  Among holdings in which Barrow, Hanley, Mewhinney & Strauss increased its stake were Intel (NASDAQ: INTC  ) and First Niagara Financial Group (NASDAQ: FNFG  ) . Intel sports a hefty dividend yield of 3.7%, and it hasn't upped that payout in nearly two years, as it invests more in growth with its cash flow. The company has been in a bit of a slump, posting underwhelming earnings and trying to boost its presence in the smartphones and tablets. Many see value in Intel, with its dominant market position, growing revenue and earnings, and significant payout. Investors need to take a long-term view, though.
