O was recently downgraded by RJ&A to Market Perform due to lower EPS guidance from Management and much higher vacencies from the Crest division. This division was started 8 years ago. The credit crunch has crimped their style as financing for buyers has dried up. Chart is ugly with 2 out of 5 positive. Not worth the 6% dividend in my view.

Don’t do that!!!
Don’t load up on anything….
“O”; Realty Income, is a wonderful company….
And over the recent years, there have come more
wonderful opportunities for great monthly dividends,in growing companies. And don’t forget
the quarterly income dividend companies.
You want to plan a little better, when a dividend
comes each 3 months, instead of every month;
It’s do-able. I believe in diversification.
By all means consider Realty income…
But buy some other companies as well….
Amigo; There is no such thing as a “Sure Thing”.

howcome noone mentioned O which is “The Monthly Divedend company.They also offer OUI which seems to pay the most. I am thinking of buying 50 shares checking my monthly payoff and cashing in my 401k to load up on this “sure thing” ) which has been paying every month for something like 43 years.any opinions??

SageNot,
I’m more surprised to see my response than I am at yours’….I accidentally double-click, and thought the computer was assuring me my labors were on a collision course with Jupiter (God, I miss the 16th Century!).
I’d never heard of a book having been written about
ALD…I was astonished,but less-so, when I noticed it was written by Einhorn himself…Now there’s an
unimpeachable source….
While several words didn’t make…I’ll stand
by the rest…
I shouldn’t then have switched horses on you.
My comment about the 24% dividend,was not meant to
imply I thought that MatRocks 24% dividend CSI,
was a tanker stock. I know tanker stocks. I also
know to be suspicious of very high dividends that
shouldn’t be.
Switching horses again…
What “book” of mine are you talking about? You were basing your attacks on Allied Capital on a book written by the very person who’s charges and
lawsuits against ALD (All declared False and unsubstantiated by the hearing “District Courts”
;Not me), have coincided with shortsells, by Greenlight, on the stock. Now, I’m not a suspicious person…
But,re-a-lly!!!.
ACTUALLY (Whoops). Actually; It astonishes me that such a “management-goofs” prone company, has been so successful these past “50″years…Everyone must be wrong about ALD…Except David Einhorn.
I’ve been in investments much too long to be blind
to all the pitfalls surrounding companies…
ALD certainly hasn’t done everything right…It is
humanly error prone…As are we all.
The winner is seldom judged by perfection…
The winner is he who makes the fewest mistakes.
(Now let’s see to what planet this one goes)
