You cannot make a greater return with stocks
that have a P/E ratio of 22 and grows only at 5 percent. You need real bargains
to make big profit with your asset.
This problem can be solved when you look into
the dividend potentials. Those stocks haven’t yet reached a longer dividend
payment history but they can become a great Dividend Champion within the next
years. The price ratios are also lower for some companies and you have a better
choice to find good investments because out there are around 160 stocks with
five or more years of consecutive dividend payments and 207 with a payment
between 10 to 25 years.
Today I like to screen the third class of
dividend growth stocks by the safest alternatives. The 20 safest dividend growth stocks have a beta ratio between 0.18 and 0.55. All three top picks come from the
oil & gas pipeline industry, a branch with very stable sales and future growth
perspectives due to the shale gas boom in the United States.
From the 20 safest Dividend Challengers have nine
a current buy or better rating.
