Warren Buffett Buys An Auto Dealer - Here Are 5 Top Dividend Paying Alternatives

Yesterday, news jumped into the market: The oracle of Omaha, Warren Buffett the mastermind behind the investment holding Berkshire Hathaway, bought an auto dealer. What - Auto and Dealer?

Yes, Buffett acquired an auto dealer. He still owns shares of car manufacturer General Motors and adds a fully business from the distribution site. The company named Van Tuyl Group and generated sales of just under USD 8 billion.

Van Tuyl Group says it is the biggest privately owned auto dealership group in the U.S. It has 78 independently operated dealerships and more than 100 franchises in 10 states. The company will be renamed Berkshire Hathaway Automotive and be based in Dallas.

The deal comes amid ongoing consolidation in the industry. Publicly traded giants, including Florida-based AutoNation and Oregon-based Lithia Motors have been snapping up smaller retail chains, often run by families who have been selling cars for generations.

It also could be possible that Buffett buys the Van Tuyl Group in order to create a new channel to sell auto insurance policies.

I've also had some of my eyes on auto parts and car dealers in the past. The main problem was for me that they have no good diversification abroad. Most companies generate revenues in the United States but they have shown strong growth.

Below are five dividend paying alternatives from the auto dealership industry. Most of the industry members pay no dividends but for nearly all, double-digit earnings growth is predicted. If you like to follow my stories, please subscribe my blog news.

18 Services Stocks With Low Debt And Payout Ratios To Boost Future Dividends

Services dividend paying stocks with low payout ratios and relatively small debt figures originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Today I would like to continue my article serial about low leveraged stocks with small payout ratios. I believe that those stocks can pay higher dividends in the future or they have the ability to grow further without capital increases.

The services sector ha s many corporate stocks with small dividend payouts but the most of the stocks are working with small profit margins or they have a modest capitalization. I decided to look only at stocks with more than $2 billion market capitalization in order to get the best results. My other criteria are still the same: Debt to equity under 0.5 with a dividend payout ratio of less than 20 percent.

Eighteen stocks fulfilled the above mentioned criteria of which ten are currently recommended to buy.

15 Growing Dividend Stocks That Buffett/Munger Would Choose

Dividend stocks from the Buffett/Munger screener originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger are the two investment heads of Berkshire Hathaway. If they decide to put money into a business, they usually have a good nose for their investment which will be paid-off.

With a long-term annual return wide above 20 percent, they definitely have done the most things right. 

Today I would like to present you the best dividend stocks from the gurufocus Buffett/Munger screener. The tool searches the market by good companies at fair or even undervalued prices. The screener take only stocks with a high predicable business into account. 

These are some of the criteria:

- Rising Margin

- Growing Business

- Little Debt

- Fair or Undervalued

The Buffett/Munger screener gives you over 200 results but I like to focus on the U.S. stock market. 

From 77 American stocks are only 15 shares that pay dividends. Buffett and Munger will definitely love some of these results. 

The good thing is that the screener don’t show results of stocks in which they are already invested. For a closer overview about the latest stock purchases from Warren Buffett and his latest portfolio, please look here: Warren Buffet’s Latest Stock Picks And His Biggest Portfolio Holdings.
