John LOL on the TA prediction...that is the only chance we have. They just have not figured out how to hide volume and trend lines. The only way that they tip their hand. earnings/share vs dividned/share= earnings per share is not something that you "get" as a share holder, but a ratio based on the bottom line "net profit" from earnings for the quarter past or year end. This is what PE is figured on also. Dividend/share IS something that you get as a benefit from the co. for holding their stock. Most are fairly small compared to the gains from price rise. For instance ENN (a reit) pays about 10% per year in dividends for holding the stock, but you must be a shareholder prior to the ex div. date. There are some folks that play ex div. dates....own the stock 3 days prior to ex div. collect the div. then sell the stock right after the div. settles. Stocks generally move to the up side just prior to the ex div. date also because of this div. gathering strategy. Hope all of this long winded explaination helps. Ken
