Compelling 8.2% Yield, Consumer Staples Stock

You might think a stock yielding over 8% is a red flag (perhaps a company in distress), but the one we review in this report is surprisingly compelling if you are an income-focused investor. The industry is in a slow secular decline, but revenues and the dividend are set to keep growing steadily and the shares offer some margin of safety relative to the current valuation. In this report, we review the business, consider the cash flows (including dividends and share repurchases), the valuation and the risks. We conclude with our opinion on investing.

Frothy Market Fear? Depending on Your Goals, Try This 8.1% Dividend Yield Blue Chip

If you are afraid the market is due for a significant pullback in the near-term, you might be considering moving to cash. However, and depending on your goals, you might instead want to consider the attractive 8.1% dividend yield blue chip stock described in this article. Specifically, no one knows when the next pullback is coming, but the stock described in this report has a very healthy dividend (with over 50 years of dividend increases), and the shares have significantly less volatility risk than the rest of the market (as per its 0.6, 3-year beta). Furthermore, we like the company’s aggressive share repurchase program. In this report, we review the business, valuation, dividend safety and risks, and then conclude with our opinion on who should invest.
