Nice Time To Beef Up Your Dividend Portfolio

٢٣ ديسمبر ٢٠١٩

Altria is finally trading above the 200 SMA and been trending up since the beginning of Oct. The ex dividend date is 12/24 and the dividend yield is an excellent 6.7%. It's PE is also pretty darn good at 12.82, and the consensus target price is 54.86. That would be 7.29% upside (it's current price is 51.13), plus an incoming dividend payment. IMHO this would be great timing to add this ticker to a dividend portfolio.

I know the RSI is somewhat high, but waiting for a pullback could mean missing the dividend; and, if the rally continues it could get higher and stay that way for some time. Too bad I didn't notice this early last week.
