Prediction:
WITHIN 12 months DGS will consolidate shares. Look at a 10 year chart and notice each recovery is lower. It paid out 10x in the last year but the future is dim for DGS.

Ed, a recession might do it, if that is what you are predicting. I am not. DGS is still holding above pre-covid levels still whereas DFN which is paying more regularly is not. A recession will wipe out most, if not all, splits, not just DGS. Even SBC went into the ditch during covid. No split will be immune.

DGS got a one time windfall because of the war. Energy, fertilizer etc in the last year will not likely help in the coming year.

If so, then credit goes to the fund managers for buying into what was going to see higher valuations. You are assuming this is a stagnant basket of equities. Prior to covid, DGS had a stellar record of paying and no war that helped the cause. The managers are active here, I have faith they can adjust with the changing market landscape.
