gogo - Why are you look at FTR?

Georgi, FTR pulled a fast one when they cut their dividend dramatically after issuing a press release stating that the dividend was safe. The stock now trades at a discount to its peers and still offers a higher dividend than its peers. FTR carries a lot of debt with a large chunk due and payable next year. They don't have much cash, so the div. cut is understandable. The payout ratio is now just over 40%. I don't know why Yahoo has 500% or what Google has. So, overall FTR is a value play relative to its peer group and now has a generous and substainable dividend. I don't own it and won't be buying because the same management is in place that lied about the safety of the dividend. I had followed Ditchdigger into FTR and he was more nimble than I in getting out.

So, overall FTR is a value play relative to its peer group and now has a generous and substainable dividend. I don't own it and won't be buying because the same management is in place that lied about the safety of the dividend. I had followed Ditchdigger into FTR and he was more nimble than I in getting out.

Georgi, FTR pulled a fast one when they cut their dividend dramatically after issuing a press release stating that the dividend was safe. The stock now trades at a discount to its peers and still offers a higher dividend than its peers. FTR carries a lot of debt with a large chunk due and payable next year. They don't have much cash, so the div. cut is understandable. The payout ratio is now just over 40%. I don't know why Yahoo has 500% or what Google has.
