10 Cheap Dividend Growth Stocks Below $20 Price

Contrary to popular belief, not all dividend stocks are priced at double- and triple-digit levels. 

Some of them are downright cheap stocks, with prices below $20 per share, allowing income-seeking investors to own a round lot of them for not a lot of money.

Better still, while theoretically it shouldn’t matter, in reality, cheap stocks don’t face the eventual psychological hurdle of being valued at eye-popping prices that even cause veteran investors to balk.

With that in mind, here’s a closer look at nine attractive but cheap dividend stocks — each priced at less than $20 per share — that also offer nice to downright outstanding yields.

Each member of the attached stock list has grown dividends over more than 5 consecutive years while the market exceed 2 billion. More important is the valuation. The forward P/E is also under 15.

Only 10 stocks have a price tag below USD 20 per share.

These are the results...

53 Stocks With Over 1000% Return In 7 Years

We are talking a lot about capital return secured by dividends. Growth is an essential element to create wealth. 

Dividends give you a regual income and hedge you against capital losses. They are no wealth driver in general.

Today I would like to present a couple of stocks that tenfold over the past six years. Each of the companies generated a stock return over 1000% since 2009.

There are not many companies on the list, only 53. Most of them are high growth names like Starbucks, Netflix, Priceline or Expedia. 

The financial crisis also gave investors the great opportunity to buy high-quality businesses for a really cheap price. Especially high leveraged stocks with big debt burden or companies with cyclic products were traded at deep discounts.

Here is a table of percentage moves from the March 9, 2009 stock market bottom for 54 stocks with returns over 1,000% listed in alphabetical order.

These are the results...

16 Oversold Dividend Stocks Are Now Cheap Enough To Buy Now

As the markets reached recently fresh new highs, income investors are on the lookout for stocks with solid dividend yields that have strong fundamentals and are oversold due to the year's volatility. 

It's hard to find cheaply priced stocks in such a hot priced environment.

Looking at the stocks' technical charts can help determine whether the fundamentals can be further supported. 

Not surprisingly, this year's market volatility has wreaked havoc on many strong dividend stocks. 

Today we've screened the market by cheap stocks (forward P/E under 15) with an oversold definition by RSI 40.

We also excluded all stocks with a market capitalization over 2 billion. In addition, the ROA is positive and the debt-to equity under 1.

16 stocks are meeting the above mentioned criteria of which 2 a High-Yields.

These are the results in detail...
