Someone recently asked me to "let them know what my next investment was going to be, so they could get in at the price I pay." I usually keep a running list of dividend stocks that I want to buy, along with target prices, but I hadn't updated the list in a while. So I decided to do a little research and see what sort of compelling buys I could find in today's environment.
I used the following screening filters to give me a starting list of dividend growth stocks that I might want to consider:
Yield between 4% and 8%
1-year dividend growth rate at least 10%
Recent average dividend growth rate at least 8%
Exclude All MLPs
These were the results...

16 High-Yield Dividend Growth Stocks
More often than not, dividend stocks are what form the foundation of any great retirement portfolio. Not only have dividend stocks handily outperformed non-dividend-paying stocks over the long run, but they also offer a number of other advantages that income investors are bound to like.
To begin with, dividend-paying companies often have time-tested business models. A business is unlikely to pay a recurring dividend to investors if its management team didn't believe profits would grow in the future. Thus, dividend stocks are often a beacon of profitability and stability that attract income seekers.
Dividend stocks also help to hedge against inevitable stock market corrections -- there have been 35 stock market corrections of at least 10% since 1950 in the S&P 500 -- and payouts can be reinvested back into more shares of stock via a Dividend Reinvestment Plan, or DRIP. Purchasing more shares of dividend-paying stock with your payout in a repeating cycle can help your nest egg quickly compound in value over time.
Unfortunately, dividend stocks can also harbor a dark side. Income seekers would like the highest dividend yield possible, but they also have to ensure that a payout is sustainable. Dividend yields are a function of a stock's price, meaning a plunging stock price can dramatically lift dividend yields, making them seem attractive, at least on the surface. But, as we know, a plunging stock price could signify a business model that's in trouble. Thus, high-yield dividends, or those with yields of 4% or higher, should be heavily scrutinized by investors.
The yields on dividend stocks rise when their share prices become depressed. That’s an opportunity to chase extra yield. Besides, the best dividend-paying stocks do their most good when they are held for long periods of time. Ideally, the holding period includes many dividend hikes and market cycles.
In the beginning of this New Year, many investors review their portfolios. We all hope for a good year on the market and, most importantly, steady dividend growth increase among our portfolio. I selected some high yielding long term dividend growth stocks I think will perform well in 2017 and will increase their dividend payouts.

15 REITs With FFO Yields Over Dividend Yield
If you are thinking about a REIT purchase, you need to consider the company’s ability to maintain or raise its dividend, because a dividend cut could hurt the stock price terribly, and income is your main objective.
There are 92 REITs in the S&P 1500 Composite Index and some of them still have room to grow dividend payments. Here are the 15 with the highest dividend yields that also have “headroom” to raise dividends:
12 Stocks That Might Get A Boost Indirectly From Low Energy Prices
Crude oil’s crash may have roiled
stocks to start 2016, but cheap fuel is actually a great thing for the average
American. Consumer confidence is heading higher, thanks to low gas prices and a
continually improving job market.
In general, it
should be good the US economy to have a low oil price. The states are net
import of oil. The cheaper the oil price, the cheaper the energy bill of the
USA.
A negative impact
is expected from the oil and gas industry, especially from own energy companies
like Chevron, Exxon Mobil. A hard environment has share fracker and oil
equipment firms.
Also headwinds
faced by banks with a big loan portfolio related to the energy sector.
Today I would like
to introduce some stocks that might get some backwinds from the low oil price.
It's not only the consumer. Many energy consumption stocks like manufacturer,
travel stocks, airlines could also improve margins due to lower energy costs.
Here are 12 higher yielding stocks that are directly benefiting from more leisure travel. They’re all
on sale at the moment, too.
