      <title>Dividend Stocks Are Getting Expensive</title>
      <guid>http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3463462</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[Over the last several weeks, the number of dividend stocks my model identified as a buy has greatly declined. On July 3rd it flagged 14 stocks as potential buys verses only 7 stocks on August 29th. The August 29th list had the advantage of using a quarter point lower minimum dividend. Needless to say the recent market rally has made many dividend stocks expensive.<a href=http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3463462>[More...]</a>]]></description>

      <title>Dividend Stocks Offer Continuous Feedback</title>
      <guid>http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3459118</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[One of the many reasons I like dividend stocks is because they provide continuous feedback. As time passes, dividend investors see their income grow steadily. You don’t have to wait five to ten years to determine if the strategy is working. Each dividend and dividend increase provides reassurance that the strategy is working.<a href=http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3459118>[More...]</a>]]></description>

      <title>Biggest Declines Among S&amp;P</title>
      <guid>http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3408989</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[The following is a list of the S&amp;P 500 firms where the analysts have been cutting their expectations for the current fiscal year the most over the last month. Most likely these firms reported disappointing earnings or gave negative guidance on their conference calls.    Historically, you have not wanted to be invested in companies where the analysts who follow them most closely see the earnings prospects diminishing. Also, estimates in motion tend to remain in motion. The first bit of bad news is rarely the last (the cockroach theory). This means that the current expectations, even though down from last month, are probably still to high for these firms.      To weed out anomalies, only those firms that are currently expected to earn more than $0.50 in 2009 are included and only those firms where there are a minimum of three estimates in the system.      If you have these stocks in your portfolio, you might want to reconsider<a href=http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3408989>[More...]</a>]]></description>

      <title>Dover Corporation Reports Second Quarter 2009 Results</title>
      <guid>http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3371234</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[Dover Corporation announced today that for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009, earnings from continuing operations were $100.9 million or $0.54 diluted earnings per share , compared to $186.9 million or $0.98 EPS from continuing operations in the prior-year period, representing decreases of 46% and 45%, respectively. Revenue for the second quarter of 2009 was $1.4 billion, a decrease of 31% over the prior-year period. The revenue decrease was driven by a decline in core business revenue of 29%, a negative impact of foreign exchange of 3% and a 1% increase from net acquisitions. Earnings from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $162.0 million or $0.87 EPS, compared to $334.8 million or $1.74 EPS in the prior-year period, representing decreases of 52% and 50%, respectively. Revenue for the six month period ended June 30, 2009 was $2.8 billion, a decrease of 29% over the prior year period, and reflected a decline in core business revenue of 26% and a negative impact of foreign exchange of 3%. Earnings for both periods were favorably impacted by the expected benefits recognized for tax positions that were effectively settled in the quarter, resulting in a quarterly tax rate of 1.1% and a year-to-date tax rate of 17.4%.Commenting on the second quarter results, Dover's President and Chief Executive Officer, Robert A. Livingston, said, 'The weak year-over-year revenue trends seen in the first quarter continued into the second quarter across a large portion of our portfolio. While revenue was consistent with first quarter levels, both operating margin and earnings before taxes improved sequentially, largely reflecting the net benefits of our restructuring actions. This improvement, though modest, was achieved as we continued to make significant investments in long-term value creating initiatives, such as global supply chain. Despite tepid market conditions, we continued to execute on our objectives of delivering double-digit margins and focusing on cash flow. I am pleased that we achieved 11%+ operating margins and generated free cash flow of $165.5 million in the quarter. Free cash flow was 11.9% of revenue for the quarter, and 9.0% of revenue year-to date, signifying the strong focus our business leaders have in delivering solid results in a down market. Further, order trends improved on a sequential basis over the first quarter, suggesting a more stable demand environment.' 'We also continued to improve our long-term competitive position through thoughtful capital allocation. During the quarter, Hill Phoenix, a leading manufacturer of refrigeration systems and cases, acquired select assets of Tyler Refrigeration, a provider of similar products. This opens up additional business opportunities and allows us to better leverage the manufacturing and customer service capabilities inherent at Hill Phoenix. This acquisition underscores our commitment to grow our company in markets where we already exhibit strength and expertise.' 'Though quarterly order rates stabilized across most of our businesses, we still do not anticipate a meaningful second half recovery in the majority of our end-markets and distribution channels, resulting in a full year decrease in revenue of 24% - 26%. Based on this reduced revenue forecast, we estimate full year earnings per share will be in the range of $1.75 - $2.00. While demand levels are hard to predict, we will continue to work diligently to control our costs, while still pursuing the global supply chain initiative, so that we will be positioned to fully participate in the eventual market recovery.'Net earnings for the second quarter of 2009 were $97.1 million or $0.52 EPS, including a loss from discontinued operations of $3.8 million or $0.02 EPS, compared to net earnings of $135.3 million or $0.71 EPS for the same period of 2008, which included a loss from discontinued operations of $51.6 million or $0.27 EPS. Net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $150.5 million or $0.81 EPS, including a loss from discontinued operations of $11.5 million or $0.06 EPS, compared to net earnings of $282.5 million or $1.47 EPS for the same period of 2008, which included a loss from discontinued operations of $52.4 million or $0.27 EPS. Dover will host a webcast of its second quarter 2009 conference call at 9:00 A.M. Eastern Time on Friday, July 24, 2009.
