I've read several articles that state that MSFT's investors want an increase in dividends. And more recently, that there is an expectation by many on Wall Street that there will be an increase in the dividend rate.

MSFT investors should be thankful, as this usually coincides with an increase in stock price, which is quite good.

However, this usually also means that the company in question beleives, and is expected by outsiders, that its money is better spent by being returned to shareholders, as opposed to projects such as R&D or capital expenditures to invest in greater future returns.

Therefore, expect what i've been saying for a few years now, that MSFT's growth should slow, evermore. Expect high single digits EPS growth, and low single digits revenue growth from here on out, which isn't horrible at all, just not absolutely fekkin awesome.


I don't know how many times you spread this nonsense before you actually understand what a dividend really is.


How did I display a misunderstanding of anything other than the fact that I dont have Balmer's dick butter smeared all over my face unlike some people?  Do you have to be a hyuuuggggee MSFT fan to post here?  I didnt think so, and my post is actually pretty moderate and reasonable in my opinion, not a trash post at all.  

If you have any valid opinions that I dont understand what a dividend is, then show me how I am in error, please. 


Let me start with: Dividend is not bribery.

The rest is up to you to read in some basic economics literature.
