Someone on SA linked to an article about the original DJIA members and where they are today. The article was from the publication 'Financial History', a quarterly magazine sent to members. Over the weekend I was digging through the site. The archive features an article from each issue that's downloadable in pdf format. Some are boring (to me) and some have some interesting nuggets.

We've talked about Canadian banks here and some of us hold them. For those with an interest, there's an article about these banks from the Spring 2013 issue:

“While the dividend itself is merely a rearrangement of equity, over time it's more like owning an apple tree. The tree grows the apples back again and again and again, and the theoretical value of the tree doesn't change just because of when the apples are about to fall.” - earthtodan

Interesting read. Thanks for sharing.

Hope the banks will be able to withstand if the real estate crashes here in Canada. It is disturbing to see pathetic little shacks selling for $1M in Toronto and Vancouver. There's talk that the housing crash has already started in Alberta - with decline in the oil market.
