The Bottom Fishing Club - Flowers Foods: Defensive Bargain With Nearly 7% Dividend
Flowers Foods is something of a defensive gem, in business for 100 years, as a top baker/breadmaker in America. It's easy to argue the stock is trading at a 20-year low valuation, that is unlikely to remain depressed for very long. Cash yields are incredibly high. The 6.7% dividend and 12% free cash flow rates on investment may be the best numbers in the major food category of stocks.
