Stocks Going Ex Dividend in November 2022

The following is a short list of some of the many stocks going ex dividend during the next month.

Many traders and investors use the stock trading technique called ‘Buying Dividends,’ also commonly referred to as ‘Dividend Capture.’ This is the strategy of buying stocks before the ex dividend date and selling the stock shortly after the ex date at about the same price, yet still being entitled to the dividend.

This technique generally works in bull markets and flat or choppy markets, but during bear markets, you may want to consider avoiding this strategy. In order to be entitled to the dividend, you have to buy the stock before the ex-dividend date, and you can’t sell the stock until on or after the ex date.

The actual dividend may not be paid for another few weeks. WallStreetNewsNetwork.com has compiled a downloadable list of the stocks going ex dividend in the near future. The list contains many dividend paying companies, lots with market caps over $500 million. Some of the stocks have yields over 2%. Here are a few examples showing the stock symbol, the ex-dividend date, the periodic dividend amount, and the annual yield.

Labor Day Stocks: Made in the USA Companies

by Fred Fuld III

Are you looking for a unique way to celebrate labor day? How about investing in stocks of companies based in the United States, and has their manufacturing in the US also.

Unfortunately, there are not many to pick from, but there are a few which do most or all of their manufacturing domestically.

Weber Inc. (WEBR) manufactures all but one of their latest models in Palatine, Illinois. All non-gas Weber grills are assembled at the company’s headquarters in Palatine, Illinois, but globally sourced components are used. The stock just went public a month ago.
Thor Industries, Inc. (THO) makes Airstream Trailers at the company’s plant in Jackson Center, Ohio. The stock has a price to earnings ratio of 12 and offers a dividend yield of 1.43%.
Herman Miller, Inc. (MLHR) makes its high quality furniture in Zeeland, Michigan. The stock has a P/E ratio of 15 and pays a yield of 1.76%.
Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc. (SWBI) has manufacturing facilities at its headquarters i Springfield, Massachusetts as well as Maine and Tennessee. The stock trades at four times earnings and sports a yield of 1.45%.
Harley-Davidson, Inc. (HOG) based in Milwaukee, does almost all of its manufacturing in the U.S. with a very small amount of production overseas. The stock has a P/E of 12 and yields 1.53%.
Intel (INTC) currently produces more than 75 percent of its microprocessors in the U.S.  The stock trades at 12 times earnings and pays a yield of 2.6%.
Surprisingly, or maybe not surprisingly, almost all these companies pay a dividend. Go USA!

Should You Be investing in the Olympics?

by Fred Fuld III

The 2020 Olympic Games began on Friday, July 23, in 2021 of course. If you haven’t been watching the Olympics, you are missing the greatest sports event of the year.

The Olympic Games have many sponsors and several of these worldwide Olympic Partners are publicly traded.

Some investors believe that the sponsoring of this event will help increase revenues for the company sponsors. Others believe that if these companies are putting up all this money, that they expect a return on their investment.

So if you have wondered if investing in these companies would provide a good return, then check out the results below.

Olympics Stock Index

Company Symbol Price 7/23/21 Price 8/4/21 Gain/Loss
Airbnb ABNB 138.73 147.4 6.25%
Alibaba BABA 206.53 200.71 -2.82%
Bridgestone BRDCY 21.88 21.93 0.23%
Coca-Cola KO 57.01 56.1 -1.60%
Dow Chemical DOW 60.11 60.99 1.46%
General Electric GE 101.68 102.91 1.21%
Intel INTC 53 53.9 1.70%
Panasonic PCRFY 12.21 12.19 -0.16%
Procter & Gamble PG 139.79 142.43 1.89%
Toyota TM 179.85 182.18 1.30%
VISA V 249.02 236.67 -4.96%
TOTAL 1219.81 1217.41 -0.20%
EQUAL WEIGHT RETURN -7.96%

You will notice that the worst performers to date are VISA (V) and Alibaba (BABA) and the best are Airbnb (ABNB) and Procter & Gamble (PG).

Based on an equal weighting of all the companies, the total return from the start of the Olympics on July 23 to today, August 4, is a negative 7.96%, far worse than the market as a whole. The S&P 500 was only down 0.21% during that same time frame.

Yet there is still more time for the Olympics Stock Index to recover as the events don’t end until August 8.

Is Now the Time to Invest in Discounted CEFs?

by Fred Fuld III

Do you realize that it is possible to buy stocks at a discount to their current trading prices? Here is how.

You can invest in closed end funds, also known as CEFs, that are trading at a discount to Net Asset Value, also known as NAV. The NAV is similar to the book value of stocks. In other words the NAV is calculated by adding up the value of all the stocks in the portfolio, and dividing that amount by the number of outstanding shares.

A closed end fund is similar to a regular mutual fund except that they trade throughout the day while the market is open and the trading price of the CEFs can fluctuate way above or way below the NAV. In addition, the number of shares is fixed. There are many closed end funds that are trading at a discount of over 10% of their net asset value. Many investors invest in these discounted CEFs in the hopes that the gap between NAV and price per share will eventually narrow.

One example is RMR Real Estate Income (RIF) managed by RMR Advisors. The fund is trading at a 16.3% discount to net asset value and based on their latest stockholdings, owns Prologis (PLD) and Sun Communities (SUI). The expense ratio is a high 3.08%.

If you are concerned about real estate stocks, another deeply discounted Dividend and Income Fund (DNI),managed by Bexil Advisors, which is trading at a 16% discount to NAV. The fund’s stockholdings include Comcast (CMCSA), AutoZone (AZO), Intel (INTC) and Amgen (AMGN). The fund’s expense ratio is 2.12% and pays a generous dividend yield of about 7.5%.

Another example is Central Securities (CET) which trades at a discount to NAV of 15.2%. It has a yield of 4.1%. The fund’s stockholdings include Intel (INTC), Citigroup (C), and Alphabet / Google  (GOOG) (GOOGL). Investors should be aware that over 22% of the portfolio’s assets are invested in The Plymouth Rock Company, which is not publicly traded. Also, over 3% of the portfolio in invest in treasury bills. The fund’s expense ratio is a reasonable 0.67%.

However, there are several risks with investing in discounted CEFs. First, the gap may exist for a long time, and can even widen. Second, the gap could theoretically narrow but the stocks in the portfolio could drop, so the fund would drop in price also. Third, is that many CEFs hold illiquid, private, or non-trading stocks, and the NAV is based on how the company valuates those shares, which may be a much higher value than what they could get if they tried to liquidate those stocks. Plus, some funds may own real estate or mortgages, which are very hard to value.

Sometimes activist shareholders buy up a large amount of shares of heavily discounted CEFs and force the liquidation of those CEFs, in order to realize the net asset value. Before investing in any of these, check out the web site of the CEFs to see what stocks they own, and how many are invested in illiquid shares.

Hopefully, you can find bargains with a closed end fund.
