With Interest Rates the Highest Since 2007, These 6 Warren Buffett Dividend Stocks Could Be Huge Winners

Bank of America

This is one of the biggest in the country, and Buffett owns a stunning 1.1 billion of its shares. Bank of America Corp. (NYSE: BAC) is a ubiquitous presence in the United States, providing various banking and financial products and services for individual consumers, small and middle-market businesses, institutional investors, corporations and governments in the United States and internationally. It operates 5,100 banking centers, 16,300 ATMs, call centers and online and mobile banking platforms.

Bank of America has expanded into several new U.S. markets, with scale across the country positioning it ideally to benefit from accelerating loan growth over the next two years. Moreover, unlike smaller peers, scale allows the bank to increase investment substantially over the next few years without notably jeopardizing returns, driving further market share gains.

Shareholders receive a 3.26% dividend. Oppenheimer’s $53 target price is well above the $40.43 consensus target, and Bank of America stock closed on Thursday at $26.97.
