Resource Capital (RSO) declares $0.20/share quarterly dividend, in line with previous. Forward yield 13.66%. For shareholders of record Dec. 31. Payable Jan. 28. Ex-div date Dec. 27. (PR) [View news story]
The reason that the ex date is a couple of days before the shareholder of record date is because it takes a few days (2 I think) after the stock is purchased for the purchaser to become the shareholder of record and receive the dividend.

12 Rules For Buying Dividend Stocks [View article]
The same thing happened to me (flash crash, the market crashed sold my stocks at a loss and went back up in a matter of a few minutes or hours) and I lost the $6000 dollars I had earned in dividends in the first couple of quarters. Thankfully, because of the dividends I did not lose any principal. I bought my stocks back and later found out that I could not take the loss on my income taxes because I did not wait long enough to buy back. That was a bummer. I suspect that this was a manipulation of the market.
AIG's (AIG) advertising tagline at the moment may be "Thank you America," but it's board will today consider joining a $25B lawsuit that's being led by former CEO and major investor Maurice Greenberg against the government. The suit argues that the heavy demands of AIG's rescue, such as the government taking a 92% stake and the high interest rate rates levied, deprived shareholders of tens of billions of dollars and violated the Fifth Amendment.

I think you have a very naive conception of native americans. There was nothing peaceful about them, they were savage warriors who killed and tortured each other before they killed and tortured the white settlers in this land. It is correct to say that the Government dealt deceitfully with them as all governments have been evil and deceitful from the beginning of time. The history of the world is a history of evil and deceitful rulers with only a few exceptions. For the most part the government is a reflection of the deceitfulness and evilness of man. If the indians had been able to they would have wiped the entire white population from the face of the earth.
While it's questionable how much capital the Fed will allow Bank of America (BAC) to return to shareholders, the bank doesn't need D.C.'s permission to pick off some low-hanging fruit - redeeming Warren Buffett's $5B in preferred stock. The shares do not qualify as capital under new Basel rules, but BofA pays 6% on them, nearly double the average of its long-term debt. [View news story]
I don't think that BAC is going to call in WB's preferred stock. I don't know if it is even callable.

Well hell, if it so great why don't you buy instead of bitching about it. Aren't you an investor. BAC was by far my best stock for 2012.

Fourteen banks are reportedly set to reach a $10B settlement with regulators over abusive foreclosure practices such as incorrect paperwork and excessive charges. The banks include the five that agreed to pay $26B in another deal earlier this year - JPMorgan (JPM), Bank of America (BAC), Wells Fargo (WFC), Citigroup (C) and Ally Financial. The latest settlement will allow banks to end a review of 4M loan files that has cost 1.5B so far. [View news story]
Dividend stocks are attractive following the Cliff deal, says BlackRock's Russ Koesterich, noting just a modest bump in dividend tax rates affecting just a small ratio of taxpayers. Current low payout ratios give companies ample room to raise payouts. Avoid Treasurys, he says, and focus on credit sectors (HYG, PDI, IVR - just to name a few), and municipals (MUB).

You mean to give it to a fake green company that will be bankrupt before the ink is dry. I am convince that billions of the unaccounted for spending by the government goes into the pockets of government officials and their friends.

Right you are. It is much more profitable to the government to squeeze billions out of wrong doers that to put them into jail.
