Make Money Investing The Warren Buffett Way
Dividends are always great. They provide consistent income and can help improve the total return on an investment. The market is currently serving up some great dividend stocks in the healthcare industry. Each of these stocks have yields that are 4% or greater. That’s much better than the return that you will get on any savings account, certificate of deposit or treasury bond.
10 companies on their last legs
1. Blockbuster Video – Netflix and Redbox have taken market share away from this one time king. Downloadable movies will only decrease traffic in its stores.
2. Rite Aid – Still trying to return to profitability in an industry that includes heavyweights Walmart, Walgreens and CVS.
3. Borders Group - Online retailer Amazon and Barnes & Noble own the book sales industry.
4. Heely’s – Their shoes appear to be a fad item whose bubble is bursting.
5. Crocs – See Heely’s
6. Ace Hardware – Home Depot & Lowe’s have significant pricing power over Ace.
7. Build-A-Bear – Seems like the ultimate fad item.
8. Yahoo – It’s never good when an industry that you used to dominate is now known by your biggest competitor’s name.
9. Toys R Us – Business model eerily similar to KB Toys.
10. Gannett Co. - It’s not an advantage to be largest publisher in the newspaper industry when subscriptions and revenue are dropping.
