Four stocks
from the dividend growers list have a forward P/E of less than 10 and eleven
have a dividend yield over 5 percent. Below are my five favorites. You might
agree or not.
Most of
them are different and they don’t look like real Dividend Aristocrats or
Dividend Champions as in the past articles.
My focus
for this selection was mainly on Large Cap. I personally have no shares of them
and don’t like to buy some in the near future but it’s always good to know what
companies have hiked dividends because in five years or so, they could become
to a new Dividend Challenger.
Big names
on the Buyback side were Pfizer, AbbVie, Canadian National Railway,
Parker-Hannfin, Nielsen and CarMax.
