Buy List News Today

Here are a few bits of news today regarding the Buy List.
Erin Burnett talked with Dave Roberts, the CEO of Graco (GGG). He says he doesn’t see an immediate recession.
Nicholas Financial (NICK) had a very good day today. The stock jumped 66 cents, which is an increase of over 6.1%. As far as I could tell, there was no news on the stock.
WR Berkley (BER) announced that it’s increasing its dividend by 20% to five cents a share. Unless I have something wrong, the old dividend was four cents a share, so the increase is by 25%. Here’s the press release. Things must be busy there.
Finally, Danaher (DHR) raised the lower end of its guidance today. The company now sees first-quarter profits of 75 cents to 77 cents a share. The previous forecast was for 72 cents to 77 cents a share.
