It was interesting to see the criterion you had for payout ratio (i.e. , 60%). I had made a couple of posts last week asking what others had thought about payout ratios of some stocks mentioned on this board and got no replies. ERF, for example, has a payout ratio of 452% according to yahoo. VZ is at 102% compared to T which has a payout ratio of 50%. O seems to be a popular core holding for this board's regulars and it shows a payout ratio of 178%, GOV is at 194%. With payout ratios this high, are the dividends sustainable? Are there extenuating circumstances that would downplay the significance of the payout ratio?
