HI ditch,

I'll second that emotion.

There is a lot of money chasing dividend aristocrats.

They not only are chasing them they are bidding them up.

I'm of the mind that the lower tier stocks that have a consistent track record of continuous dividend payments (albeit not increasing the dividend) can offer a better value.

When you pay 15% to 20 % more for a stock to get 1% more in yield,market actions to price can be a loser for much more than 1 % strived for.

I have to give E_K_S his due as I have just taken positions in my accounts in Armanina Foods of distinction - AMNF.

With an 8 cent dividend that yields 3.69 % and the price is steady as a rock - its a nice comforting stock to own as I only wish it would show be a 4% dividend yield.

Ditto TIS as I hope to add to it also.

I have two horses I constantly ride that yield in the 4% -6% depending on how well you buy on the dip with BRKS and CY.

These are great balance sheet companies esp BRKS riding under the radar of most investors.

I'll sleep better at night taking a little less yield and solid price action vs high yield high volatility - even a great dividend growth stock like HCP has spooked me out with the resignation of the CFO in March and now the CEO this last month. Too much drama for me - I'm a scardy cat investor.

I even took a wild flier on CMTL for what appears to be too much dividend - so that the wild side in me.
