Donald Yacktman (Trades, Portfolio) has dedicated his two mutual funds, the Yacktman Fund (Trades, Portfolio) and the Yacktman Focused Fund (Trades, Portfolio), to stocks of high-quality companies with attractive valuations and solid prospects despite market conditions. Achieving strong returns while guarding against risk are also primary investing objectives at his funds.
Yacktman and his managers generally do not highly prioritize dividends, telling CNBC in 2012 that share buybacks and tender offers are a better way for companies to return money to shareholders. But a sizable number of his funds’ 50 high-quality stock positions have strong yields. The largest dividend paying stocks in Yacktman’s portfolio are: Philip Morris International Inc. (PM), ConocoPhillips (COP), Altria Group Inc. (MO), Avon Products Inc. (AVP) and Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM).
