REYNOLDS AMERICAN INC

It's been kind of a slow week for my investment accounts.  Got a nice dividend from Reynolds American Inc. (RAI:NYSE).  I'll be upping my stake in RAI with my next stock purchase.  They currently pay a dividend of $3.60 per share, which represents a 6.12% return on their recent share price of $58.85.  They have earnings per share of $4.16 and their P/E is 14.1.  RAI is a long term holding in my regular stock portfolio. 

Stock futures are pointing towards a lower open in the market this week, due mostly to concerns over U.S. jobs.  So I'm not looking for any big moves this week.  I just keep reminding myself that the longer the market languishes, the more time I have to accumulate bigger stakes in some great dividend stocks.
