Warren Buffett Buys Surprisingly These 8 Dividend Stocks (WMT, GM, IBM, VZ ...)

Warren Buffett is one of the most trusted investors in the world. Recently, he came out with his 13F Filling which informs about the recent investment activity.

I studied Warren's latest buys and sells. My thoughts are clear: He invest into calbe and telecom stocks. Below is a small overview of his latest purchases. In addition, I've implemented a detailed view on his latest dividend buys for you.

In total, Warren bought 13 stocks of which eight pay dividends. The highest yielding company was the telcom company Verizon followed by the car maker General Motors.

His total portfolio value hit the USD 107 billion benchmark and around 65 percent of his assets are invested into four companies (Wells Fargo, Coca Cola, American Express and IBM as well).

45 percent of his assets have a relationship to the financial sector. Insurance stocks have made him rich in the past but I think those shares were only a strong cash source for further investments. 

Buffett is a great investors with a fantastic sense for good investments but everybody should develop his own investment style.

4 Hot Dividend Growing Incurance Stocks You Must Know (ACE, AFL, TRV, UNH)

During the past week I've visited my girlfriend and came back home with some ideas about investing. 

Earlier this year, I've noticed that insurance stocks are great cash flow producer and some of them have a really low dividend payout ratio. They invest a huge amount of money to buy back own shares and they are really cheap valuated.

Warren Buffet likes insurer but he prefers today stocks from the cable business. I also see that those companies have a very attractive Price-to-Ebitda ratio.

However, I bought two German insurers last Friday. They yield over 3 percent and I like to increase my positions over the next time if they become cheaper.

The American stock market also has great insurer to look at. Aflac and Travelers are my two favorites followed by Chubb Corp. Those are also long-term dividend grower and part of David Fish's CCC List.

Below I've highlighted a few large cap insurer from the accident & health insurance industry as well as stocks from the property & casualty insurance industry. In addition, I've added large caps from the health care plans industry. From there came only one stock, the United Health Group.

All of the selected stocks have raised dividends by more than five consecutive years. Just dare a glace at my thoughts. I know that those stocks are not very popular but they are very attractive in terms of price for cash.

Are These 8 Great Dividend Grower Underestimated By The Market?

I like it when stocks fall because they become cheaper. That's the reason why I always look at companies with a really bad stock performance.

I personally don't care about analysts and lead investors who are sometimes anxious about the future of the company. In other cases, they need to justify their portfolio risk.

I love it to see bad performing dividend stocks with a very long history of solid growing dividends, especially when the future outlook is still bright.

Below I've highlighted some of the worst performing and most disliked dividend growth stocks on the market with a negative 1-Year performance. They all got low forward P/E and yields over 3 percent.

What do you think, are they underestimated by the market?
