Buy 3 'Safer' Dividend Kings Of 25 From March's 55
The article highlights 55 Dividend Kings, noting that five of the top ten by yield offer annual dividends from a $1K investment exceeding their single share prices. Analysts predict top-ten Kingly net gains ranging from 12.57% to 50.26% for March 2026, with six out of ten top-yield Kings expected to be top gainers. Sixteen out of fifty-five Kings show negative free cash flow margins, making them cash-poor and unsafe to buy; focus on safer Kings like Altria, United Bankshares, and Hormel.
