When I see office reads at the moment, I find it quite hard. It's not a space that I'm 100% comfortable in. 9 out of 10 times, I would say the company is broken when they cut the dividend. Jay asks us if a company has caught the dividend historically but has started to grow the dividend after the cut, would you still consider buying them? And the academic answer is it depends.
In this episode, we discuss dividend hikes and cuts from Johnson & Johnson ($JNJ), Costco ($COST), Sonoco ($SON) and Blackstone ($BX)
We also discuss the recent earnings results from
1. Johnson & Johnson
2. ASML
