One to remove already. Was the highest yield on the list. Be careful out there. ng UDR (UDR) Cuts Qtr. Dividend to $0.18, to Save $79M Over Next Year May 26, 2009 8:06 AM EDT UDR, Inc. (NYSE: UDR) today announced that its Board has approved a 40.9% reduction in its quarterly dividend from $0.305 to $0.18 per common share, payable in cash, on July 31, 2009 to UDR common stock shareholders of record as of July 10, 2009. “Given our desire to further strengthen UDR’s balance sheet, the Board of Directors has decided to establish a dividend rate that increases retained capital by approximately $79 million over the next 12 months. This action, combined with the existing $1.2 billion of cash and credit capacity allows the Company to effectively navigate the challenging economy and be better positioned to take advantage of opportunities as they emerge,” commented Tom Toomey, UDR’s President and Chief Executive Officer.

Thanks for the updated list. In reviewing stocks there and spotting MSEX and looking closer at it, it looks okay to to me for a buy for me. In for a few shares now. si.advfn.com^MSEX

FDO. Fwiw, I am adding to my position in Dividend Aristocrat, Family Dollar Stores as the stock drops. I like it because it has a relatively low p/e (12-14) and relatively high roe (currently about 20%), with relatively low d/e of .2. Profitable every year for the past ten (as far back as my records show), FDO should be a retailer that could do okay in an overall bleak environment for the retail sector. Yield is only 1.9% though. si.advfn.com^FDO
