A Real Dividend Growth Machine: Q1 2013 Review [View article]
Looking for a future Apple, some thirty years before it explodes in the headlines, is not a sound strategy in my opinion. For every Apple, there are many, many relative failures or disappointments. Slow and steady wins the race.
KMI won't be one of those disappointments, I just wish I had had more money before the new year

The B shares are listed in the UK, the A shares in the NL, so no withholding on the B shares ONLY, due to the tax treaty with the UK.
Edit: I mangled the technical terms, but the point is the B shares have no withholding, and I think they work in dollars...could use some clarification on that though...
SCCO does not have a forward yield of 29%. Take out the one time payment in the last dividend from the lawsuit settlement with Grupo Mexico(my calculation is 2.75-2.47=0.28), and you are left with a forward yield of 3.6%
Thanks for the article, it confirms my bias toward SCCO as perhaps the best of a tough lot.

Some of these comments make me think either you people don't know how to read, or you don't know what "communist" means. Obama may not be what you wanted, but he is a Chicago school capitalist to the bone.

"I was merely pointing out that the logic didn't add up"
That's what I agree with. The bias against dividends that I referred to was not from any one of us, but from the market. At least, that was my hypothesis: because the facts don't seem to make sense when you isolate them in an abstract logical sense. I understand the apparent contradiction, and yet the evidence is written on Chuck's graphs. The difference between theory and evidence was what suggested to me some subtle bias (not so subtle in certain individuals)

Yes, and the better the company, the better they are at passing along the difference. Either way, ya gottsta pay.
But this way there is less to leave to those with aristocratic pretensions. Much better for society in my opinion. The last thing we need is for our rich to take off like the Ponce de Leon, or was that Mademoiselle Antoinette?

Fascinating. I have been following the B shares, so thanks for the tip. I don't typically DRIP, but I was considering it in this case

I am also old enough to remember that everybody called them the "Tar Sands", before the oil company PR took over near the turn of the century.
Interesting point of fact on the history from the eyes of this local.
