DG Still a Bargain
by Ian
L. Cooper
Our Dollar General (DG:NYSE) play remains
a hold. Just last week, the dollar store reported
that total sales for the four-week period ending
November 1 came in at US$475.4 million, a 13.6%
jump from the US$418.4 million posted one year
ago. For the Q3 ended November 1, DG’s total
sales increased 14.4% to US$1.5 billion as same-store
sales rose 5.2%. Same-store sales for October
alone rose 4.5%.
Wait, there’s more. This past Monday, the company’s
board of directors also declared a dividend
of US$0.032 per share, payable January 16, 2003,
to shareholders of record on January 2, 2003.
We will be watching for Dollar General’s earnings
report due November 26 after the market closes.
Continue holding DG for the long haul. We are
also continuing to hold TLK (up 32%),
NT (up 81%), AKAM (up 21%), and
CIEN (up 61%). Congratulations on all
of your current gains.
