      <title>Dividend Aristocrats Keep Raising Their Dividends</title>
      <guid>http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3124705</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[Overall investors have mainly been focusing on dividend cuts in 2009. I believe that most stocks that pay out dividends are cyclical in nature. Thus, they do not have the specific competitive advantages, which provide for a long and sustainable annual dividend increases over time.  The starting list for any dividend growth investor, who is looking for companies, which have a proven track record of consistently raising their dividends for 25 years, is the<a href=http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3124705>[More...]</a>]]></description>

      <title>Dividend Aristocrats Strike Back</title>
      <guid>http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3060144</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[In a week that saw major US indexes fall to fresh multi year lows, there is a group of investors who still remain optimistic. No, this is not a scam touting penny stocks that would bring instant riches. It’s also not a post about some computerized technical analysis program that will turn stones into diamonds. The strategy is called dividend growth investing, and it is the fundamental way of picking shareholder friendly stocks, which reward their owners with an increasing stream of dividend income. Some of the best dividend stocks are included in the Dividend Aristocrats index, which<a href=http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3060144>[More...]</a>]]></description>

      <title>Sherwin-Williams : 'The Turn' Is Nowhere To Be Found</title>

      <description><![CDATA[Speaking of thesis, right before the crash upon the crash (mid Sep to late Nov 2008) the thesis mongers were running up all things housing related because &quot;housing will rebound in 6 months&quot;. I outlined many of these names with the (ironically) strong charts on Sept 11 (Sep 11: Hot Money Says a Housing Turn is Coming Soon) I wrote  The data points say &quot;no recovery&quot; and the executives in many cases say &quot;no recovery&quot; but that doesn't stop hot money from piling in, assuming a &quot;recovery in 6 months&quot;. Maybe it's true, maybe it's not. If March 2009 marks the bottom in housing I'll come on and say &quot;I was wrong - what an idiot I was, the American consumer is far better than I imagined.&quot; But it really doesn't matter if March 2009 will be a bottom because people are making money assuming<a href=http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/2974049>[More...]</a>]]></description>

      <title>Best Dividends Stocks For The Long Run</title>
      <guid>http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/2885867</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[In his book, Stocks for the Long Run, Wharton Professor Jeremy Siegel proves that stocks have been the best performing investing for the past 200 years in the US. Equities outperformed other assets classes such as gold and fixed income. Typically, stock returns are derived from price appreciation and dividends. Dividend payments have historically accounted for 40% of the average annual stock market return. A lesser known fact is that reinvested dividends have provided for 97% of historical stock market returns.  During tough market conditions such as the 2008 bear market, investors realize the positive of getting a return on your investment even if prices are collapsing across the board. Add in dividend increases, and several<a href=http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/2885867>[More...]</a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;CHICAGO - Paint maker Sherwin-Williams Co. saw its first quarter profit fall by more than half, the company said Thursday, as paint sales slowed and the dismal housing market weighed down results.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;But the company's profit was still sharply better than expected, and its shares climbed to a three-month high in trading.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;For the three months that ended March 31, the company earned $37.3 million, or 32 cents per share.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;ul&gt;<a href=http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3197296>[More...]</a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;The ratings and Outlook for SHW are based on the company's leading   market position in the architectural coatings industry, the company's   unique distribution platform, the breadth and depth of its product   offerings, the company's focus on painting contractors and property   maintenance managers, solid free cash flow generation and strong   management team. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Risk factors include the effects of the sluggish   housing, home improvement and commercial market sectors on the company's   architectural paint segment, volatile raw material costs, the company's   relatively aggressive growth strategy and lead-based paint litigation   cases against SHW,.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Absent a significant spike in energy prices, SHW's margins should   continue to show year-over-year improvements during the second half of   2009 as lower raw material prices and cost reductions help offset the   impact of lower paint volumes.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;ul&gt;<a href=http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3426892>[More...]</a>]]></description>

      <title>The Sherwin-Williams Company Reports 2009 Second Quarter and Six Months Financial Results</title>
      <guid>http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3361441</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[The Sherwin-Williams Company announced its financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2009. Compared to the same periods in 2008, consolidated net sales decreased $281.7 million, or 12.6%, to $1.95 billion in the quarter and decreased $512.7 million, or 12.8%, to $3.50 billion in six months due primarily to weak paint sales volume. Unfavorable currency translation rate changes decreased consolidated net sales 2.2% in the quarter and 2.6% in six months while acquisitions added less than 1.0% to consolidated net sales in the quarter and six months.Diluted net income per common share in the quarter decreased to $1.35 per share from $1.45 per share in 2008 and decreased in six months to $1.66 per share from $2.07 per share last year. Last year, asset impairment charges of approximately $.12 per share were recorded in the second quarter. In the quarter, currency translation rate changes reduced diluted net income per common share by approximately $.03 per share and acquisitions had no significant impact. In six months, acquisitions and currency translation rate changes, combined, reduced diluted net income per common share by approximately $.05 per share. Diluted net income per common share decreased in the quarter and six months due primarily to lower sales volume, reduced fixed cost absorption associated with lower manufacturing volume and incremental site exit costs partially offset by favorable product sales mix, selling, general and administrative expense control and a lower effective tax rate. Net sales in the Paint Stores Group decreased 13.7% to $1.17 billion in the quarter and 13.3% to $2.07 billion in six months due primarily to weak architectural paint sales volumes in the domestic new residential, residential repaint, commercial and DIY markets and significantly lower sales in industrial coatings and non-paint categories. Net sales from stores open for more than twelve calendar months decreased 13.5% in the quarter and 13.1% in six months over last year's comparable periods. Paint Stores Group segment profit decreased to $193.5 million in the quarter from $210.4 million last year and to $250.1 million in six months from $293.7 million last year due primarily to lower sales volume partially offset by the effect of price increases over the last eighteen months, reductions in selling, general and administrative expenses and second quarter 2008 impairment charges of $20.4 million. Segment profit as a percent to net sales increased in the quarter to 16.5% from 15.5% last year and decreased in six months to 12.1% from 12.3% in six months of 2008.Net sales of the Consumer Group decreased 4.5% to $366.5 million in the quarter and 2.4% to $654.6 million in six months due primarily to lower volume sales to most of the Group's retail customers partially offset by additional sales related to new products. Segment profit increased to $66.1 million in the quarter from $58.8 million last year and increased as a percent to net external sales to 18.0% from 15.3% last year due primarily to a favorable sales mix, favorable freight and other distribution costs and a second quarter 2008 impairment charge of $2.7 million. Consumer Group segment profit in six months decreased to $96.3 million from $101.6 million and declined as a percent to net external sales to 14.7% from 15.1% last year due primarily to reduced fixed cost absorption from lower manufacturing and distribution volume and incremental site exit costs partially offset by good expense control. Two acquisitions in the Consumer Group had no significant impact on net sales or segment profit.The Global Finishes Group's net sales stated in U.S. dollars decreased 16.2% to $409.7 million in the quarter and 18.8% to $772.2 million in six months due primarily to lower paint sales volume and unfavorable currency translation rate changes that were partially offset by acquisitions and selling price increases. In the quarter and six months, unfavorable currency translation rate changes decreased net sales of the Global Finishes Group in U.S. dollars by 8.5% and 9.5%, respectively, and acquisitions increased net sales by 1.6% and 2.0%, respectively. Stated in U.S. dollars, Global Finishes Group segment profit in the quarter decreased to $31.2 million from $48.0 million and decreased in six months to $36.5 million from $91.1 million last year. Unfavorable currency translation rates and acquisitions had a negative effect of $5.9 million on segment profit in the quarter and $8.4 million in six months. Segment profit declined in the quarter and six months primarily due to reductions in sales and unfavorable operating efficiencies related to lower manufacturing volume partially offset by good expense control. Last year, a second quarter goodwill impairment charge of $.8 million was recorded. As a percent to net external sales, segment profit was 7.6% in the quarter versus 9.8% last year and 4.7% in six months compared to 9.6% in 2008. The Company acquired 0.5 million shares of its common stock through open market purchases in the quarter and 1.0 million shares in six months. The Company had remaining authorization at June 30, 2009 to purchase 18.75 million shares.Commenting on the second quarter and six months financial results, Christopher M. Connor, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, 'We continue to manage through this unprecedented downturn in global paint demand that has affected virtually every segment of the market. While we remain disappointed by our sales and earnings results in the second quarter and first half of 2009, we are encouraged by the significant progress we have made in many other areas of the company. Our management teams have taken decisive action to streamline their operations in response to deteriorating market conditions. We believe we have gained share in most segments of the market and we are positioned to emerge from this recessionary cycle more efficient and more responsive to needs of our customers.'As a result of lower paint demand, our Paint Stores Group has undertaken appropriate expense reduction measures but still remains focused on providing superior, knowledgeable customer service and gaining business in all markets and product lines. Our Consumer Group faces many of the same overall market challenges as Paint Stores Group but they have managed to offset some of the market volume softness with new product introductions. Many of the difficult steps Consumer Group has taken to bring fixed costs into line with volumes are starting to show results and we will continue to control our operating costs until manufacturing volumes return to levels that will support more normal profitability for the Group. We also continued to see declines in paint demand in our Global Finishes Group but we are pleased with the way management and employees in that Group controlled spending and reduced inventories in relation to sales levels during some very difficult and challenging economic and financial conditions in many of the countries in which we do business.'During these periods of reduced volume demand, our operating groups have shown great discipline in controlling their spending and managing their working capital. In the first six months of 2009, our selling, general and administrative expenses were below last year in dollars spent by nearly $67 million and our working capital ratio at June 30, 2009 improved to 13.0% from 14.1% last year. We are continuing to invest in our business. For the year, we expect our Paint Stores Group to open 40 to 50 new stores while slowing the rate at which we close redundant store locations. We acquired five separate companies since the beginning of 2008, including Inchem in Southeast Asia, Euronavy in Portugal and Altax in Poland. Although these acquisitions, along with two domestic acquisitions, had just a small impact on our second quarter and six months consolidated sales and operating results, they increase our breadth of product offerings, expand our global reach and are important assets to our world-wide presence. During the quarter, we continued to buy shares of our stock and pay a cash dividend of $.355 per common share - more than our target rate of 30% of prior year's diluted net income per common share. Our balance sheet continues to be fiscally sound and capable of financing our planned business operations and growth in the foreseeable future.'During the third quarter of 2009, we anticipate consolidated net sales will be 10% to 13% below last year's third quarter. We expect diluted net income per common share for the third quarter will be in the range of $1.15 to $1.45 per share compared to $1.52 per share in 2008. For the full year 2009, we anticipate consolidated net sales will be 11% to 12.5% lower than 2008. With sales at that level, we expect diluted net income per common share for full year 2009 will be in the range of $3.30 to $3.80 per share compared to $4.00 per share earned in 2008.'The Company will conduct a conference call to discuss its financial results for the second quarter and six months and its outlook for the third quarter and full year 2009 at 11:00 a.m. ET today, July 21, 2009.

      <title>Statement on Wisconsin Supreme Court Opinion on Lead Pigment Litigation</title>
      <guid>http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3348156</guid>
      <description><![CDATA[Statement by Charles H. Moellenberg, Jr., an attorney for The Sherwin-Williams Company, on the Wisconsin Supreme Court&amp;#39;s decision in Ruben Baez Godoy v. E.I. DuPont de Nemours, et. al., a case that began in January 2006: &amp;#34;The Wisconsin Supreme Court followed established law by rejecting plaintiff&amp;#39;s claim that lead pigment is defective because it contains lead,&amp;#34; said Charles H. Moellenberg, Jr., an attorney for The Sherwin-Williams Company. &amp;#34;Lead is an inherent part of any lead pigment.&amp;#34; In its opinion today, the Wisconsin Supreme Court affirmed lower court rulings. The Supreme Court said: &amp;#34;We determine that the circuit court correctly concluded that the complaint failed to state claims of defective design. A claim for defective design cannot be maintained where the presence of lead is the alleged defect in design, and its very presence is a characteristic of the product itself. Without lead, there can be no white lead carbonate pigment. The complaint fails to allege a design feature that makes the design of white lead carbonate pigment defective.&amp;#34;&amp;#34;Interior lead-based house paint has not been made in more than 50 years,&amp;#34; Moellenberg said. &amp;#34;When it was made, it was sought after because it was washable and durable. Federal and state governments recommended and even required the use of lead paint on government housing projects and other buildings until the late 1970s. Litigation alleging novel legal theories against former manufacturers of a lawful product is a distraction from the proven solution of enforcing the law against landlords who neglect their property and expose children to lead paint hazards.&amp;#34;For more information, visit www.leadlawsuits.com Contact: Prism Public Affairs<a href=http://www.istockanalyst.com/article/viewarticle/articleid/3348156>[More...]</a>]]></description>
