Ads you may know, the dividend which produces this very high dividend rate results from the liquidation of certain properties. As such, one would have to consider it a one-time pay out, and not a continuing dividend.


I just stumbled across this stock and am still doing my DD.

The following URL will give you the details to your question:

Basically, they are shutting the thing down. One asset remaining,which should be worth between 68 and 78 cents in July. At that point, remaining funds transferred to a liquidating trust ... you pay taxes as if you had *received* the remaining funds ... which will run for three years, spewing out maybe 20 cents per share.


Current price 81 cents. Close to fully valued, I'd guess.


BUT! See this url for additional info:

(If that doesn't work, go to Edgar, look up PCT's 10-Q dated 5-12-98, and check out Item 5 in Management Discussion.)
