54 Upcoming Dividend Increases, Including A King
This week features the largest list of dividend increases ever, with 50 companies, including Coca-Cola extending its 63-year streak with a 5.2% increase. My strategy focuses on companies with consistent dividend growth and outperforming benchmarks, using data from the "U.S. Dividend Champions" spreadsheet and NASDAQ. I recommend the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF for broad U.S. equity exposure and the Cohen & Steers REIT & Preferred Income Fund for REITs.

Ametek: Green Shoots Visible But No Valuation Comfort
AMETEK's recent results were not much exciting, but there are green shoots visible given improvement in order growth, which should subsequently convert into sales down the line. In the longer term, I believe AME should continue to rely on bolt-on acquisitions to derive its top and bottom line growth. AME's current valuation appears rich, trading at a premium compared to historical and sector median P/E ratios. Hence, the reason for me to stay on the sidelines.
