Here's "Simply Wall St" take on how DOW is looking in the future:
"f you're not sure where to start when looking for the next multi-bagger, there are a few key trends you should keep an eye out for. Firstly, we'd want to identify a growing return on capital employed (ROCE) and then alongside that, an ever-increasing base of capital employed. Basically this means that a company has profitable initiatives that it can continue to reinvest in, which is a trait of a compounding machine. So on that note, Dow (NYSE:DOW) looks quite promising in regards to its trends of return on capital."

Yo!
Much of the spin offs, I think, will depend on number of shares issued, initial valuation, and multiplals applied, I think. Revs should be good, if not better.. We need an initial valuation of $50-$60 for Dow & DD, at least... Breen should have a list of spinoffs set, as should Fitterling. Looking for Breen to appreciate stock values 300%, which is low, for his past history... I like the Dow dividends going forward. We shall see.. I’m still buying.
