Subject: Re: Dividends
There used to be an excellent REIT board on the old site. One of the more knowledgeable posters pointed out that even in REITS, dividend was one of the worst indicators of total returns.

I have done well with high yield REIT preferred stocks this year and I think another good year or so is very likely, with 7-9% dividends and another 2-5% of capital gain.
