It seems that even if the housing crisis does affect the company to a certain extent, in the long run its customers would keep buying paint every so often.dividend growthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11197290990687067072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3584696203336871201.post-37481690419488725182008-03-14T18:36:00.000-07:002008-03-14T18:36:00.000-07:00That is an interesting analysis of Sherwin Williams. I used to paint houses for 7 years and SW was the brand of choice. They have a solid product with a strong track record. I guess I never thought that they offered a nice opportunity for dividends. <BR/><BR/>Especially when you consider the average home is repainted every 4 to 6 years.TheLocoMonohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08897947517051583099noreply@blogger.com
