Another comparison with Zimmer's ticker is Wal Mart with an attractive dividend to investors. Mainly Amazon, but other online vendors taking a bite out of their apple had a result of halting growth there and stagnating growth on the 5 year chart. Wal Mart dividend yield is around 2%. Adjust that with the annual average inflation rate of 3%. Wal Mart is a dividend stock. It's not even a safe harbor against inflation any more. There WAS room for profit on that stock but not on the dividend propping it up. Of course nothing bogged down this sector like medical devices are experiencing over mainly safety issues.
