Not just Dividend
@ Pascal Monett - I think that just about sums up what is wrong with the Stock Market. It's not just dividends though.
The barrow boys at the Stock Exchange treat shares as simple commodities to be bought and then sold at a profit. Now we have computer trading where an advantage for trading is based on milliseconds.
Unfortunately now that most peoples' pension funds rely on the Stock Market we are stuck with it.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
