Q: Firm Capital (FC) is a dividend income stock (probably with low capital appreciation potential) that pays a a fully taxable distribution (interest income) of 7% annually (on a monthly basis).

Thanks!



Thanks.

Q: I have Cline mining CMK - 1000 shares at a cost of $4.42 and the present value is .84 cents and falling. I expect that several of the points in the reasons to sell email apply to Cline. I only get $800 from a sale but I'm thinking it is best to sell and invest in another stock that has more potential.Thank you
