I may be the most boring. I already own MCD, JNJ, CLX, ED, KO, PG, and SYY among others. My most recent boring buy was MKC a spice company. Any company that produces Old Bay Seasoning can’t be bad but this may just be a Maryland thing. I have a dumb question. MKC even has a boring dividend (1.08/2.60%). Based on yahoo data the dividend seems to increase about 8 cents a year and .08/1.04*100 = 7% yield increase. Is that calculation correct? What kind of rate of yield increase do you look for in stock you plan to own for a long time? I’m also looking for another boring utility. I only own one, ED.
