Get a loan, buy GE shares, and pay interests with the dividends?

  1. Wait until the Dow is at 12,000 then sell?
    (Even if it takes 7 or 10 years)

    Meanwhile the dividends pay out the interests (the loan must be fixed rate, for safety)
     
  2. Might work if GE doesn't cut its dividend, and there is a lot of talk that they will have too. Seems too high risk for me.

    PS. I like GE and have been buying it all the way down, much to my dismay
     
  3. How much they might cut the dividend?

    A 25% cut is still OK to me.
     
  4. 100% Cut is my prediction.

    But I think a cut is the right thing to do in this environment. Better use of cash.
     
  5. Just cut it by 66%, good thing you didn't do that.

    100% div cut and stock at zero would hurt your plan.
