LEG-N
TOP PICK
Oct 26, 2017
This makes equipment for furniture and carpet padding. Their 2 biggest customers are Ford (F-N) and Toyota (TM-N). They just announced earnings, and revenues were up 6%. Any time you get 6% top line growth, that is terrific. On top of that, they announced that they increased their dividend, which is the 47th year in a row they’ve increased the dividend. Dividend yield of 3.01%. (Analysts’ price target is $53.) All 3 of his picks are below their all-time highs.
