The offering is expected to close on April 3, 2012. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering to make investments in excess mortgage servicing rights and for other general corporate purposes, which may include, but not be limited to, the repurchase of indebtedness issued by its collateralized debt obligations, as well as investments in real estate securities and/or other real estate related assets. Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Citigroup are the joint book-running managers for the offering.

6/22
On the 14th this was released:
Newcastle Investment Corp announced that on June 12, 2012, it completed the first closing of its co-investment with Nationstar Mortgage LLC related to their acquisition of mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) from Aurora Bank FSB, a subsidiary of Lehman Brothers Bancorp Inc. The first closing relates to MSRs on two government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) loan pools with an unpaid principal balance of $16.1 billion. Newcastle is acquiring the right to receive 65% of the monthly cash flow generated by the MSRs, net of a base fee paid to Nationstar. Newcastle will not own the servicing rights and therefore will not have any servicing duties, advance obligations or liabilities associated with the portfolio. As previously disclosed, the closing of the investment in the remaining MSRs on the private label pools, is expected to occur on or about June 26, 2012, and the Company plan to post a presentation on its website outlining the entire Aurora investment at that time.
My guess was people loading up on the 22nd waiting for the 26th
7/26
Newcastle Investment Corp announced that it priced its public offering of common stock. The size of the offering has been upsized from 20,000,000 shares to 22,000,000 shares, for gross proceeds of approximately $147.4 million. In connection with the offering, the Company has granted the underwriters an option for 30 days to purchase up to an additional 3,300,000 shares of common stock. The offering is expected to close on July 31, 2012. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, which may include, but not be limited to, investments in excess mortgage servicing rights, non-agency residential mortgage backed securities, senior living facilities and other investments in real estate securities and/or other real estate related assets. Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Citigroup and UBS Securities LLC are the joint book-running managers for the offering. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. is serving as co-manager for the offering.
I don't have time to read up on it right now,
but at first glance it looks interesting!
Any idea what the volume spikes on the chart
are about?
3/29, 5/16, 6/22, 7/26 all had unusual volume.
and Thanks...
I appreciate your sharing :)
Once upon a time I was naive enough to believe that's what iHub was about.
I'm glad to stumble on to some like minded people once in awhile.
A guy on a board I read said it best
So i have NCT in my sights now. 10% div .22 a share per month! Now i just need to sell one of my crap Scam stocks i got into and buy into those guys.2008/2009 hit em hard and i think they were trading in the pennys, and in 2011 june they started producing divs and recently upped them to the .22 monthly.
On October 23, 2012, the Board of Directors of HCA Holdings, Inc. (the "Registrant") declared a cash distribution in the aggregate amount of approximately $1.2 billion (inclusive of the distributions to holders of stock options, restricted share units and stock appreciation rights as described below), or $2.50 per share of the Registrant's outstanding common stock (the "Distribution"). The Distribution will be payable on November 16, 2012 to stockholders of record on November 2, 2012 (the "Record Date").
I am a generally cheerful guy, yes.
Yeah i think this ones on the way to $4 plus by the look of the chart as long as Obama care doesn't screw em over. and thanks again i bought in at $2.30 and close of 2.70 three days later the future so far is looking a bit brighter.
Just come back when you actually dump it and tell us how much you made. Freakin' small time investors who have to post if a stock moves up pennies. They always forget to mention when they lose money.
So tell us your cost basis and sell target so we can all marvel at your genius.
P.S. You forgot to mention the other 20 or 30 LOL's that you add to every post.
Yep...LPHI is up about 10% from when I had the audacity to mention it here...
Gosh! I'm such a loser!
I wish I was as smart as that other guy...
LOL!
(NYSE:NEU) declared a special dividend in the amount of $25.00 per share on the common stock of the Corporation. The dividend is payable on November 27, 2012 to NewMarket shareholders of record at the close of business on November 7, 2012.
Oct. 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- LyondellBasell (NYSE: LYB) today announced that its Supervisory Board has authorized the company's Management Board to declare a special dividend of $2.75 per share to be paid Dec. 11, 2012 to shareholders of record Nov. 19, 2012, subject to the adoption of a resolution by the Management Board, which is expected to occur Nov. 19, 2012. The special dividend of approximately $1.6 billion will return value to shareholders and will be paid with existing cash on hand.
derp? you guys are ruining what had
previously been a relatively quiet
but thoughtful little board. Go away
now or some big boys will take over
as mods, try me and see.
11.30 % div that pays .1033 monthly derp!
" you need to recognize that right now, companies who are heavily loaded with cash are trying to pay it out in special dividend forms before either candidate can change the current tax laws on corporations."
This will be a two month dividend news blitz,gone will be low dividend tax rates.
That's nice. Now what does that have to do with insane dividend stocks?
Some of these have been. However, you need to recognize that right now, companies who are heavily loaded with cash are trying to pay it out in special dividend forms before either candidate can change the current tax laws on corporations.
That is my post your quoting JA!. Also as soon as i get some more money i'm gonna avg down in JE since they are under their mid range and pay .1033 a share monthly.
YEAH i was just pumping my JE and met them through dividend interest <---- see what i did there lol.
BTW DAWN thanks for the LPHI info i got the low bid so far today and someone threw in a 60K wall. I'm sitting pretty +.11 so far and i don't think its going back to my buy in anytime soon!
What's insane are the premiums some ultra high div CEFs are getting these days. Most are terrible funds with extremely high likelyhood of payout cuts. Yet unsophisticed investors, many retired I presume, are paying for the ILLUSION of fat dividends. In some cases those funds are juicing the payout by returning shareholders capital to them (and collecting fees for doing that!).
No question theres a bubble in high dividend "products." A lot of elderly are going to get killed chasing divs. Some high yield funds are as toxic as the tech garbage they chased in the 90s.
Insane div stocks have been sucker bets in recent years. Fat dividends usually come from troubled companies. High div stocks and especially Closed End Funds that I follow almost invariably lag the market. That can been seen in the falling charts in your IBOX above.
: HCA) today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a special cash dividend of $2.50 per share to be paid to shareholders of record as of November 2, 2012 with a payment date of November 16, 2012
So your point was SOMEONE ELSE said they were "promoting" a stock?
Awesome point!!! wow! You finally nailed one!!!
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!
You're a HOOT, but I've got a LIFE...
Yes it is, and look who is was posted to. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!
Once again, you don't seem to be able to follow a discussion. You must be an awesome dinner date.
{your dining partner}...Sure was lovely weather today
{you} WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY TOAST? ARE YOU STALKING ME??!!
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
HERE is the post he was referring to:
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=80648848
Wow! That is NOT my post...
that is a post by Guitarmanlife on the JE board
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=80651637
NICE TRY!!!
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!OMG!!!LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!
here is the full SEC complaint...
http://www.sec.gov/litigation/complaints/2012/comp-pr2012-2.pdf
time will tell
sounds good i put my buy in for 100 shares at 2.15 in case they drop some!
in VOC, goes ex-divi on thursday, .46 this quarter, lower than expected hence the pps drop.. 11-12% divi in the 14-15 price range
It is below any support lines and trending lower. It needs to get above $11.72 currently to show any sorts of strength.
Their company is in the sell energy for less industry. The only thing they've got going for them is price. If someone undercuts them, their profit is cut tremendously. Or, they are forced to recut their price and start over again. Their growth projections are lofty and incredibly subjective. A 12% dividend is lovely, until the stock drops 20%. JMO, of course.
P.S. you have to screw with the 15% Canadian withholding tax also.
1. I said they DO pay a dividend and they DO. My point was, they also paid out a non dividend in the past. Sheesh! Try and follow.
2. and 3. it's a viatical company. Viatical companies will become illegal in Texas.
4. You bring up things like "phantom shares" and misuse the term. You don't even understand your own argument. How could I?
can't believe I'm wasting my time. Here, read this then come back and apologize. I'll be the one holding my breath...
http://www.nceo.org/articles/phantom-stock-appreciation-rights-sars
go watch the show. See if you can understand it. Then come back here and make more sense.
LOL! I never said naked shorting didn't exist. You'll have to show me where I've EVER said that.
However, it doesn't exist as nutcases like Mitchell from Deep Capture try to claim.
Oh, to answer your question, "who am I?"...I'm the guy who has been exposing scam stocks for about 12 years now. Ask around about me if you like. If people tell you negative stuff, assume they are scammers. If they tell you to trust me, they're probably on the boards for the right reasons.
I'm the guy with the 7 figure portfolio in search of real stocks.
WOW! That post was a lot of mumbo jumbo. I can't tell if you're agreeing with me or not.
From what I could interpret. You should not trust the CEO as he is lying to you.
I was correct about the margin acct. If you have a margin acct they can loan your shares out. The notification IS...YOU HAVE A MARGIN ACCT. Expect to have your shares loaned. No, they're not going to send you a letter saying pretty please.
Now, note the difference below...

If you don't believe that naked shorting exists
then perhaps you could do some reading here
http://www.deepcapture.com/the-story-of-deep-capture-by-mark-mitchell/
and there are many OTHER people who disagree with your "opinion" on that issue...
You want to know which part isn't true? Does "all of it" count as an answer? You are obviously believing garbage you read on a penny stock website, or else you are intentionally misleading on your own.
IF you have a margin acct., your shares can be loaned. There is no such thing as "loaned without your knowledge". That is an old penny stock wives tale.
LPHI does pay out a dividend, although in the past they have paid out money under the category of..."Extra, Special, Arrears, Participating, etc". This was last done in 2011.
There is also no such thing as "phantom shares".
This board seemed to be one of the few places on Ihub to get information on real companies. It disturbs me to see people, such as yourself, bringing in penny stock mumbo jumbo.
So again I ask, "who are you"?
Not true. Who are you?
I wouldn't touch this one either. Very ghoulish.
looks good to me buy under 11 reap dividends either hold long or sell at 14
Terrible looking chart.
Insider Own 50.90% LPHI...
I'm seeing a lot of potential here
IF they can get the SEC off their back!
:)
Here is some interesting information
on shorting/naked shorting/and the result of on divys...
"In order to determine whether your shares have been loaned out for use by short sellers, check the 1099 form sent to you by your broker. There are different sections in this form. If your shares have not been loaned out, then you will see that dividends have been paid and that amount will be noted in the "1099-DIV" section of the form. If your shares have been loaned out without your knowledge, then you will see that the income earned from LPHI shares is noted in the 1099-MISC section of the form, and you will see a payment called, "Substitute Payments in Lieu of Dividends or Interest." If you are receiving payments in lieu of dividends, these funds are taxed at ordinary income tax rates, not the special, lower tax rate paid on dividend income.
Additionally, if you purchased shares from a person engaged in naked short selling, you have what might be called “phantom shares” – the shares do not exist since the naked short seller sold shares he did not own. In this case, you would also see dividend payments that are reported in the 1099-MISC section of your form. This is because, since the shares do not really exist, the company did not pay a dividend on them. Therefore, the broker owes you the same amount of money in substitution for the dividend. If you have any questions regarding these payments, contact your broker as to the terms of your brokerage agreement. With regard to the tax consequences of these payments, please consult your tax advisor."
Here is one I'm looking into... LPHI...
I'm still digging, but it's worth a look.
The divy is good and due to their legal problems the pps
is WAY down!
If they can get the legal problems resolved the pps should get a huge boost...
and did after they announced their win against Texas...
but then it tanked again
(probubly bagholders bailing)
I'm thinking this might be a good oportunity to get in...
"WACO, Texas, Sep. 26 /BusinessWire/ -- Life Partners Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq GS: LPHI), parent company of Life Partners, Inc., announced today that Travis County District Judge Stephen Yelenosky ruled that the life settlement transactions that it facilitates are not securities under Texas law. Although subject to appeal, the ruling effectively ends the Texas Attorney General's suit against Life Partners, which had asserted that the 21-year-old company's life settlement transactions were securities under Texas law. In making its ruling, the Court denied all relief sought by Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott which includes an end to a temporary restraining order which will permit Life Partners to pay the $0.10 dividend it had previously declared to shareholders of record as of September 3, 2012. The court made the ruling after a two-day evidentiary hearing."
another article said there would be an appeal...
The backstory there...
"Life Partners Responds to Texas Lawsuit
WACO, Texas, Aug. 16 /BusinessWire/ -- Life Partners Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq GS: LPHI), parent company of Life Partners, Inc., announced today that the Texas Attorney General, acting for the State Securities Board, filed suit against Life Partners, Life Partners, Inc., its Chairman and President, Brian Pardo, and its General Counsel, Scott Peden. Pardo and Peden are also directors of Life Partners.
The suit seeks a temporary restraining order and appointment of receiver based generally on allegations that Life Partners' life settlements are securities under Texas law and that Life Partners made various misrepresentations in the sale of the life settlements, including misrepresentations about the life expectancies of the insureds.
Life Partners' Chairman, Brian Pardo, responded, "We deny the allegations in the strongest possible terms. First, the Federal D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals and Texas state courts have reviewed our life settlements and ruled that they are not securities. Secondly, we did not misrepresent our life settlements. The life expectancy estimates we provided to purchasers were made by a third party in good faith."
Pardo continued, "The allegation that we are nearing insolvency is spurious. It is speculation drawn from innuendo. The facts are that we currently have more than $10 million in cash on hand, $45 million in assets, and virtually no debt. Our financial ratios are solid, including a better than 5:1 current ratio at the last quarter. Our business has largely stabilized after the blow we suffered with the SEC enforcement action last year. Our net cash used in operating activities was $(1.8) million in the last quarter, $(1.9) million in the quarter preceding, and has averaged $(1.86) million for the last five quarters. Through sales of non-strategic assets in the last quarter, we increased our overall net cash by $1.4 million and realized net income of over $1.0 million. Given our asset base and cash position, our financial losses are manageable and do not threaten our ability to continue as a going concern. The objective facts refute the outlandish and irresponsible financial claims made in the suit."
Life Partners is the world's oldest and one of the most active companies in the United States engaged in the secondary market for life insurance, commonly called "life settlements." Since its incorporation in 1991, Life Partners has completed over 143,000 transactions for its worldwide client base of over 29,000 high net worth individuals and institutions in connection with the purchase of over 6,500 policies totaling approximately $3 billion in face value."
They are also fighting the SEC:
"Life Partners Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ GS: LPHI) responded today to notice that a lawsuit has been filed against it by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company believes the action is without merit and will vigorously defend itself and its officers.
Life Partners’ Chairman, Brian Pardo, stated, “It is very disappointing that the SEC has chosen to pursue litigation over issues that we believe have no merit and financial presentation issues that we do not believe are material. We have always done our best to deliver value to our shareholders and to run an honest and transparent company. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves against these meritless claims.”
The lawsuit targeted Life Partners Holdings, Inc. and certain of its officers, but no claims were filed against the company’s operating subsidiary, Life Partners, Inc., and the action has no effect on any of Life Partners, Inc.’s transactions or clients.
Life Partners is the world’s oldest and one of the most active companies in the United States engaged in the secondary market for life insurance, commonly called “life settlements.” Since its incorporation in 1991, Life Partners has completed over 137,000 transactions for its worldwide client base of over 28,000 high net worth individuals and institutions in connection with the purchase of over 6,400 policies totaling approximately $3 billion in face value."
No resolution of that yet, but I found this...LOL!
"Life Partners Holdings Announces Securities and Exchange Commission Sanctioned for Violation of Federal Rules of Civil Procedure
WACO, Texas, Aug. 20 /BusinessWire/ -- Life Partners Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq GS: LPHI), announced today that United States District Court for the Western District of Texas on Friday issued an order sanctioning the Securities and Exchange Commission for violating the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and ordering that federal agency pay Life Partners Holdings $5,000 in attorney's fees.
The order, which was the result of a motion for sanctions filed by Life Partners, finds that the Securities and Exchange Commission violated the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure by taking the deposition of a non-party witness without proper notice to Defendants, without conference with opposing counsel and without asking leave from the Court.
In its seven page order, the Court stated that "administrative agencies are unquestionably bound by the rules when they are parties in civil actions." The Securities and Exchange Commission filed a civil action against Life Partners Holdings, Inc. and certain of its officers in January of this year. The company's wholly owned subsidiary, Life Partners, Inc., was not named in the civil action.
The company has previously stated it believes the action is without merit and will vigorously defend itself and its officers."

Thanks for the tip!
I don't have a 1/2 Mil to invest right now...
but hey, ya got to start somewhere
:)
I like that they put this out:
http://www.dividendchannel.com/quotes/?a=news&ticker=a&w=&story=2012070806233001.html
"As regards dividends, the Company's policy is clear. With the announcement of the Trust Tax in October 2006, it was perceived that all former Income Trusts must reduce their level of distribution to offset the incremental taxation at the corporate level. Since that date, investors have asked whether the then level of distribution could be sustained following the tax. At the time, Just Energy stated that its projected level of growth would allow it to sustain its distribution as a dividend following conversion and the growth seen over the period has allowed the Company to do so. As regards fiscal 2013, given the published growth forecast and results to date, management can confirm that there is no need to reduce the dividend within the Company's planning period. Accordingly, Just Energy reaffirms its $1.24 dividend."

I have done extensive research on numerous companies that pay dividends, but i know if everyone here at IHUB posts stocks or mutual funds that pays outrageous dividends, then we can all save tons of time and energy doing it ourselves.
I will post links to all that are worthy here in the IBOX.
thank you in advance to all that participate.
please post the highest % yielding dividend stocks that you can find.
Explanation of Dividend Dates
Ex-dividend: To receive a declared dividend the shares must be purchased before the ex-dividend date. If you buy on or after ex-dividend date you are not entitled to receive the current dividend.
Record date: The record date is the date by which an investor must be registered as a shareholder to be entitled to a dividend.
Payment date: The date of which the dividend is paid out.
You can sell the stock on the ex-dividend date of and still get the dividend but you would not make any money. Every time a dividend is paid, the closing price on the day before the ex-dividend is adjusted downward by the dividend amount.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
(Stock Dividend section)
Sometimes a company pays a dividend in the form of stock rather than cash. The stock dividend may be additional shares in the company or in a subsidiary being spun off. The procedures for stock dividends may be different from cash dividends. The ex-dividend date is set the first business day after the stock dividend is paid (and is also after the record date).
If you sell your stock before the ex-dividend date, you also are selling away your right to the stock dividend. Your sale includes an obligation to deliver any shares acquired as a result of the dividend to the buyer of your shares, since the seller will receive an I.O.U. or "due bill" from his or her broker for the additional shares. Thus, it is important to remember that the day you can sell your shares without being obligated to deliver the additional shares is not the first business day after the record date, but usually is the first business day after the stock dividend is paid,

TAX info
Dividends are taxed either as ordinary income or as qualified dividends. A qualified dividend is a dividend on which the issuing company has already paid tax. The dividend is then taxed again on the shareholder's tax return, but at a lower qualified dividend tax rate. The tax rate on qualified dividends is 5% or 15% (depending on the individual's income tax rate). If the individual has a regular income tax rate of 25% or higher, then the qualified dividend tax rate is 15%. If the individual's income tax rate is less than 25%, then qualified dividends are taxed at the 5% rate.
Ordinary and qualified dividends are reported on Form 1099-DIV. All dividends paid will be reported as ordinary dividends on Form 1099-DIV box 1a. Some or all of these ordinary dividends may be qualified dividends. Qualified dividends are reported on Form 1099-DIV box 1b.
Dividends are reported on Form 1040 Schedule B and Form 1040 lines 9a and 9b
