Dividend Investing

Here you have something unusual: UGI Corporation, UGI-NYSE

The company was founded in 1882 (!!) and has paid consecutive
dividends since 1885.

Years of dividend growth: 36

Dividend 6.5 %

My note: chart does not look good ...but we can wait.
This company definitely has a good chance of surviving,
judging by its history.

I like it. With all the things going on in the world plus likely higher inflation Greg Mannarino suggest that commodities are going to rise. With the war stuff going on it seems that energy related investments may also do well.

Oh, and for it's dividends of course

Some people on this thread doubted EC-EcoPetrol.

What is the truth ? The facts...in this case the chart.

Do you like this chart ? Do you like its dividend of over 20 % ?

There are stocks with big dividends. The theory that stocks with big
dividends go down. Not necessarily.

Eg Ecopetrol SA symbol EC-New York Stock Exchange has a dividend
of over 20 % and the price is stable. The company has been in business
since 1948. It is state owned (Columbia) ie it hardly can go bankrupt.

Why the big dividend ? It is state policy. These dividends are meant
to flow to people and companies to encourage the economy.

Just read the financial statements. You will like them.

I like PBR better - PBR”A” to be precise.

Here are a couple to consider:

YORW - York Water Co. Oldest investor-owned public utility in the U.S. Current 2.21% dividend is not large, but it is rock-solid. YORW has not missed a dividend payment since 1816.

MAIN - Main Street Capital Corp. Specialized financial services industry. Close to a 7% current dividend paid MONTHLY.

Full disclosure, I currently own MAIN, and have owned YORW in the past.
