Bottom fishing can
sometimes be a big mistake for novice investors. In the past I found it easy to
convince myself that buying a stock at the 52 week low is not a risky
proposition because of that stock's low price relative to past earnings,
dividend yield, or some other metric of value.
But in reality, buying a down trending stock is always risky, as you are betting against the market itself which does not mean that it is bad. Swimming or acting against the storm or crowd could be profitable.

Today, I like to
show you those stocks from the Dividend Champions list that is trading around
its one year lows. It's only informational but there are also some good names
on it. Which do you like?
These are the results...
