A little company with a little stock price and a little dividend … but listen up … Met-Pro Corp. is an income investor’s friend. Met-Pro, symbol MPR, costs less than $10 per share.
As you know, I rarely discuss stock price; I prefer to concentrate only on my chances of realizing more income every year from my income investments. However, for new income investors, a stock price of $10 is very appealing.
