20 Top Yielding Electic Utilites With Sustainable Dividend Payouts For Growth

Well-managed electric utilities are excellent candidates for a dividend reinvestment portfolio. Typically, electric utilities generate lots of excess cash and pay it out as dividends to shareholders.

But not all utilities are equal. Some pay high amounts of their net income to shareholders in form of dividends, other only a small part. Be very wary of stocks with high dividend yields and high payout ratios. They are not sustainable and increase the debt level of the company over the long-term.

I'm looking for those utilities with low dividend payouts in order to get sustainable dividend payments over years that might grow, year over year for decades.

Attached you can find a detailed list of 20 electric utilities that might give investors a small hedge due to a solid dividend growth history and sustainable dividend payouts.

These are the 4 top yielding results in detail...

72 Top Dividend Stocks With Ex-Dividend Date In September 2013

Monthly high yielding shares researched by “long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. We are coming close to the end of August and I would like to look forward to find good stock ideas for the next month. 

I try to screen some interesting stocks that go ex-dividend within the next month.

I also publish articles each day on my site about the biggest ex-dividend shares of the next trading day. Let me say one thing. There is no margin trade idea behind because on the ex date, the stock will be traded ex-dividend and for a return of 0.5 percent it’s not attractive to hunt for a margin trade because the daily fluctuations are much higher.

But it makes sense to look at these lists because you get a quick overview about the stocks with a possible rising trading volume and if you are a long-term dividend investor, you get a quick cash return and don’t need to wait for the next dividend period.

However, every month, I create a small list about interesting high yielding stocks with ex-dividend date for the next month. I think it could bring you some values to see what companies pay you cash next month with an attractive equity story.

As result, I found 72 stocks with an average dividend yield of 7.89 percent. Ten stocks have a double-digit yield and 28 a high yield below 10 percent but over 5 percent. 32 stocks from the results have a buy or better recommendation.

High Yields From The S&P 500 And Which Are Highly Recommended

High Yields from the S&P 500 and the best buy ratings originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". It’s good to have stocks with dividends. Dividends give you a passive income and improve your quality of life. Some of you don’t have enough money to live off dividends and they try to close the gap by choosing only High-Yields.

The higher the yield of a stock, the less capital you need for an acceptable return. But High-Yields often have the problem that they are not sustainable, especially when the market capitalization is low and the debt high.

We’ve seen this problem with Pitney Bowes, a very popular Dividend Aristocrat who yielded for months over 10 percent until they decided to reduce the dividend distributions by a half. For sure, they still pay a good dividend but your passive income is now significant lower.

Today I like to show you the highest yielding stocks from the S&P 500 with their current ratings. Only 13 companies survived the strong market gain since the beginning of the year. Last year, the number of High-Yields within the popular index was over 20!

Below the top results are many telecom service companies as well as electric utilities. Five of the results have a current buy or better rating.

8 Utility Dividend Stocks With The Highest Float Short Ratio

Most sold short utility dividend stocks originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". Today I like to look at the most shorted dividend stocks from the utility sector. I observed only stocks with a market capitalization over USD 300 million and a float short ratio over 5 percent.

Only eight companies have a capital stake with more than 5 percent of short sellers. Utilities are very unpopular in terms of borrowing shares and selling them with hope to cause a stock crash.

I often told that one of the characteristics of a utility stock is the stability. But the price you pay is the low growth and high debt. The capital intensive business model doesn’t allow it to expand the balance sheet without capital increases.
