(^_^) no man, this be da ex -dividend date boogie-woogie: beat me daddy, 4 to the bar, uh - year. no chit, man - pull up a chart of DTD - Detroit Edison 8.5% QUIDS and lemme walk you through this tune. now dig. DTD pays USD $2.125 as $0.53125 4x a year. The silly thing orbits around 25.375 nominal = 8.374% APR yield. ok, now da down-beat begins tomorrow, ex-dividend day; target = 25.125 +/- 0.125 which is 8.45771% APR yield. If you can get it at 25, you got a cool 8.5% yield with a 1/8 point downside and > 99% probability of making 1/2 point upside before the next ex-dividend date. Scalp City, man. Now da DTD up-side target = 25.625 +/- 0.125 which is 8.29268% APR yield.
