5 Beat-Up, Solid Dividend Growth Stocks

Price is what you pay. Value is what you get." - Warren Buffett While the S&P 500 has returned -2.9% YTD with one day left of trading in January 2014, several dividend growth stocks have been put under additional pressure with no apparent catalyst. Income investors looking to capitalize on these discounts are offered extremely attractive entry-points on several name-brand stocks.

The following five publicly-traded corporations are highly likely to be inflation-beating dividend growth achievers over the long term and are down an average of 8% on the year. These companies also have an average forward earnings yield of 7.6%, which is nearly a percentage point higher than the S&P 500, which looks to earn 6.7% on the year: Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. (WMT) Yield = 2.52%, Apple Inc. (AAPL) Yield = 2.44%, The Coca-Cola Company (KO) Yield = 2.93%, Philip Morris International, Inc. (PM) Yield = 4.76% and ConocoPhillips (COP) Yield = 4.2%.
