6 Top Growth Heros With Potential To Lift Future Dividends

Only a growing dividend is a good dividend. That was one of my major rules when I started my dividend growth investing career. Since then, I quadrupled my net worth, only via dividend stock trading. That's a great feeling to see that it really works, but we must also consider that the markets are irrational valuated.

Today, I would like to share a new screen about dividend stocks that have beaten the market by sales and earnings growth numbers in the past. 


Not enough, they also have low debt, dividend payout ratios. Both are two major criteria to evaluate future dividend growth. These are the criteria in detail:

- Market cap is greater than USD 100 million
- Dividend yield is greater than 2%
- The payout ratio is less than 100%
- Total debt to equity is less than 1.00
- Average annual earnings growth for the past five years is greater than 25%
- Average annual sales growth for the past five years is greater than 10%

Six companies fulfilled the above mentioned criteria of which four have a current buy or better rating.

Ex-Dividend Stocks: Best Dividend Paying Shares On August 07, 2013

The best yielding and biggest ex-dividend stocks researched by ”long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. Dividend Investors should have a quiet overview of stocks with upcoming ex dividend dates.

The ex dividend date is the final date on which the new stock buyer couldn’t receive the next dividend. If you like to receive the dividend, you need to buy the stock before the ex dividend date. I made a little screen of the best yielding stocks with a higher capitalization that have their ex date on the next trading day.

A full list of all stocks with payment dates can be found here: Ex-Dividend Stocks August 07, 2013. In total, 46 stocks go ex dividend - of which 11 yield more than 3 percent. The average yield amounts to 2.49%.

20 Basic Material Dividend Stocks With Highest Float Short Ratio

Raw Material dividend stocks with highest float short ratios originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". Basic Material stocks were the worst performing stock category within the recent six month. The sector had a performance of -0.7 percent while the S&P 500 increased 15.27 percent.

The fear of an economic slowdown mainly caused by China’s slowing growth is the main reason behind.

Investors can benefit from a falling stock price via short selling. Today I like to look at the basic material dividend stocks with the highest float short ratio. I excluded all companies with a market capitalization below USD 2 billion.

The top 20 results have a float short ratio between 6 percent and 32.62 percent. Eight of the results still have a current buy or better rating.
