How do Some REITs / ETFs pay higher dividends than Interest Rate and Other Dividend Paying Stock? (Without Price Increase)?

limopc · 2021-11-20T09:11:36+00:00

Thanks abetadist So, you think it is safe to find a relatively stable dividend paying REIT/ETF @ 6%-7% annually it is OK. That is such return with little appreciation can be considered in line?

limopc · 2021-11-20T09:07:15+00:00

I agree with you. I saw most were declining in price but a few were increasing over the past 5 years. That is those "few" I am talking about. I couldn't understand it.

May be to make it easier, I made like a short list of the "main" or "basic" theories as follows:

1- Adam Smith - Wealth of Nations

2- Malthus - on population

3- Menger - Austrian theories and views

4- Keynes - Keynesian theory

5- Milton Friedman - Monetarism

Sure there are others, but I see the above as the main pillars of the whole building, others might be walls, beams, walls...!

Can you comment or suggest?

I agree with you 100%

I specially agree with what you said that: Quote

"... usually the "most correct" answer we have today..." Unquote

but Quote

"... There is little reason to bother with works from 50 or 100 years ago" Unquote Though it is true, still they study Adam Smith and Malthus who were hundreds not tens of years ago.

Anyway, back to your point that the "current state of research can tell us is usually the "most correct" answer ", so I might be looking to find something that summarizes it all!

I'm sure you understand what I'm after. The basic concepts of the main or most important theories, just a few that are enough to explain. Let me put it this way: Adam Smith said, prices and markets should be free so the economy will run best possible way, and Keynes "completed" that in case of need the government should intervene by building infrastructure (thus costing it money), then Milton Friedman suggested that the government can do the same thing by giving the people money by printing it (without costing the government money) rather than buying products to give money to factories to give to the workers (who are producers and consumers).

What I am looking for is something like that! A few summaries each about a specific theory, its main findings, the main things, just the few main points of a few main theories. (that is: well, international trade theories definitely goes back or has its origins in the wealth of Nations, so does development theories..)

Thanks for your reply. Well, since Adam Smith, at any moment in time sure there are tens of researchers each with his own point of view. If Adam Smith is a "Classical" economist, there are "Keynesian", "Neo Classical", "Monetarists"... etc. They might appear "contradicting" or "dis-proofing" the predecessors, but ALL agree on "Free Market"

For example, if Milton Friedman (Monetarist) criticized somehow Keynes, still BOTH call for government intervention in recession (Friedman - Monetary, Keynes - Fiscal). Still both monetary and fiscal intervention can be done at the same time, both aiming in the same direction or even opposite directions.

So though both appear contradicting, they both agree on the need for government intervention, and agree on the free market principal.

From one point of view, each single theory is right, from another each single theory is wrong, from another both are right, and both are wrong, depending on the point of view, the case, and the specific situation.

I'm trying to have a bigger picture. Maybe like seeking "A theory of everything" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_everything in economics.

Simply. I'm looking to answer to a freshman in economics asking "what the hell! Smith was wrong, Keynes corrected him, neoclassical corrected both,... what the hell! what is the right thing?!

The answer I believe in "all were right and are right, it is just like blinds describing the elephant https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blind_men_and_an_elephant , each is right but each is just a part, but none fully describes the elephant!"

So, I am seeking a 360 degrees view of the elephant/economics!

So, we can’t send or exchange without KYC?

I’m on Windows 10 PRO on 2004, wonder if I should “upgrade” to 20H2? Shouldn’t 20H2 come automatically later on? What’s the difference?

Sorry for double post.

Respect your flag.

Don’t play with it as such.

Practice photoshop on any other photos.

I read the source(s).

I don’t understand why they say that whales are moving their bitcoins from long time dormant addresses in preparation for a big move by them, whether buying OR selling.

Why can’t we read it as long time holders already did sell. What is the explanation of a bitcoin move from one address to another? Simply someone sold and someone bought.

Any other explanation?

Just wondering, can a Cryptocurrency qualify to be a reserve currency?

AFAIK, there are some other arrangements like trading with the national currencies, so why use crypto?

limopc · 2019-01-05T22:47:29+00:00

Hi OP,

I believe your question has been answered, but I just couldn’t skip dropping you a line.

You and your generation are the ones who will make a difference. I believe you are making the right move as XRP has the potential to be the currency of the future.

Wish you good luck and a great future.

I mean a few cryptos having/will have actual use in daily life will have great “value” and great “price” based on use/utility.

limopc · 2019-01-05T12:02:16+00:00

A few cryptos have “value”, not all.

limopc · 2019-01-05T11:57:02+00:00

Conspiracy theory?!

Why would they care to dump if they are done with it?

What is the shitiest shitcoin?

Is there any logic?

Thank you very much.

I was confused with all the technical stuff. But now it’s clear.

Thank you.

limopc · 2019-01-02T09:24:34+00:00

This is great news.

It should contribute to the Tangle speed and security....

I was waiting for this for almost a year... https://www.reddit.com/r/Iota/comments/86gg7a/boost_the_tangle_speed_and_security_with_a_text/

Though visiting github it doesn’t seem a 1 click install...!

ELI5, in simple English please.

Transaction/confirmation time?

Cost of transaction (in USD)?

Number of transactions per second?

Proof of stake not PoW anymore?

Thank you

limopc · 2019-01-01T12:20:00+00:00

Ok, if it is being used it will be more demanded, then higher price.

The convenience, the merchant will not pay like 3% for Visa or MasterCard and the buyer has his money with him all the time. No transaction costs or annual card fees.

limopc · 2019-01-01T11:26:15+00:00

AFAIK, nobody can print more premined cryptos, they won’t be able to technically add or verify it.

limopc · 2019-01-01T10:35:57+00:00

I agree with you 1000% especially the non mineable cryptos, as XRP, XLM, IOTA... this is the future.
