For Investors Only -- Some Financial News Links

HAL: 100% upside potential, SeekingAlpha.com
V = E0 + E1 /(1+r) + E2 /(1+r)2 + E3/(1+r)3 + E4/(1+r)4 + E5/(1+r)5 + Disposal Value
V = E0 + E0 (1+g)/(1+r) + E0(1+g)2/(1+r)2 + … + E0(1+g)5/(1+r)5 + E0(1+g)5/[r(1+r)5]
The earnings after the last period act as a perpetuity that creates regular earnings:
Disposal Value = D = E0(1+g)5/[r(1+r)5] = E5 / r
Einstein's famous equation: E=mc2

COP: should you buy before or after the split? -- SeekingAlpha.com
Once COP splits into two companies you have the original $2.64 (perhaps more) dividend plus a competitive $0.40 (per COP share) to boot. Unlike the Abbott Laboratories split in which the dividends of the two companies combined will equal the current payout, COP creates two competitive dividend yields.
