10 Best Yield Ideas In An Low Interest Stock Market

With Treasury yields near historical lows and dividend-paying stocks near record highs, it is getting harder for investors to find income while minimizing the risk of capital losses.

We identified 10 companies with above-market yields, below-market price/earnings ratios, and other favorable payout- and earnings-related characteristics that could reward shareholders in multiple ways in coming years. Ranked by yield, from a high of 4.3% to a low of 2.4%.

These are the results...

13 Potential Dividend Kings To Buy For The Next Decade

Long-term dividend growth has a big lack. It focuses only on stocks with a long-term dividend hike.

If a company pays no dividend but buys back tons of its own stock, it means not that the company is bad. The company has the same quality but will not see as a long-term dividend growth investment.

That's one reason why I'm trying to put some buyback kings into the screen. Another lack is that future dividend kings, who are only 3 years on the market and paid two years dividends to the public, will not be included into the search results. 

For sure those stocks with a short business age also offer higher risks, but sometimes the business runs for decades but was private.

Today I like to show you a few interesting stocks that have risen dividends over more than 5 consecutive years. Each of the stocks could become a dividend champion or dividend king one day. 

But the risk to fail is also higher than for stocks that are still playing the dividend champions league. Exactly 412 stocks managed to grow dividends over more than 5 years. 

Here are my personal favorites...

34 Best Dividend Stocks With A 100 Year Long History

Blue chip stocks are established large-cap businesses that pay reliable dividends. 

They have long corporate histories and provide well-known products and/or services. 


This article examines every business in the S&P 500 with a 3% yield and a 100+ year corporate history. These are my criteria:

- Stocks with yields at or above 3%

- Low P/E ratios
- Strong competitive advantage
- Over 100 Years in Business

These are the best ideas that came into my minds...

25 Safe High-Yield Dividends From The Russell 2000


Income investors are seeking for growth, high yields and stability in dividend payments.

The major indices like S&P 500 or Dow Jones summarize a lot of high-quality stocks at a high level of safeness.

But most of the stocks are also highly valuated while sales growth is only modest.

If we look at the bigger brother, we come back to Russell 2000. The Russell 3000 Index comprises the companies in the large-cap Russell 1000 Index and the small-cap Russell 2000 names. 

Attached you will find the 100 largest (by market cap) stocks in the Russell 3000 for dividends to find the 25 highest-yielding names. 

Here are the 25 Best Yielding stocks from the Russell 2000...

12 Solid Dividend Stock Bets For High Income Investors

Dividend-paying stocks have been bid up in recent years as investors seek alternatives to low bond yields. 

But even factoring in the higher valuations, at least one research firm insists that certain dividend-paying stocks still make sense considering the alternatives and the likelihood that monetary policies at various central banks will keep a lid on interest rates for a while. 

Stocks with strength in their balance sheets and the reliability of their dividends, could be seen as more risk-free than debt is.

Attached I've compiled a few stocks that offer a high degree of dividend safeness with room to grow them over time.

Each of the results offer a dividend yield over 3 percent.

Here are the results...

Retirees Count On These Solid Dividend Stocks For Greater Income And Long-Term Stability

Dividend stocks make for a great investment choice if you're looking to boost your income in retirement. 

But the key lies in selecting strong dividend-paying companies with solid growth avenues and financials to ensure they can sustain dividends during difficult times and offer a nice raise when things are smooth.

Finding such a company, however, isn't an easy job. Keeping that in mind, we asked our contributors to suggest dividend stock ideas that are perfect for retirees to own. Here are six names to consider.

13 Dividend Income Stocks On Which Dividend Re-Investing Works (Value At Deep Discounts)

My personal portfolio goal is to create an income stream from dividends paid out by low risk, financially strong (high-quality) companies. Reinvesting your portfolio income is also an essential part for your financial freedom.

Reinvesting your dividends received from high-quality dividend growth stocks is a great, relatively conservative and proven way to build wealth over the long term.

This is especially true and appropriate for investors in the accumulation phase that are planning for future retirement. Accumulating additional shares of dividend growth stocks can, and will, provide an increasing and eventually larger stream of income available at retirement when income is needed most.

Attached you can find a list of stocks that might be interesting for long-term investors who like to reinvest their dividends in their portfolio while looking at raising dividends.

My main focus was on valuation. If you buy a stock at a moderate valuation, your initial yield should help you to get a solid starting yield.

Every stock on the attached list has a dividend yield of more than 3 percent. Debt-to-equity ratio is under 1, EPS growth for the next five years over 5% and the forward P/E under 15

As a result, 13 stocks remained on my screen. Some of them might also be interesting. It's a first step for further research but good to find value stocks with a decent income as inflation hedge.

Here are 13 top stocks for re-investing...

These 20 Stocks Could Benefit From Higher Rates

The current problem on the market could be descried with the following sentence: Rising rates could let to a falling dollar. 

In contraction, Investors expect the US Dollar to rally, undermining equities and furthering headwinds to S&P 500 EPS and also amplified stress for EM borrowers (USD denom. debt). 

History says that the consensus is wrong and counters intuitively, when the Fed moves to neutral from easy (11 most recent cycles), USD weakened 55% of the time, with a median decline of 7% in the first year.

Below I've implemented screen results of stocks that might benefit from rising rate hikes. Stocks from the screen have fulfilled the following criteria:

Stock selection criteria...

(i) Stock’s price correlation to the USD (DXY Index) from 5/2014 – 3/2015 is less than -0.40

(ii) Mean implied upside based on analyst target prices is positive

(iii) P/E (‘15E and ‘16E) is below 25X but consensus EPS is positive

(iv) FCF yield is above 3%

(v) Company beat consensus EPS expectations the last 2 quarters.

George Soros Highest Yielding Dividend Stocks

Beside Warren Buffett, George Soros is also a popular investor. He was born in 1930 in Hungary where he fled in 1947 to avoid the onset of communism.

Soros went to England where he graduated from the London School of Economics. He then moved to the United States and eventually opened his own hedge fund which would later be called the Quantum Fund.

Here are four high-yield holdings in that fund. Soros managed to achieve a 30% annual return with high Quantum Fund.

Today I like to introduce those stocks from his portfolio with high yields. Here are the highest yielding large cap results:

10 High Yielding Stocks With Reliable Dividends

If you are a yield investor, you should look at my screening results from today. I've compiled 10 top yielding stocks from the S&P 500 with reliable dividends and a yield of at least 3.5 percent.

About 60 companies in the S&P 500 have yields of 3% or more. To make our cut, each company needs to cover its dividend from estimated 2015 earnings.

I excluded oil stocks and real estate investment trusts as well as master limited partnerships, which are valued differently than regular corporations using cash-flow measures rather than reported earnings.

These are my results....

5 Top Dividend Stocks With 50% Earnings Growth Forecasts

Who are the best dividend stocks for the next five years? That's a good question and I also look for stocks with promising fundamentals.

I do desk research and fundamentals are the most important source of information which I can use.

As a result, GM and AbbVie are part of the results but take a look to create your own thoughts. These are the top results with a dividend yield over 3 percent.

The Cheapest Dividend Stocks From The S&P 500 - Dogs of the S&P

The S&P 500 is one of the most covered and popular indices in the world. The index also covers the best companies on this planet but, regretless, most of them are highly expensive.

21 Stock Ideas To Benefit From Weak Oil Prices

The oil price is in free fall and lost half of its value within the recent month. I love it when something changes in such a short period because often it could be a good sign for investors to find new investment targets.

The oil and gas or energy sector is very complicated. There are working many companies in this field and some of them suffering deeply under low oil prices. 

The bad news is that many stocks from the sector did not fall in the same amount as oil prices. One of the main reasons could be that market actors anticipate a mid or long-term oil price forecast of USD 100. That's enough for most of the industry leaders to make money and solid returns.

Not only basic material dividend stocks like Exxon or Chevron are the top picks. 

Indirect, companies with an energy intensive business model like industrial stocks, retailers, auto or restaurant stocks could get a short-term boost.

However, Today I like to share some investment ideas around the energy sector, who are not cheap now but could become an interesting investment.

Indirect oil related investment ideas

These 11 Top Yielding Stocks Have A Nearly Secure Dividend

I started a screen in order to hunt for the most guaranteeing dividend paying stocks.

I wish to concentrate on bigger, more diversified organizations in the U.S. because of their inalienable quality and solidness. Next, I will utilize three profit related criteria to choose several dividend all-stars. 

To start with, I will choose only those organizations with dividend yields of 3 percent or more. By the way, the sustainable of the dividend payments are also in focus of my research. 

It doesn't make sense when a company pays its investor one or two years and then cuts the income stream for the following once – I will screen for companies with a dividend coverage ratio of no less than 250 percent. 

The dividend coverage is characterized as the earnings in relation to the dividend payments. The higher the ratio, the lower the dividend payouts and the higher the dividend coverage should be. 

Good companies, like Dividend Kings, can pay stable dividends or let grow when despite earnings are falling by 50 percent due to high dividend coverage.

At last, I will search for stocks with a reputation of raising their profit payouts over the long haul. I will search for a five-year normal dividend growth rate of not less than 3 percent every year. 

Attached are my 11 results of which five are highlighted in detail. I hope you find some values in my work and the current screen. Thank you for reading.

These are my favorites from the results…

5 Best Dividend Growth And Buyback Stocks Of The Week

One of my main thought related to investments is "how fast can the company pay my money back".

It's one of the basic principals in investing. Put your money into stocks that drive you cash back in a very short period of time. The smaller the pace, the bigger your return will be.

Warren Buffett bought BNSF Railway in November 3, 2009 for around USD 44 billion. It sounds like a huge amount of money but the railroad company who travelled 169 million miles in 2010 paid warren since his acquisition around $15 billion in dividends. Not bad for an old-school business.

Below I've compiled like each week stocks that have raised dividends during the past week. In addition, you can also find a list of those stocks which have released a share buyback program.

Receiving money, direct or indirect should help passive investors like me to hedge a minimum amount of return.
