  • Dividends: The Secret to Long-Term Returns [View article]
    Claudio,

    Your response is very far from the truth. Asides from a few exceptions the only companies cutting dividends are financials. There are a ton of stocks raising their dividends, right under your nose.

    Owning small portions of good businesses you understand (also called shares) has always been the way to prosper in this country. Few if any people have made much money with active trading ( now I exclude money managers and brokers, who make money no matter what by charging you commissions)
