Well here it is 3 months later, aren't you glad you hung onto WAG?
Nice 14.5% dividend increase and a long term shot at owning the world's drug store.
You could sell it and buy a 4.5% yield utility but WAG has a lot more going for it than that.
Think about it..... you could sell WAG and buy SO, and what do you get? 2% more yield, $100 a year more income on a $5k investment.
Now if you're retired I can see making that trade because income is the focus, if you're not retired or dependent on the income, I just can't see it.
I own a significant position in WAG so I'm not just talking out of my hat either. I really like this company and where they're headed. There will be some stumbles along the way just like any company would have implementing new business plans, mergers, etc but think this is one you really want to stick with.
