BAC dividend for 2013 Poll

[racemize]

What do you think the quarterly dividend will be for BAC after 2013 stress tests?

just for convenience, every 0.01 paid out is 100 million dollars from BAC.  So an increase of 0.01 per quarter is 400 million annually (obviously).

I don't know what is more likely, but I know what I would like: No dividend increase and big buybacks. That way, the market might react badly to the dividend, allowing buybacks at lower prices :)

Given the probable tax events for adjustments on the A warrants and the fact that I have some B warrants as well, I agree wholeheartedly!  The fed will also want to keep the dividends from going up too fast this year, since they can take away the buybacks as wanted, but I imagine there will be a token increase.
