Investing 102

[GregWeld]

BTW -- Using Annaly (NLY) is just using it for an example. I'm not saying anyone should be in the name - in fact - it's most likely an INAPPROPRIATE investment for most - and especially for people that are NOT watching the market - and or interest rates etc. It is not a buy and hold investment. It is highly interest rate sensitive and will get hammered (perhaps) if we get interest rates moving to the upside.

I am NEVER trying to recommend stocks/investments. I'm only trying to get people to see actual results by using some of my own personal investments.

If I read this correct... 1000 shares of this (10K VALUE) WOULD PAY 1109.00 Dividend per Month?



Open 10.76

EPS (Trailing 12 mo.)
1.672

Dividend Yield 11.16%
Monthly Dividend 0.1015
Ex-Dividend Date 5/29/12
Dividend Payable Date 6/22/12

No, it would pay $101.50 per month. 11.16% is annual yield.
