INTC still makes a big profit and isn’t going to run out of cash anytime soon. I’d guess the dividend is safe going forward. I personally like MO better as a dividend play.
September 28, 2012 at 9:56 AM #751998anParticipantIs 4% that big of a deal to get you to buy INTC? QCOM is giving you 1.6%, MSFT is giving you 3%, CSCO is also giving you 3%. Is an additional 1-2% in dividend enough to swing you one way or the other. I personally buy tech for growth and not dividend. I have some dividend specific stock that gives you much more than 4%. AGNC is giving me 14.5% right now. I also have CEL, who’s currently giving me 11.5%. On top of that, I bought it when it was $6.xx, so I’m also up over 30%.
September 28, 2012 at 11:22 AM #752007enron_by_the_seaParticipantI sold INTC around this level last year thinking that it was done going up… So what do I know 🙂
September 29, 2012 at 8:29 PM #752069moneymakerParticipantThe dividend payout is based on pennies per share, so the lower the share price goes the higher the interest rate goes. That being said I would definitely buy Intel right now. Why? Because when Microsoft releases their new OS in less than 30 days people will buy up stocks that have anything to do with computers. So it is not a decision based on value but rather what will the stock do between now and the end of the year. This viewpoint is based on an amateurs perspective of trading and the markets, and I’ve never lost money on a stock yet,that alone should tell you something about my experience level, so take it with a grain of salt.

Even after today, I’m still up 31% on CEL. ~5% of that 31% is from dividend. So, as long as their dividend maintains, I’m not too worried. Their current P/E is 5.76. So, I’m not too worried about cutting of dividend either.

Why? …..HP is on it’s way down… The PC industry is crumbling, HP has no mobile story. It’s services business is a complete disaster. Meg is at the helm and gonna make fiorina look like an angel.

I started watching AGNC from this post. The 14.5% dividend sounded to just to good to be true, it was.

The 14.5% dividend sounded to just to good to be true, it was.[/quote]Why would you say it’s too good to be true? I’ve been in AGNC for over a year and their dividend have been around there thus far. Due to the recent decline, the % actually is higher at 17%. If you compare it to the DOW over the last year, they’re about even. If you compare it over 5 years, it’s well ahead of the DOW.
November 13, 2012 at 9:51 AM #754607desmondParticipantAt least to good to be true if I would have purchased at the time of your original post. The stock price has dropped 16% since then and looks to drop even more. I would not want to wait for the stock to “come back” to break even with my investment just to get a large dividend. I prefer stock appreciation with a smaller dividend. I will keep an eye on AGNC though. jmo.
November 13, 2012 at 9:55 AM #754610CoronitaParticipantPersonal opinion…Dividend play is over….Tax policy is changed. You won’t get the 15% cap rate moving forward. More likely ordinary income. There’s gonna be better ways to do it….
People aren’t gonna be playing this game moving forward. It’s what was driving some of the activity…
Start looking for alternatives.
