Any thoughts on Amgen?
they're not a Dividend Champion, and they're in biotech, so I personally wouldn't cop shares MYSELF. I have a thing against most biotech companies on a personal level, and I also try to only cop dividend champions...with that said, there are several positions I've opened that are NOT dividend champions, so I'm not gonna tell u not to cop.
Amgen (AMGN) IS considered to be a Dividend Challenger, due to having been growing their dividends since 2011, which means they're on their way to being a Dividend Champion, and is currently in good company.
I would say do the research. the share price is currently high at the moment at $175.90, but the 52 week range is $133.64-$184.21. if I was interested in the company, that would almost squeak by my requirements as far as being undervalued. I'd prolly wanna hold off until it was closer to the $165-$170 range or lower, in order to offer a greater margin of error, but that's how EYE do things.
per Morningstar.com, their current forward P/E is 13.9 (u want companies that are 19-20 or lower), dividend yield is 2.38, dividend payout ratio is 39.4 (anything lower than 60 is good money, means that the dividend is sustainable for the next few years), ALL good looks when it comes to dividend growth investing. their dividends are paid quarterly.
the company's book price is currently 4.3. I wanna say that's on the high side, but @Sion is a better expert on that than I...their cash flow is lookin good, and their debt is pretty low at the moment as well...
long story short, while I wouldn't cop shares myself, I don't see why one wouldn't add shares of this company to their portfolio. I'd wait for the valuation to drop a little lower, but chea. -
Aight cool. Just picked up some this morning

Why the excitement? Increase in yield?

a good company's share price was "on sale," that's the best time to get excited.

How much capital would it take to build a portfolio that's worth 50k in dividends annually?

not an easy question to answer, due to lots of variables, [such as the yields of the stocks themselves, whether you're investing in ETFs (which have variable dividend payouts), versus companies, who usually raise their dividends in a linear fashion, etc.].
roughly though, for a portfolio to generate 50k in dividends annually, you're lookin at having a portfolio worth around 1.75 million - 2 million.
^not an impossible task, especially if a recession occurs during your wealth accumulation phase, but it will take some time. your savings rate and your window of time are the greatest contributors to reaching that goal. -

I don't have the capital to follow my own advice, but rn is a great time to purchase shares of Lowe's (LOW). due to an earnings miss, their share price is currently down 6%. they're already a Dividends Aristocrat.

Sheesh i thought i had it bad -
Not sure but I think I saw this pick on dailytraderalert. I'm probably going to pick up some shares within a few months. Should be a solid investment. -

I just read an article saying it could drop as low as 50 unless oil prices go up so im definitely gonna sit on this and wait for now -
thinking about buying into target (tgt), altria (mo), costco (cost) or exxon mobile (xom) tomorrow. if i get costco tho that will probly be the only stock i buy bc its $154/share but they are all for the low at the moment and pay quarterly dividends. Right now I only have general electric, twitter and Kingstone (insurance co) but thinking about selling them.
I'm literally just starting (this week) and using the robinhood app and Ally invest. -
