good list but where does a company like P&G get growth with no big new brands coming out and the only other growth would be from aquisitions which Gillette proved to be a huge drain on share holder equity? Plus who will be able to afford their high prices?

These six companies can be a near ideal anchor stocks in a dividend growth portfolio.

From what I’ve seen ITW is extremely cheap at the moment

The funny thing about this list, had you made it 1.5 years ago – it would be a lot largely, with many names that look terrible today.

My take from all the recent madness is that

“Ability To Generate Positive Free Cash Flows” – and identifying the risks to this is the most important factor.

Take GE for example – because the majority of their growth over the past 5+ years was coming from their financial services division, derailment to that part of the business could have (and did have) disasterous effects on earnings potential. Almost like a too many eggs in one basket for them.

D4L,

That sounds like a great list. But with only 6 companies I wouldn’t bet the farm on it. In order to have at least some adequate diversification I won’t settle with less than 30 stocks in a portfolio from a variety of industries.
