To Ann & All,

Thank you for your post!

Disney was downgraded last week! Does anyone know how many analysts
down-graded Dis? The story of the board disagreement with Eisner is
last year news! There are new problems with Disney productions that
can effect the earnings! I would like to know what is the problem?
Any Disney shareholders on this thread?

Thanks

Yaacov

Ann,

...MRK. I think I'll wait until the split to put that one in my long term portfolio. I'll get more shares that way...

Unless the stock is down from here at the split, you will not get more shares for the same money. ie:

100 @ $130 = $13000
3:1 split @130 on 100 = $43.33 on 300
if you spend $13000 you get 300 shares

Obviously, if the price is lower at split you can get more shares, if it is higher, you get fewer. If you think the stock is up from here, then it is better to buy now and run the whole way. You will be better off with more run up on more shares.

Regards,
dmg

Ann. Mrk. If you are interested in Mrk buy fewer shares now in order to participate in the rally before it splits. You do not have to buy 100 shares you know. Maybe we should can our stock.
