That thought just caused me physical discomfort.

It does not all go, if any to the Athletic Department. However maybe it is time to take notes from the NFL and pick the 4 main entrances to Nippert and sell the naming rights to the gates. Put up a little signage and advertising, run a commercial or 2 during the game and maybe UC could get some more revenue out of the stadium during football season.

PG dividend is $2.75 per share per year. Several thousand..ok,,lets say 4000 shares..

Thats $11,000,,,,better check your math and facts...

Looking thru Endowment a few yrs ago..I see 311,896 shares and 13,600 shares..
roughly 325496 shares X 2.75= $895,114.00..

UC really needs to sell that stock. It's one of only two companies (the other is GE aviation) whose demise could actually impact the university's bottom line.

You think it can't happen? The University of Rochester had a big chunk of its endowment invested in Kodak stock in the 90s. When Kodak went under, not only did the supply of students dry up, but their endowment took a big hit too - at the exact time they really needed it.

At current market value of $86 UC has only $28 million of P&G stock but it still needs to go.

Unlike instant cameras and film (whatever that is??), shampoo, razors, floor cleaning, ass wipes, and toothpaste aren't going away anytime soon. PG
is the perfect stock for the endowment.

If those numbers are correct, $28M is only about 2.3% of the portfolio. That is not unreasonable. The current dividend yield is 3.19%, so it's safe to assume that UC's yield on the stock is better.

It's not about what they're earning. It's about risk reduction. To reduce your risk, you diversify.

It's pretty standard actually; any wealth advisor worth their salt would give the same advice. What UC is doing is the type of amateur move that happens when you give control of a $1 billion endowment to an appointed political board instead of to a professional investment team.

A professional investor board would have cut every sport but basketball in the 90s. It's a university, not a company

So... by this measure, does that make Mike Thomas a professional investor?

depends on what else is in the portfolio not to mention as someone else pointed out this is under 3% of their portfolio.

If you want to be uber nerdy, Cincinnati financial used to carry a ridiculously high percentage of fifth third stock in their investment portfolio in the old days.

Got rid of it before the crash. They also had a large position in Alltel, before it merged with At&T(new) formerly Southwestern Bell. What is not mention about P&G is that the family has given millions out of pocket, the company has given millions of in kind service and many of UC's coop have benefit from going there and being employed. This all misses the point that the Stadium is an asset that is not being fully exploited. So instead of using P&G maybe just as some donors have updated the locker room, the break room and other areas behind the scenes maybe area of the stadium could be given naming rights and advertised. That was the purpose of the post. Not a discuss of the P&G stock on the endowment...because it corporate impact goes way beyond the endowment.
