The important thing, for me, is to continue to see a year on year improvement. Last year ASM2/3 each returned 4.75% so we need to see 5% this year. It can't really be any higher (though not entirely impossible) due the ASM1 dividend of 5% at the end of March. If there are sufficient funds in reserve, I think this would be a good time to use them (if necessary) to ensure a 5% dividend for ASM2/3 this year. The general trend is good and the short term disruption caused by Trump will steadily wash out of the equation I think, so maybe it's time for ASNB to show their support for their own product by ensuring 5% this year for ASM2/3. It would also be a pro active measure to give people cause to think twice before making large withdrawals.
If I remember correctly...
ASM1 dividend could be little higher... Around 5.2% if 100% payout ratio... I assume the 0.2% is for expenses or reserve $$$...
Trump is one really unstable person.... Keep on change policies.... I suspect he is manipulate the market for own benefits or his political funders.... Once you see he opened mouth , market dropped... Later on another post... After like certain period..., Suddenly market up.....
And finally....
ASNB might have max up their market with ASMx funds.... There's might be no more room for more take ups.... Only when existing unitsholders sold their might be new influx of $$$$.....
You just see ASM3.... They keep up opened the units like there's endless pool of units available..... I suspect there's big sell down @ mass withdrawal that cannot be taken up by new $$$$....
