March 19, 201214 yr This is a "good" thing; right? I assume it is. You'll get $2.65 per share you own.
March 19, 201214 yr If you guys are into value investing at all, I'm taking a very cool class on it right now. Some stocks we've looked into include Haliburton (HAL), Compass Minerals (CMP), Corning (GLW). Also, what sites do you use to trade? I just set up an E*Trade account recently for myself.
March 19, 201214 yr I think I'll load up the truck and move to Beverly... ..."Hills," that is -- swimmin' pools, movie stars. (It's up 1.15 so far today at 590) Time to sell? Not all but time to take some profit? If not, at what price will you sell some or all?
March 19, 201214 yr You'll get $2.65 per share you own.Awesome! I also read that this move (issuing dividends) will open up the stock to investment by certain funds that do not allow investing in non-dividend producing stocks. This should serve to drive up the price. Also, the stock buy-back will concentrate the ownership, which, I would think, will serve the same purpose.

I'm in Corning right now. I use Tradeking. It has cheap trades. I have nothing bad to say about it. I don't do any research on there though. I do research other places online.
