9 High-Yielding Dividend Stocks With A Big Free Cash Flow

Thanks to weak global economics and the much hyped rate hike by the Federal Reserve, it doesn’t appear as though the broader market are poised to resume their nascent rise anytime soon.

That doesn’t mean investors should shun stocks. It means investors need to be more discriminating in what they add to their portfolio.

If you want to follow in the footsteps of legendary investors like Warren Buffett, Peter Lynch, and John Neff, then keep your eye out for high dividend-yielding stocks with lots of free cash flow, and strong fundamentals.

Free cash flow is the amount of “free cash,” or money left over after it pays for operations and necessary capital expenditures.

The more money a company has in the bank, the greater the chances are it can sustain or increase its high dividend yield, buy back shares, expand its business, or pay down debt. And ultimately, increase shareholder value.

One of the most common ways to calculate the free cash flow yield is to take the amount of free cash flow the company generates per share and divide it by the share price. Another popular way (and the equation I am using) is to divide the company’s free cash flow by the market cap. The higher the ratio, the more attractive the investment.

Below are 5 top stocks with high dividends and a big free cash flow that gives potential to pay high dividends in crisis times and hike them too.

These are the results....
