The worth of a company should not depend solely on its dividends. You should also consider cash flow for the company. If IBM earns $2 per share but only distributes a dividend of $1 a share, should the share price reflect the $1 dividend or the $2 earning? If IBM then uses the $1 that is not distributed as dividends, and use that money to invest, isn't that the same as you investing money to create jobs and products?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27697009.post-71455589093277132602007-03-26T19:09:00.000-07:002007-03-26T19:09:00.000-07:00Hi DbotsGo right ahead.

With credit to you and a link to this site of course. It looks like the latest data plot is right in line with the high estimate. Nice work!<BR/>-DamonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
