Which Dividend Stocks Are Relatively Safe?

I wasn't aware that DPO doesn't pay dividends. My account in State Street shows them as Dividends. If it is a distribution 80% of capital, are you saying it is a 20% equity fund? As for doing more homework, I see that I will have to now since I rely on this income whether it be dividend or not. Still I ask the same question, is it better to have large amounts of this DPO Fund or re-invest into escalating dividend stocks that double approximately every 5-8 years?

p.s. Thanks for the link, I'll be studying it for awhile.

Which Dividend Stocks Are Relatively Safe?

What about stocks like DPO? The dividends don't rise but they have been a solid performer as a dividend income stock $.167 for years. Is it better to have large amounts of this stock that is currently in a yield of 13.25% or to re-invest into escalating dividends that double approximately every 5-8 years?

I look at DPO as a good thing! I have pulled out from last year's 401K slump with this great high yield monthly income dividend stock. It is currently at 16.49 % yield and has been paying .17 per stock montly for over two years now. It has a solid performance record. I agree that we have to watch all stocks carefully and the minute it changes, I change as well.
