bucker 2: Possibly. How safe is the [4.68%] yield? How many consecutive years has the company paid that dividend? Are they commited to paying and increasing dividends"? How "safe" is the stock? A 4.68% yield won't cover a 40-60% decline in the price of the stock. I think you've got something in mind; convertibles, preferreds, convertible preferreds, the writing of covered options>...A gentle bit of loan-sharking [just kidding.]
