I am not a stock trader; I am a dividend and value based long-term buy-and-hold investor. When I add a stock to my dividend portfolio, it is my intention to hold the stock forever. I am not smart enough to time the daily gyrations of the stock market. However, I have one hard and fast rule about selling stocks: When an individual stock held as a dividend investment lowers its dividend, immediately sell it.
Here are several stocks that are trying to stay in good favor with their shareholders by raising their cash dividends:
After running these companies through my D4L-PreScreen.xls model, RLI with a NPV of MMA Differential of $3,404 and 33 consecutive year record of raising dividends certainly qualifies for a more complete evaluation. DHT has only paid a dividend since 2006. NST had positive NPV of MMA Differentials, but below the level that would warrant a more detailed evaluation. SYY was reviewed on Wednesday.
Disclosure: Long SYY.
