Dividend investing has always been a part of Nancy Tengler's career, which has spanned more than 40 years. She also looks at relative dividend yield, or the yield on the stock relative to its own history and the market, she explained. "It's really because of the power of the compounding of the dividend and the dividend growth." The tech giant authorized its first-ever dividend in April, so it does not have a history of dividend growth. "This is a name that's undervalued in many ways and they've kind of grown up as a company," Tengler said.

Andrew Aitchison | In Pictures | Getty ImagesIn case you haven't noticed, heat pumps are hot. But there are other reasons why heat pumps are fast becoming popular with homeowners. All of this is transforming Carrier Global , the nearly 100-year-old manufacturer whose founder, Willis Carrier, invented air conditioning. Heat pumps have a history dating back to 1850s The thermodynamic science behind heat pumps was developed in the 1850s, when the first ones were invented, and they've been used in homes since the 1960s. Heat pumps use electricity to transfer heat from a cool space to a warm space, making the cool space cooler and the warm space warmer.

REUTERS/Dado Ruvic/Illustration/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsHONG KONG, Nov 8 (Reuters) - Top executives at global asset managers on Wednesday talked up China at an event in Hong Kong on Wednesday, championing long-term investment opportunities in an economy battling to break free of pandemic disruption. "Long term, (China) has to be part of a global investment portfolio." Citadel Securities CEO Peng Zhao called China a driver of growth and innovation and said it was "baffling" to think otherwise. He also said Citadel doubled its Hong Kong headcount in the face of pandemic-induced challenges, leveraging the talent the city hosts and its connectivity to other markets. Quinn told the Hong Kong event on Tuesday that wealth flow from mainland China to Hong Kong has grown 3 to 4 times this year.

☆ The word 'ESG' is vanishing from earnings calls. Here's what companies are pitching instead

But Mahaffy's research found that it is not necessarily because companies have leaned away from socially conscious strategies. Instead, she pointed a growing use of the term "sustainability," as well as other words like "climate" or "decarbonization" that fall under the ESG umbrella. It comes at a time when ESG has become increasingly fraught in the political sphere. Mahaffry noted that areas like the U.S. where ESG has received the most scrutiny have seen the biggest drops in use of the term on earnings calls. On WestRock's earnings call earlier this month, Sewell told listeners: "This is just one example of many of how WestRock's unique capabilities position us for growth."

☆ Heat Pump Maker’s $13.3 Billion Sale Raises Questions in Germany
▼ + stars: | 2023-04-26 | by ( Melissa Eddy | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

The critical importance of heat pumps to the German economy was underscored this week when the sale of a family-owned maker of the heating machines to a U.S. company prompted a review by the government in Berlin. Carrier Global Corp. said Tuesday that it had agreed to pay 12 billion euros, or about $13.3 billion, to acquire a unit of Viessmann Group, based north of Frankfurt, that produces heat pumps. The cash-and-stock deal would allow Carrier to expand in Europe and capitalize on the green energy transition underway on the continent, the company said. It also comes days after Berlin announced a ban on new furnaces fired by fossil fuels, starting next year. “Climate change, sustainability requirements and geopolitical factors are driving an unprecedented energy transition in Europe,” David Gitlin, chief executive of Carrier, said in announcing the deal.

☆ Carrier CEO: It’s getting easier to recruit, but the war for talent is not over
▼ + stars: | 2022-11-21 | by ( Matt Egan | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

New York CNN Business —Carrier CEO David Gitlin has noticed a shift in the jobs market in recent months as the Federal Reserve slams the brakes on the economy and recession fears mount. “It’s become easier to recruit and retain talent than a year ago,” Gitlin told CNN on Friday by phone after meeting with President Joe Biden and other business leaders at the White House. That would mark a shift from the recent worker shortage that hit manufacturers like Carrier and most other businesses. Gitlin, whose company makes air conditioning, heating and refrigeration systems, said the jobs market remains pretty hot historically. Carrier said the energy-efficiency push will help the fight against climate change, while simultaneously boosting companies like his.
