    Just how is FITB cutting their dividend good timing on your part, especially considering you baghold their largest shareholder (CINF).

    "Most investors are told to buy when everyone else is selling." Thanks but I prefer to buy when everyone is buying.     Reply

    FITB is now paying a 6.5% yield. My bet is that gets smaller later this year too. Reply

    Don't forget to consider Countrywide as an entry for BAC. It's running about 90% of the deal's value, which I don't think is enough of a spread to cover the risk involved, though there has been no indication of BAC backing away. If you're interested in BAC and want to play arbitrageur, consider CFC if the spread widens. Reply

    I think BAC has too much pride to cut their dividend. The credit spreads are really coming into a more normal range. If BAC can really make $4/share in the next 12 months, I think they will be able to afford their dividend with breathing room. Reply

    I'm sure BBT will perform because it has already indicated it plans to INCREASE its dividend. It has a share buyback program but there are no current purchases because they suspend buying in the last month of a quarter. They are very conservative and have adopted the rationale that it would be like insider trading once they know how the quarter is shaping up. Also, the market doesn't understand that the tax ruling in its case (which has caused current writeoffs for other banks) will not affect it any further. As it was its own legal case, it had already accrued the potential liability and has already paid all of the taxes. This is an incredible bargain and yield while waiting for the sector to recover.

    I've been looking at BAC for a while now, but can't seem to pull the trigger. The problem with banks is that they are a black box, I have no idea what is inside. Another problem, is that I see a Democratic congress and President curtailing a chunk of their revenue streams, namely, usurious interest rates and fees. Reply

    Actually my timing for posting this couldn't have been better - FITB just cut their dividends today.
    I am still wondering whether BAC will cut or not. Most investors are told to buy when everyone else is selling. The $1mln question is to buy financials or not to buy them.
    In early 2000 Phillip Morris ( Altria) was yielding higher than average yields at a time when the tobacco industry was under tremendous scruitiny. Fast forward 8 years from that point and MO has performed pretty well. I haven't bought any financials yet ( other than the ones which I have disclosed), and the reason for that is because the payout ratios are pretty high for me.
    I wonder if 8 years from now I would be kicking myself for not purchasing all of the 20 stocks listed above or not..

    Global Giants and Diversifiers To Supercharge a Portfolio [view article]
    BTW, M* Portfolio Manager now shows 3 years standard deviation of a portfolio. It also shows Expected Annual Return in the Asset Allocator (AA) tool. When I entered Geoff's "modified David Swensen's" allocation into these M* tools I got the three years SD at 11.45, same as Geoff got from the QPP. However, the expected annual return at the AA tool shows 7.5% vs. Geoff's at about 10% for the next three years. It would be interesting to wait and see which is right. M* AA also shows a possible 3 month loss of 10.3%, for this allocation (from today). Reply

    Hi, since when Morningstar's Portfolio Manager, in the "Transaction"... mode, updates account's (ticker's) number of shares without entering it manually, all the time? Reply

    Hi Roger --

    Yes, you can calculate the monthly returns based on Yahoo! historical quotes or you can enter a transaction portfolio into Morningstar and they will keep track of it for you. You would still need to use Yahoo! to get the historical prices when you set up the portfolio, but from then on Morningstar would have it on autopilot for you. Good luck with it.     Reply
