These 8 Dividend Growth Crown Jewels Look Like Big Bargains

I will not surprise anybody when I write that market volatility is good for buyers. The overall stock market is going sideways since August, and this has been creating many buying opportunities.

However, it doesn't mean that all companies are trading at interesting prices. There is a big difference between investing in an undervalued stock, a pure victim of the massive downtrend and catching a falling knife that shows real difficulties. The best method to separate the good from the bad is to use the concept of a margin of safety.

Attached you can find a few stocks that might offer a big margin of safty for investors now. Please leave some comments if you agree or disagree with me. Thank you.

Here are the results...
