- Add back non-cash expenses. (Such as depreciation and amortization) 
- Adjust for gains and losses on sales on assets.

The problem is often the inventory. If sales run flat and inventory grows, there could be a massive risk for investors.

50 Top Stocks With The Highest Dividend Growth In February 2013

Shares with highest dividend growth researched by Dividend Yield – Stock, Capital, Investment. Dividend growth is wonderful. It helps you to grow your own wealth and build up a passive income without hard work.

Growth is a must have for every investor who wants to increase their net worth. You also need growth in order to boost your passive income for an earlier retirement especially when you have not a high paid job or rich parents. This is how it works: If you purchase a stock today with 3 percent yield, growth can lift up your yield on cost to 30 percent in 20 years.

Today I like to show you the 50 fastest dividend growth stocks and funds from the last 30 days. There are some pretty good stocks with very good growth rates which indicate a strong business health. The average dividend growth of the 50 best stocks amounts to 72.68 percent. The average yield is still at 3.61 percent.

100 Stocks At All-Time-Highs | 58 Dividend Stocks At New Highs

People love it to watch stocks that are going up and never stop to rise. In my blog “long-term-investments.blogspot.com” I present on a regular basis some interesting stocks at new 52-Week Highs or even better, stocks at All-Time Highs. Recently, 100 companies realized price marks they have never seen before. 58 of them pay dividends.

All-Time Highs are very good signals showing the strong investor confidence and they are indicating a well-running business as well.

If I look the huge number of stocks at All-Time Highs I can’t believe that it is really true. Remember the world economy is still in a recession and growth is weaker than predicted but the financial markets do not care about it. Stocks rally and we are close to All-Time Highs in some of the world’s most important indices. The main question for me is: Is this rally sustainable and correct or do you believe that this is a small bubble which becomes bigger and bigger. Let me know and we will discuss it in the comment area.

Below is a small list of the 20 most recommended dividend stocks which realized a new All-Time High within the recent trading days. Two high-yields are part of the results.

11 Dividend Challengers With Highest Dividend Payout Potential

Dividend Challengers With Significant Payout Potential Researched By Dividend Yield - Stock, Capital, Investment. Dividend Challengers are stocks with a history of consecutive dividend hikes of more than 5 years but less than 10. Exactly 195 companies raised dividends over such a long history but the potential for additional increases is still high. I made a screen of the best yielding Dividend Challengers with the highest dividend payout potential. First, I selected all stocks with a debt to equity ratio of less than 0.5 and a current payout ratio below 20 percent. Second, the company needs to grow in earnings over the mid-term. Because of this, I decided to screen all stocks with 5-year earnings per share growth of at least 10 percent. Eleven companies remained of which nine are currently recommended to buy.
