Don Wordell discusses Ceredex Value Advisors LLC. Mr. Wordell manages the firm’s Mid-Cap Value Equity strategy, and every stock in the portfolio pays a dividend. He likes dividend-paying companies for three reasons: Dividends are an important source of total return; historically, the companies have lower volatility; and dividends promote financial transparency and discipline. Also, according to Mr. Wordell, for investors looking for income, many of the stocks in the portfolio have dividend yields greater than the 10-year Treasury bond. In addition to finding companies that pay dividends, Mr. Wordell wants companies with attractive valuations and solid fundamental catalysts.
