What don't I get?

You buy equities looking for capital gains?  Big surprise.

I buy equities looking for a great, sustainable dividend.  Sometimes I get some capital gain, sometimes I don't.

If you want to compare notes, here goes.  April 28 I bought 585 shares of FN at an ACB of $23.07.  It closed Friday at $25.44.  That is greater than a 10% gain in a month.  The problem is, I really didn't buy FN for the capital gain, I bought it for the sustainable 8% yield.  If I get a capital gain, that is just a bonus.  If the price climbs to the point I feel it is overvalued on a risk/reward basis WRT the yield, I will sell it and purchase something with a greater sustainable yield.  At this point, I will just keep collecting a great dividend.

As for the size of my 'truck', only my wife knows how big that is.

As for research, I spend as much time as I need to.  The rest of my time is spent working so I have more money to invest each month.
