DPS=Div/yield .41/2.38 and cost 68.94
PEP=Div/yield .65/2.74 and cost 95.65
All 3 looking at the 5yr start lower on the left and get higher on the right. Are you better off purchasing more of one stock and earning multiple Div or purchasing less stock and earning a higher Div? I'm sure the name of the game is to try and figure out which one is going to do better long term and thats what you should base you choice off of. But lets just say for discussion sake that they are going to continue to perform equally.
Or am I trying to make it to simple?

You failed to add to the thought process the TOTAL RETURN of the 3 --- go back and check those numbers out then come back. I'd do it for you but I won't. Ya gotta do the work on your own. See if the TR helps you make the choice.
