What? How can a stock with a long stable dividend history currently yielding over 5% underperform? It will because there will be no stock price appreciation. And 5% isn't good enough to beat S&P500 going forward.On a risk adjusted basis, this one will have better return. But CAPS is not about risk adjusted return. If the stock underperforms S&P500 on total return basis, an underpeform call earns points. And I think over next 5-10 years, S&P500 will outperform this stock hands down, no question!
