If they were yielding 9% on a par of $50, then they pay $4.50 annually per share in dividends. $4.50/$60 is a return of 7.5%.

Find a local dealer and ask him how he determines the worth. At the very least, ask him for grading help, and then you can use an online resource from that point once they've been properyl graded. Don't ask him what he'll give you, as he'll shave 30-40% off for his margin.\n\nHoep this helps!\n--J.

Say you own a share of stock valued at $100.  If the stock splits 2 for one then you now own 2 shares valued at $50 each.\n\nIf a $100 share of stock pays a dividend of 50 cents then for each share you have the company pays you 50 cents.

Go to the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE).  Here's a link for you to review...good luck.

I would suggest getting an up to date valuation from the company which initially valued the property at 50 to 60 k more. If the valuations are miles apart suggest that you would like to take the valuations to arbitration or contact the valuers institute and ask them for advice.

Not sure I understand the question.  If you want to change your shares owned, then buy more or sell some depending on the current price.

False.\n\nGOOG has an estimated book value of $31.87-to-$34.71 per share, based on approximately 300 million shares outstanding, depending upon whose numbers you look at.\n\nhttp://finance.yahoo.com/q/ks?s=GOOG\nhttp://finance.google.com/finance?q=goog\nhttp://money.excite.com/ht/rs/fin/st/g/goog.html\nhttp://www.marketwatch.com/tools/quotes/profile.asp?siteid=bigcharts&dist=bigcharts&symb=GOOG&sid=1795093&time=7

waterhouse should be about $20.00 for that trade in the US. looks like you are talking about a Canadian account (rip-off).\n\nlook into interactivebrokers.com and see if they can handle that kind of account.

Coach has maxed itself out @ almost $40.00 per share and will never offer you much of a return unless it plummets back down to it's foundation price.  \n\nIt is too high and was only a productive purchase to those smart enough to get in on the ground floor.  \n\nIt is rated at an 8,  a great stock to own but as far as it going up enough to make you money...  I don't see it happening.  It wont ever become an Abercrombie or an american eagle.  I don't think so anyway...  always go with your gut!  I would hate to be the deciding factor and you not do something you should have done. \n\nCheck out Psun...  It just split and is still cheap!

It simply means your share amount will be cut.\nExample:\nIF they do a 5 to 1 split your 10,000 shares will be divided by 5.  You will be left with 2000 shares. \n\nThis split will raise the price of the stock dramatically but since your shares were cut in the first place you basically stay right where you are in terms of money.\n\nI had this happen, I left everything alone and all turned out fine.\n\nThe reverse split is opposite the regular split.  You probably know that the when stocks split they go way down in price...  This is a huge indication to buy while that price is LOW.  Yet many do not understand and they get scared of the price dropping and sell out.  To which they lose almost all their money!  DUMB idea but some people really shouldn't be investing if they cannot control their fear.\n\nThanks for asking such a good question !!  I tried to put the answer in the simplest form.\n\nHappy Black Friday ! \n\n : )

Phone the company/bank/building society you invested with and they should be able to help you.\n\nAlternatively, if you are invested in funds and know the unit holding, you could look up the price of the fund on the company website or in the FT.

If this is a corporation stock, it will indicate which state that it is in. In most cases, you can contact your state's Secretary of State's office to learn if that company is still in business, and what has happened to that company over the years.   \n\nIt might take a bit of work to find any value.  Even if it went BUST a long time ago, the story will go well as a family heirloom.   Write the story and keep it with the stock certificates.

40% is good especially for having done it yourself. If I were you, I'd close all the accounts and take this deal. It sounds really good if it's at a level you can afford.

You're correct.  Presumably you received a 1099-DIV with $8000 (or whatever) in the cap gains distribution.  You would need to include that amount in your return.  When you sell the shares, that amount will be included in your basis so your eventual gain will be total sales price-$108,000.

I don't think whether you still work for them or not is an issue. Whether the company is publicly-traded or not might be an issue. How long the options are good for is definitely an issue. \n\nIf you think the options are worth 50 times their price, and you can cash them in, then I'd do so.

They last posted a dividend and cap gains distribution on Dec 2, 2005.  It has been 6 months and I think they had another distribution, which lowers the sales price.\n\nEDIT:\nI confirmed on their website that distributions of dividends and capital gains do occur in May and Dec.  If you have your distributions reinvested then it should be a wash for you.  If you have your distributions paid out, then you have the same number of shares at the lower price.
