“I know they don’t have earnings growth, but I am not buying them for growth but for their very high, abnormal dividend,” said Jacob De Tusch-Lec, a London-based fund manager at Artemis, which oversees $16 billion. “If I can see KPN paying 3 percent on their bond and giving me a dividend yield of 6 percent, why would I buy the bond?”
