Explanation / Answer

total return on this investment = (selling price - purchasing price + Dividend)/ purchasing price

here, dividend = 101,124* 0.019 = $1921.36

so,total return on this investment =[(26.60*3600 - 101,124) + 101,124* 0.019] / 101,124

= - .034

so - 3.4 %

yes,this is a negative growth stock.
