You are right that most brokers require you to receive enough of a dividend to cover the cost of at least one share of stock to reinvest. However, some brokerages such as Canadian Shareowners Association or Sharebuilder allow you to reinvest into fractional shares. Luke - I think a fund like DVY or VIG are good for people who don't have time to research and track individual securities. Jim - I use Canadian Shareowners Association - it is similar to NAIC or Sharebuilder, but only accepts applications from Canadians. White Eagle – it depends on the broker.

Currently, I have a Scottrade account and as pleased as I am with them, for some odd reason, they do not have the option to reinvest dividends. It seems that many prefer to use Sharebuilder, but I really don't like the lack of flexibility. Looking forward to your thoughts!

Guy- I am curious about your thoughts on say an ETF fund like DVY or VIG that track a decent amount of the companies you hold under one umbrella and if that is something you recommend... I am looking to pick up the pace with dividend related funds in my account and the Vanguard ETF VIG seems pretty solid with a decent weighting of top companies... Thoughts? Also, depending on the brokerage firm, dividends can be reinvested even if they are partial shares. Sharebuilder and a few others allow partial purchases of shares and allow automatic partial dividend reinvestments...Pretty cool... Div. Guy-

I was under the impression that in order for dividends to be reinvested, there had to be a sufficient distribution amount to cover the cost of one full share. From your transactions, it looks as though I was misinformed or perhaps each broker does it differently. Hi Dividend Guy,
