U.S. Dividend Watch List: March 29, 2013
Below are the 16 companies on our U.S. Dividend Watch List that are within 11% of their respective 52-week lows. Stocks that appear on our watch lists are not recommendations to buy. Instead, they are the starting point for doing your research and determining the best company to buy. Ideally, a stock that is purchased from this list is done after a considerable decline in the price and rigorous due diligence.
Analyst Estimate: Dividend Watch List
Below is a ranking from our October 26, 2012 watch list based on the analyst’s low earnings estimate for 2013. This list ranks the potential price gain at 10% and above assuming that the analyst’s lowest estimate for earnings materialize and the P/E ratio remains the same as when our original watch list was created.
We chose to utilize the analyst’s low estimates because the mean and high estimates for stocks tend to be too optimistic. By going with the lowest or most pessimistic estimate, we have the ability to “play it safe” for the company prospects going forward.

The refinement of our October 26, 2012 watch list should improve the usefulness of that list as a way of determining which companies to concentrate your investment dollars. The very last column is where we believe additional adjustments could be made. As an example, the very first stock on our list is ABM with an expected gain of +36.06% in the coming year (assuming the P/E ratio remains the same with the estimated 2013 earnings). We like to assume that we’d only achieve half of what the potential might be. In the case of ABM, our adjusted expectation is that the stock could gain as much as +18.08% (all thing being equal).
