I agree about USB, I have been eyeing them and will probably consider buying them in April or May, assuming things stay relatively the same which they may not. If you have $100 a month to invest then buying 100 shares a month of their common stock would be easy, not to mention the dividend is very nice.

Wouldn't $100 a month only get you 10 shares? Trading at about 11.00 per share today.

Also, considering how these stocks get hammered every time Obama, Geithner, etc. open their mouths, do you expect the stock to have bottomed out now, and do you think they will continue to pay quarterly dividends of $1.70 (ish), or do you think they will be forced to cut that back?

Thanks.
