people. Unless one can nail near the bottom (very difficult) it is too risky to hold outright. My average in DFN is not low enough for me to own it so I flip in and out for now widdling my average down each time. Maybe I will get it low enough one day to comfortably hold it constantly
