Newbie question here. If the dividend is reinvested do I still pay a brokerage fee for buying that 1 stock? so would it be better to save a years worth up then buy more.

Not sure on your brokerage, but i know for sure with Sharebuilder i DO NOT pay a fee to reinvest the dividend.

Looks like todays been a good day to me on the market.. I've finally got slightly over a 1% total gain back in my port, and got 2 more shares of NLY thanks to their dividend today.

A couple things I noticed about Coke, that $40 initial share price is $547 in today's money. And, look what the company did during the great depression. Maybe it was the cocaine in it that helped.

Greg, don't forget this is Investing 102, I had to look up exogenous.
