I look for wonderful businesses at fair prices that pay quality dividends. A quality dividend is one that is safe, expected to grow meaningfully, and part of an attractive total return. My research focuses on SWOT analysis, forward-looking information, and DCF and/or DDM valuation models. I have an MBA in Finance and have worked in several industries. I use my experience to find companies that are well-run, generate ample cash, and offer a sustainable competitive advantage. I aim to avoid catching falling knives and chasing yield traps. I am a long-term investor and look for stocks that I’d be willing to hold for decades. I also look for stocks in different sectors and industries for the sake of portfolio diversification, focusing especially on companies that don’t receive much coverage. My motivation for writing on Seeking Alpha is to share my ideas and findings with the goal of inspiring other investors to research DGI opportunities further and to perform their own due diligence.
