A good, old, basic Midwestern company with a simple model--they sell stuff we need to build things (big or little). I use their products, see them used more often, and see them in various stores (Lowe's, Home Depot, Menard's). I first considered them as an investment back in the 1990's when I began using their products. They have a solid history of dividends and dividend growth with a reasonable payout ratio. As investments go, they're boring. I like that.
