Every Sunday, I uncover a high-quality dividend growth stock that appears to be undervalued. These pieces are published at Daily Trade Alert, which is a site that focuses on dividend growth investing, stocks, and unique investment opportunities. I’ve been writing for them for years now, and they’re just great over there. Each week, I publish an excerpt of my work here, when it’s fresh off the press. That way, you readers are given the chance to check it out. The content is totally free. I hope you enjoy!
Just imagine opening your own business.
Let’s say it’s a burger joint.
You go to 100 investors for capital, and you issue equity in your new business to these investors in exchange for their capital.
All fine and dandy… except these investors are greedy investors.
See, they want dividends. They want a regular and recurring check from you, which is a portion of the profit the business (their business) produces.
Not only that, but these greedy investors want those dividend payments to reliably increase, year after year.

Great write up Jason. I recently looked into OMC, and liked what I saw, so I grabbed some shares. Good starting dividend, and good valuation which is rather hard to find in this market. Also is in an industry where I had little to no exposure. Wouldn’t want to make it a backbone of my portfolio, but I like it to diversify my income stream.
presone,
Glad to be a fellow shareholder. 🙂
I also don’t see it (or have it) as a major position, but I like the business quite a bit. They held up admirably during the financial crisis. That speaks volumes.
Cheers!
