5 Attractively Valued Stocks With At Least One Dividend Hike

Cheap stocks are the basis for a good return. But the definition of cheapness is large. One ratio that measures the cheapness of a stock in relation to its growth is the Price-Earnings-To-Growth ratio (PEG ratio).

A PEG-value over one indicates that the stock could be overpaid. Today I would like to generate some fresh stock ideas by screening the market by attractively valuated dividend stocks that have raised dividends for at least one time.

These are my criteria in detail:

- Market cap is greater than USD 100 million

- Dividend yield is above 3%

- At least one dividend hike

- Total debt to equity is under 1

- 12Trailing P/E is less than 15

- Forward P/E is less than 15

- PEG ratio is less than 1

Only five stocks fulfilled these tighten criteria of which two are High-Yields. All results are currently recommended by brokerage firms.

19 Cheaply Valuated Stocks With Forces To Become The Next Top Dividend Grower On The Market

Dividend growth stocks on the move to become a real long-term dividend grower originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Dividend growth is a great and powerful tool for all normal and small investors to participate in a honest and passive way from the economic success of a corporate.

America is definitely the country with the highest amount of stocks that share profits with shareholders fairly. Believe me; I've seen thousands of companies all around the world where investors get robbed by management teams, lead investors or even the government.

My investment focus is on dividend growth stocks but over the recent months and years, we all have seen a significant increase in price multiples. Most of the best long-term dividend growers are valuated with a P/E of 20 or more. If you pay such high ratios, you will definitely not get a good inflation and risk-adjusted return over the long-run if you invest in a slow growing business.

Today, I try to find additional dividend stocks that are near to achieve a consecutive dividend growth history of at least five years.

Around 150 stocks are available with 4 years of dividend growth. With the next hike they could become a real Dividend Challenger. My hope is that some of them are cheaper than the older and well-established stocks.

You can find attached a list of all large capitalized stocks with a low forward price to earnings ratio of less than 15. Only 19 companies fulfilled these criteria of which nearly all (17 shares) are recommended to buy.
