The next selection for the newly launched Inflation-Protected Income Growth Portfolio is distribution powerhouse Genuine Parts (NYSE: GPC). Perhaps best known for its NAPA Auto Parts chain, Genuine Parts is also in the business of distributing office supplies, electrical equipment, and industrial parts.
With a history of rising dividends that stretches back for 56 years, the company’s shareholder friendly behavior predates the Bush dividend tax cuts by several decades. That makes it highly unlikely the pattern will be derailed just because those cuts are slated to expire. And with a respectable payout ratio of 49%, it has considerable coverage even if things do go bad.

I think it's better this way.

GPC is basically a 3-part holding company. The largest part is NAPA at roughly half of total sales. GPC has a long history of rising dividends, a mark of a well run compnay.

Pulling back,, economy still in the doldrums. Currently paying a 3.49% yield at current prices. Expect further decreases over the summer.

Automotive parts will be good for some time since people in general are still feeling the effects of the recession, they are going to be keeping old cars longer, and doing what they can to keep those cars going.

Autos in need of parts and demand

Downside risk is pretty minimal, given the high, secure dividend and stable market. A 'boring' stock that Lynch would love.

Gotta fix the old one if you can't afford a new one. Awesome dividend play

Lots of demand for car parts!

5 Stars. Good yield. Plenty of free cash flow to cover the dividend. Cash to debt ratio is very reasonable considering they're in a capital intensive business. Margins are pretty good too.
