Maybe he's in on the IPO and the yield is set at 7.5 on the IPO price?

Hey Joe ! Oooh do I envy my GA. farm boy. The best place I ever lived was on a working 60 acre farm.

re the bond, I took the word of my trusted broker ( i know, a difficult concept ) on that divi.
Hopefully it will be put in ink b4 long and I can praise his accuracy yet again.


lo and behold I was just reading about the Smart car and wondered if you still have your farm toy and still like it. http://autos.aol.com/article/smart-fortwo-buy-again/

Carry on Southern Man!

Joe , I"m guessing now , but maybe the 7.1% avg at Black Rock http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-08-27/blackrock-s-stattman-joins-miller-betting-on-large-stocks-as-growth-slows.html
may have had some bearing on the expected dividend.

<<Stattman, whose BlackRock Global Allocation Fund returned 7.1 percent a year over the past decade>>

JOE,Black Rock BBN was a bust, stopped out for -2.20
Broker would have me give it time, haha, but I'm on a strict system of preventing sizable losses.

750 shrs

I confess to being filled with trepidation when you made your assessment. My broker has been very good to me, so I went.

No wonder you make the big bucks;-)0

PS, I am glad to say silver has been a very nice score for me over the past few months so not losing sleep over this;-0)
