The Dow Jones Industrials is a prestigious list of companies to begin with. By sorting these stocks to find the ten companies with the highest dividend yield, you are automatically choosing companies that are undervalued relative to their peers. By refreshing the list each year, you’re always picking new “dogs” – the ones that stand the greatest chance of catching up with their peers.

The Dogs of the Dow for 2008 are:

Stock Symbol Company Name 2007 Close Dividend Yield
C Citigroup, Inc. 29.44 7.34%
PFE Pfizer, Inc. 22.73 5.63%
GM General Motors 24.89 4.02%
MO Altria Group 75.58 3.97%
VZ Verizon Communications, Inc. 43.69 3.94%
T AT&T, Inc. 41.56 3.85%
DD Du Pont De Nemours 44.09 3.72%
