Ideally you can get both. The fastest growth is in the smallest companies but they dont usually pay dividends due to limited cashflow which also makes them risky. You can get high dividend and reasonable growth where a company is turning round, high volatility in their earnings may mean the share price drops but they can continue to pay out a dividend anyway as the worst fears are not realised.
In 2008 and after many companies were valued for their cash balance only, like standard life has 3bn cash and is very liquid and able to pay a dividend, at one point their total market cap was also 3bn making them very good value.
Their dividend has only increased since then, the company itself has had flat growth but at the right price any share can represent some growth as it rebounds. This is quite low risk compared to aim.
Fresnillo went from 99p to 1200 yet they are the worlds largest silver mine. Their earnings potential varied greatly. In a big company these gains are unusual to be seen only once in a lifetime usually, at 99p they were a good dividend stock
Hank paulson said one hundred year storms seem to be appearing every six years now hence this could all happen again I figure
You should do both, allocate some monies in seperate accounts to each idea and see how you go
RRL is at the trend I posted up a few weeks ago. It bounced off this a couple times today lightly.
Volume was light today compared to the average I think ? Soros says volume and volatility spike at turning points
Trends only represent probability based on previous price history but this is my target to increase the holding a lot so I will do so tommorow
Without any news its all speculation unfortunately
