2025 Dogs of the Dow Revealed: High-Yield Stocks for Income Investors🐶
Learn how the Dogs of the Dow strategy identifies undervalued dividend stocks in 2025.🏄
Hey, MFG!
Happy New Years to you and your family!!
The Dogs of the Dow is a time-tested investment strategy for income-focused investors. The concept is simple: at the start of each year, investors pick the 10 highest dividend-yielding stocks from the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA).
The idea is that these stocks, often undervalued or overlooked, offer a combination of steady dividend income and potential for capital appreciation.
For 2025, the Dogs of the Dow offer intriguing opportunities as they trade at relatively low valuations compared to the broader market.
Let’s dive into this year’s picks, the strategy’s history, and what they mean for investors!!
I truly appreciate you and your support and I can’t thank you enough.

2025 Dogs of the Dow Revealed: High-Yield Stocks for Income Investors
The History of the Dogs of the Dow
The Dogs of the Dow strategy was popularized in 1991 by Michael B. O'Higgins in his book Beating the Dow. The approach was built on a simple, yet powerful premise: higher-yielding stocks in the DJIA are often undervalued, providing a buying opportunity.👈💰
By focusing on dividend yield, O’Higgins argued that investors could identify companies that were temporarily out of favor with the market. These "Dogs" typically recover over time, offering both dividend income and potential price appreciation.
Historically, the Dogs of the Dow strategy has delivered mixed results, with periods of significant outperformance as well as years of underperformance.
However, its simplicity, focus on blue-chip stocks, and emphasis on income have made it a favorite among value and income investors for decades.
How the Strategy Works✍️
At the beginning of each year:
Identify the 10 Dow stocks with the highest dividend yields.
Allocate an equal amount to each stock.
Hold the stocks for the entire year and rebalance annually.
If you know the Money Flow and have trading skills, you can buy these Dogs on stage 1 setups.
The logic behind this strategy is straightforward: higher yields often signal undervaluation. Over time, as these stocks recover, investors benefit from both dividend payments and price appreciation.
The 2025 Dogs of the Dow🐶
This year’s Dogs of the Dow have an average dividend yield of 3.5%, significantly higher than the Dow’s overall yield of 2%. These high-yielding stocks may present attractive value opportunities in a market trading at stretched valuations.👈
Here are the 2025 Dogs:
Verizon VZ 0.00%↑
Chevron CVX 0.00%↑
Amgen AMGN 0.00%↑
Johnson & Johnson JNJ 0.00%↑
Merck MRK 0.00%↑
Coca-Cola KO 0.00%↑
IBM IBM 0.00%↑
Cisco CSCO 0.00%↑
McDonald's MCD 0.00%↑
Procter & Gamble PG 0.00%↑
2025 Outlook and Key Insights💎
Valuation: These stocks trade at an average price-to-earnings ratio of 16, significantly lower than the S&P 500’s 22. This suggests room for potential upside if valuations normalize.
Dividend Stability: With blue-chip names like JNJ, PG, and KO on the list, these companies are known for maintaining or increasing dividends even during economic downturns.
Sector Diversification: The 2025 list includes a mix of sectors, from healthcare (Merck, Amgen) to consumer staples (Coca-Cola, Procter & Gamble), which helps reduce concentration risk.
Should You Consider the Dogs of the Dow?🧠
While the strategy has delivered strong results in some years, it’s not without risks.👈
High-dividend stocks can underperform during growth-driven bull markets or face sector-specific headwinds, as seen in 2024 when the Dogs underperformed the DJIA 0.00%↑ by 14 percentage points and lagged the S&P 500 SPY 0.00%↑ by 25 points.
High-dividend stocks can also outperform during bear markets.👈
For traders and investors, the Dogs of the Dow can be a complementary strategy, providing consistent income with potential for price recovery; however, it’s essential to balance this with more dynamic trades and consider market conditions as an astute Money Flow trader and investor.💪
