Perfect dividend stock if you ask me. ARCC

[Lime Time]

[Scotttrader80]

[pappi]

Woah, no one here no mo' to contemplate yesterday's impressive drop due to missed estimates?

Hello ARCC Board:

Surprised no one is here, this just having picked up ACAS. I'm wondering the logic of putting a chunk of my ACAS payout right back into ARCC.

Views?

[jump1]

Reported solid second- quarter results before today's market open, and the stock was recently trading 1% lower on the day to $17.72. Ares reported second-quarter earnings per share (EPS) came in at $0.38 a penny behind consensus at $0.39. Net asset value per share was $16.21, up from $15.98 in the first quarter and from $15.51 a year ago. Earnings were light as expenses came in modestly ahead of expectations. Not a bad quarter.

Hey -- Just getting back to you now... still have ARCC on my faves list. Haven't held it since $8. I'm looking for some high-yield divy plays. Any good ones on your list?

[swenglish]

holy quick reply! lol

yeah, it dipped quite a bit there, then bounced up again.

I just have no time to stay on top of the market lately. better to just get guaranteed small returns for now. gonna try and give myself 4 day work weeks next year, can play the market again, even if just a little bit

[creppie]

Been out for ages it seems. ;) The thing's still holding up well. Glad you made out!

[swenglish]

sold awhile back with a 40-50% profit, plus 2 divy payments

you?

[creppie]

How're you doing with this ARCC, swenglish?

;)

[swenglish]

Happy and holding?

[mahacovich]

Does anyone know why they borrowed the $200,000,000?
TIA

[swenglish]

I sent in the requests for options trading upgrades on 2 of my accounts a few weeks ago. From Sweden though and the post here seems really unreliable. I'm thinking they never reached my brokers and it's really annoying. Good luck on your options though!
*jealous

[creppie]

I'll tell you where the real money's going to be made... Traders who played put options on this pullback are up several hundred, some up to a thousand percent. It's worth keeping a keen eye for bottom on highly liquid, healthy equities. Buy up huge on calls as bottom sets in and watch the $$$ rack up. That's another plan I have. Hehe.

[creppie]

Yes, the end came a few days ago. I don't think these stocks come back to where they were at Dow 6500. I've got my eye on this for bottom and will hold a core position smartly. Who doesn't like a 23%/yr yield? (.35 at $6 pps purchase)

Thanks!!

[swenglish]

i got respect for your chart skills.

i'd love to see this hit $3 again though. i'll load up. is this the end of the over hyped rally that we've been hearing about forever now?

[creppie]

(ARCC) Fell south of its channel.

[creppie]

Yes, I did... I was worried there for a min when I couldn't find the statement in my account but upon closer inspection. Just thought the rest of my holdings did better than expected yesterday! Haha.

Cheers! :D

[swenglish]

Yup, good stuff. You?

[creppie]

You guys get your dividend?

[Seminole Red]

thanks swenglish....just keeping an eye out

[swenglish]

That's funny, I actually sold my PVX to buy this. The future of divvies on those trusts is uncertain. I'm quite ignorant about it but that's the jist of it as I understood it.

[creppie]

Furthermore, I think there are some decent opportunities out there right now with companies of similar caliber like PCX and PVX, more the latter than the former. PVX has a monthly divi that under $5 would come to 1.2% and about 16% over a year. ;)

[creppie]

You know I was playing it back then even. Bought it up at the break north of $5.75. I bet we have another great opportunity not quite like that but close coming to us over this summer.

[swenglish]

Welcome redfisher.

[swenglish]

crazy, man i wish i got in down towards the bottom of that big giant W. But still happy with my 19% yield. after your 2 res points around 6.5 it really broke upwards.

[Seminole Red]

thats a good sign

[creppie]

I can't believe this thing held the ascending channel.

[Seminole Red]

thats good to hear.

[creppie]

Yup, the yield isn't bad. I caught 4% on the last one. Watching now for good entry on the market pullback. $7.50 feels good to me but I can see it coming back further. It trades strong but its direction is generally in line with the indexes.

I also have a friend who works there. All is peachy with the co, growth anticipated.

[Seminole Red]

lol....i like the divvey for the cost...

[creppie]

Daily chart.

[creppie]

Ey-ohh!!! A third poster. Welcome aboard.

[Seminole Red]

theres alot of folks missing the boat here...imo

[swenglish]

Lol, I'll keep the ruffians under control. Thanks man.

[creppie]

Btw, you're now the assistant mod. The crowd on this board can get out of hand from time to time, so let's do our best to keep them focused. Feel free to dress up the ibox and delete my posts. ;)

[creppie]

But, here's the chart. ARCC has a tendency to outperform my expectations but I'm still cautious.

[creppie]

Well, news is always good. :)

Ares Capital Corporation Significantly Expands Middle Market Asset Management Platform

http://www.reuters.com/article/marketsNews/idINBNG46227020090616?rpc=44

[swenglish]

Some intense dropping. It seems to have dropped below your trendline on the ibox chart as well. What's your opinion on support levels? 50MA is at 6.48, this is on low volume though....

[swenglish]

yeah. strange. I think my buy-in was at 7.47, so i'm still good and holding long for divvy collections anyways. PPS increases are always nice though too.

[creppie]

Likewise. My ticker showed it having closed at 7.97 last night... but it really closed at 8.37 or something. That was the first tip of odd behavior. This all made holding for dividend pointless unless you got in 2 weeks ago down here to begin with. I suppose that's the point anyway... divy's for longterm holders.

[swenglish]

lot bigger drop than I was expecting for today.

[creppie]

Buy today for ARCC .35/sh dividend.

From current ask of 8.22, that's 4.25% yield. Not bad.
