Alaska oil dividend in doubt as fund hits uncertain year
Alaska may not mail dividend checks next year as the Permanent Fund nears its cannot be touched principal of about 22 billion dollars. Lower returns from Wall Street threaten the annual distribution of around 900 million dollars to roughly 600000 residents. The fund, created in 1976 from Prudhoe Bay oil royalties, is invested about half in stocks and helps rural families with housing heating and basic needs in remote areas.
