I wouldn’t buy any old dividend payer right now, with most stock prices on the high side. But, believe it or not, there are a few quality dividend growers that are still pretty cheap. This time last year, we discussed four fast dividend growers selling below book value. It’s almost hard to believe now that the four-pack of banks we highlighted then were selling for as cheap as 70 cents on the dollar. But that’s how you make money with stocks – by buying good names when nobody else wants them. And since my column last April, this group gained an average of 53%. 5 Dividend Growers at “Free Lunch” Prices Today...
Metlife Inc (NYSE:MET) is the cheapest big name on the board, trading for us 85% of book. Meanwhile reinsurer Everest Re Group Ltd (NYSE:RE) has rallied above its liquidation value, but it still trades for just seven times free cash flow (FCF). Prudential Financial Inc (NYSE:PRU) has been a dedicated regular on my “too cheap” list. Last May I said it had 25% upside, and that proved conservative – the stock has rallied 34% in just 11 months! We’ll close with a small bargain name boasting big dividend growth –Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corp. (NYSE:AGM) aka “Farmer Mac.”
