Every investor is looking for the
perfect stock. A company with an impressive past performance and track record
as well. When the financials looking good and valuation ratios looking
attractive, that’s mostly the time to catch the investment.
The truth is that
it is not the normal case to find the perfect stock that could promise you a
solid and stable return with a high probability.
In the past, I've
focused many of the articles on perfect dividend growth stocks that might look
attractive. Today I like to show you some stocks that were perfect Dividend
Champions, Contenders or Challengers but then they must cut dividends or run
them flat due to a specific reason.
My main criteria
are a low forward P/E, a debt-to-equity under 1 and a moderate earnings growth
of 5% yearly. Attached you can find the 20 top yielding results.
