DeHaemer's 5 Picks for 2002

by Christian DeHaemer

Buy Haliburton (HAL:NYSE) below US$11.50. Sell at US$40. Collect 4.07% dividend yield.

Haliburton is getting crushed by an asbestos lawsuit settlement. Remember when Phillip Morris was at 10 bucks due to a concentrated attack against smoking? It’s now at US$46. Remember when Microsoft was at US$40 due to lawsuits? It’s now at US$68. (Does anyone miss the Clinton White House?)

Buy Abitibi Consolidated (ABY:NYSE) below US$7.50, sell above US$12, and get a 3.5% yield while you are waiting for paper prices to rebound.

Buy The Boston Celtics Limited Partnership (BOS:NYSE) below US$11. Sell above US$20 when they make the playoffs. Paul Pierce, Kenny Anderson, and Antoine Walker—need I say more? These guys have been on the bottom since Kevin McHale left. There is only one way to go from here.

Buy Eastman Kodak (EK:NYSE). This is the Big Dog of the Dow. According to the dogs of the Dow theory—which has returned 17.7% average annual gains since 1973—you buy the ten Dow component stocks that pay the largest dividend yield. If you take away the five that have the highest price, you get the Dow puppy theory, which has returned 20.9% since 1973. The big winner in this case is EK, which yields 6.12% at US$29.43 a share.

The other four are: • International Paper (IP:NYSE), yields 2.48% at US$40.35.

• SBC Communications (SBC:NYSE), yields 2.60% at US$40.17.

• ExxonMobile (XOM:NYSE), yields 2.43% at US$39.30.

• JP Morgan Chase (JPM:NYSE), yields 3.74% at US$36.35.
