The stock market is up over 200% from the lows printed in March of 2009. Anybody with a fair amount of market knowledge knows that the double-digit gains of the past five and a half years can’t last forever. In a new report, the equity team at Jefferies are among those that think that next year, while still an up year, will only see a 5% increase. That may come as a shock for those accustomed to big yearly gains.
The Jefferies report highlights stocks that are considered quality companies based on metrics like sustainable growth rates and superior dividend yields. We screened the list for the top-yielding companies: Chevron Corp. (NYSE: CVX), Emerson Electric Co. (NYSE: EMR) and Lorillard Inc. (NYSE: LO).
