    I have just set up a margin loan

    interest rate = 7.5%

    some company divis are above the interest on the loan

    eg LEI 7.8%

    trouble is the divi yield is based on past earnings

    Interim 60.00 100 16 Mar, 09 31 Mar, 09
    Final 85.00 100 21 Aug, 08 30 Sep, 08

    total $1.45

    forecast 2010 $1.46
    divi yield = 8%


    perhaps we should be using '95 figures


    divi '10 = 12 c
    price = $18.35
    divi yield = less than 1%
