Discounting dividend discount models
Article Abstract:
Dividend discount models are a way of relating share prices to dividends and discount levels. There are a number of different types of models and a common type permits a variation in future dividend growth. Some shares may initially have high dividend levels which then stabilise. Simpler versions of the model assume stable dividend growth. Many of these models indicate that UK share prices are expensive in Jun 1996. Dividends could still increase by more than national income since profits are a lower proportion of gross domestic product that they were in the 1950s.

Examining the warrant
Article Abstract:
Warrants offer investors the ability to gear. They permit investors to purchase stocks at a set price by a set date, allowing control of shares with a much higher value than the sum invested. Investors should consider the stock price, the exercise price, and the amount of time left before the warrant expires. They should select markets that they perceive as likely to see rising prices. Investors should be wary of this investment vehicle and only commit sums that they are able to do without, due to the risks involved.
