While we have covered $WSM in several previous episodes, it is a case study on dividend growth investing. In what normally takes 10+ years to deliver to investors, Williams Sonoma has provided us with attractive dividend growth and total return in less than 3 years. In this "express mail" episode, Greg looks at Williams-Sonoma's latest earnings and how recent weakness in the stock price could be a long-term positive for total return. He analyzes how if the stock goes lower, there is room for more share repurchases, which boosts dividend growth and earnings growth. Additionally, he points out that if the stock turns around and goes much higher again, we may consider selling more of the stock. As we stand somewhere in the middle, Greg concludes by looking at where he would buy into the stock again.00:55 Special Episode: Williams Sonoma Earnings Update01:24 Williams Sonoma: A Case Study in Dividend Growth02:33 Strategic Decisions and Market Reactions05:22 Evaluating Dividend Growth and Future Prospects12:27 Conclusion and Investment StrategySend us Fan Mail________ Disclaimer: Past performance does not guarantee future results.
