U.S. companies with a track record of raising dividends have become “abnormally cheap,” according to Andrew Garthwaite, a global strategist at Credit Suisse Group AG. Garthwaite endorsed the so-called dividend aristocrats in a report Thursday. Valuations of the S&P 500 Index’s aristocrats relative to the U.S. stock benchmark fell as much as 5.5% from a high on May 13 through Thursday, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The decline is based on forward price-earnings ratios, which Garthwaite cited in the report.

Investors in Google’s owner, Alphabet Inc., would rather not have the right to vote these days. Class A voting shares of the Internet-search site have closed as much as 4.3% lower this month than Class C non-voting stock, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The discount compares with an average premium of 1.3% since the C shares were introduced in 2014. Both classes are part of the S&P 500 Index. Google’s founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, together control more than 50% of Alphabet’s voting rights by owning Class B shares.
