Disappearing dividends - The hidden problem in our hot share market

The Money Puzzle, with James Kirby

The chances are that your share portfolio is going gangbusters. But a paradox of our bull market on the ASX is that the dividend payouts are sliding: Anyone starting today as a share investor is going to find it much harder to get the sort of dividend income that made our market a standout.
What's happening...and what should you do?

Don Hamson managing director of the Plato Investment group joins wealth editor James Kirby in this episode.

In today's show, we cover:

* Fading dividends - Why dividend yields are shrinking?
* Forward with franking - dividend imputation is more important than ever
* Could A-REITs be the answer ?
* The failings of ETFs which Jack Bogle may not have mentioned
