RE: EXC

Just a couple of thoughts ..

1) Dividend payout ratio is greater than 100%
2) Flat dividend for 17 straight quarters

So we have a company that is

1) Not currently earning their dividend
2) Not currently raising their dividend

Right now it looks/feels like a "value trap" to me ..
I'd wait until the company announces a dividend reduction and re-evaluate ..
It might become a "value play" at that point ..

Triff ..
