Good evening, Investors know that historically, stocks beat bonds, and bonds beat cash. Plus, when you have a long time horizon, few things offer the return that equities provide. But that knowledge takes a back seat to our primal instinct for safety when the markets turn negative. At times like these we hear cries of “cash is king.” For some investors that may absolutely be true. But for a moment, consider another potential way to look at the cash is king statement. That is, if cash is good for you as an individual, it’s also good for the company’s you consider investing in. In fact, if you’re a buy-and-hold investor, finding cash rich companies should be of primary importance. Specifically, investors should look for companies that have a strong balance sheet that includes access to a lot of cash. Not only does this mean that these companies can manage their debt, but it also means that they can use that cash to add shareholder value either through stock buybacks or, preferably for income investors, a healthy and growing dividend. We can help with you with that. In this special presentation, we give you seven stocks of cash rich companies. By this we mean that they are generating high levels of free cash flow and pay a dividend. In fact, one of these stocks is a dividend king that has increased its dividend for 60 consecutive years. And several of these stocks are currently trading at an attractive valuation. The goal of every investor should be to build wealth slowly. If you’re an investor with some time on your side, staying in the market through its ups and downs is historically the correct strategy. Here are seven stocks that offer you a measure of safety in these markets. View the 7 Cash Rich Stocks That Offer Safety in Any Market Matthew Paulson MarketBeat |
