Times like these I regret not buying (last week when the stock was $100)

Awesome raise, and a huge stock buyback on top of it.

I recently looked at this stock in a SA article looking at deals in the market. I may have to do some deeper research.

Holy crapola, Batman. Still one of my top picks for when the next recession hits and I can get the yield up there. I agree, the sub $100 sale last week would've been a nice entry point. Now if only BDX did the same.

From the press release:
Quote:Parker has increased its annual dividends paid to shareholders for 58 consecutive fiscal years, among the top five longest-running dividend-increase records in the S&P 500 index.

Holy geez.

Quote:In a leveraged recap, KLA-Tencor (NASDAQ:KLAC) plans to pay a $16.50/share special dividend (total value of $2.75B) by year's end. The company has also added $250M to its buyback, on top of the $1B authorization announced in July.

Another uninspiring raise from AFL, but I'll take it!

With a stagnating growth and only 25% payout ratio, surley they'll have to reward investors soon......right? Aha!

I've been hoping for AFL to be less stingy with the dividend raises for a long time now, so not holding my breath!
