Default Re: Should I sell this position?

Personally I'd get rid of this ASAP just b/c it doesn't look like a very attractive investment @ current prices. You should still try to get gov't loans @ 4-5% to pay for grad school if you can though.

I dont know much about the company to be honest but
P/E is kind of high
growth aspects don't look great
high dividend/ payout rate also confirms they don't have a good/efficient use for the earnings...

"large" dividend isn't necessarily a good thing

This is the type of info I was looking for, I know very little about stocks and am unsure of when it would be best to sell.

So if I do sell, and manage to get the student loans what would be the best way to invest the 20k until I have to start paying the loans back?
