Dogs
of the Dow Round 2
By
Ian L. Cooper
Earlier
this year, Christian DeHaemer put out a list of six
Dogs of the Dow stocks that returned an average 10
percent in less than three months. The idea is straightforward.
You buy the Dow stocks with the highest dividend
yields and watch them outperform the rest of the
market. Dogs of the Dow stocks are a good buy for
a few reasons. One, Dow stocks most likely will not
go out of business. Two, the Dogs pay a dividend.
And, three, we’re buying these stocks at low prices.
The stocks we like this time around are Philip Morris (MO:NYSE),
paying out a six percent dividend, J.P. Morgan Chase (JPM:NYSE),
paying out close to six percent in dividends, Eastman Kodak (EK:NYSE),
paying out a 5.1 percent dividend, SBC Communications (SBC:NYSE),
paying out four percent, and Honeywell (HON:NYSE), which pays
a nice yield of 3.1 percent. These are all speculative buys that we will look
to take profits from later this year. For now, if you should decide to buy
in, plan to hold for the long haul.
It helps that many are optimistic that 2003 will be a good year to be an investor,
especially since Bush is expected to make dividend taxation a key part of our
economic stimulus package, which would bring more investors into the pool to
buy more high dividend yield stocks.
