- I have always believed in reinvesting dividends. However, if one buys
- an even lot of 100 shares of a stock and then reivests dividends
- producing something like 116.035, do those extra 16.035 shares make it
- a pain or expensive to sell? Would it be better to just take the
- dividends as cash?
