4 Best Consumer Dividend Growth Stocks

Dividend growth investors have different approaches to stock picking, but I think there are some important factors that every investor looks at. As far as I am concerned, I think a good dividend growth pick has to show some simple characteristics.

The first is a stable and solid business with low volatility in top line and margins. The second factor is a low payout ratio and a commitment to increase dividends, typically shown by at least 5-10 consecutive years of dividend raises. 

The third factor is a competitive advantage that should guarantee future stability for the company’s business. It’s obvious that an analysis based on these simple factors must be completed by an accurate analysis of the company’s financial condition and every position should be started only if valuation gives the prospects of decent returns.

On the basis of these initial factors, I am going to list and briefly discuss four dividend growth stocks in consumer-related industries that I think are worthy of consideration. All these companies have a stable business, a healthy balance sheet, some competitive advantages that help their business and trade at good or acceptable valuations.

28 Latest Dividend Growth Stocks Compiled In One List

When you purchase individual stocks, risk is inherent. Sometimes bad things happen to good stocks. Eventually, every investor will hold a stock that falls out of favor and endures a double-digit decline. Understanding this from the onset makes it easier to deal with. To minimize the risk of significant declines, your core portfolio should focus on blue-chip dividend growth stocks.

Listed below are companies that have recently elected to raise their payout and yield by increasing their cash dividends to shareholders. In total, there were 28 companies with higher dividend payments.

Each month, I’ll be sharing with you, for free, the top dividend growth stocks for the US market. You can find them in the list below:

10 Really Cheap Dividend Stocks To Look For

The only thing that is better than buying the stock of a great company is buying a stock of a great company at a low price.

While there aren't a whole lot of companies out there selling at decent discounted prices these days -- the market is hitting all-time highs, after all -- there's still a decent handful of stocks that investors should consider if they want to buy a company on the cheap.

After all, picks trading that low often have gone through hard times. And while you can sometimes catch a falling knife and make a bundle on a swing trade, cheap dividend stocks are inherently long-term investments.

I mean, what’s the point of buying an income investment only to trade out of it before the ex-dividend date?

As the old saying goes, price is what you pay but value is what you get. So instead, investors should look at valuation metrics and payout ratios to determine which are the best cheap dividend stocks to buy now.

So we run a stock screener to find stocks currently trading for a 'cheap' price. There came a lot results but we like to share the best in our view with you.

9 Best Dividend Stocks For Income Investors To Bet On 2017

With interest rates expected to rise next year, many investors may be asking what will be the best dividend stocks in 2017. 

The 10 best dividend stocks of 2017 will be large-cap stocks with a long history of providing investors with capital appreciation and a high-yield dividend that gets raised annually.

It may sound boring, but these kinds of stocks tend to outperform the broader market regardless of the interest-rate environment.

You may be tempted to look for a smaller company providing a much higher dividend yield, but you need to remember there is a risk/reward trade-off with dividends. 

The higher the dividend, the greater the risk. Not only do you risk losing capital if the stock price plunges during a correction, but if the company doesn’t have a lot of money, the company could cut its dividend yield, which could also kill the share price.

One way to determine whether or not the company will be able to maintain and raise its annual dividend yield is to look at its free cash flow. This is the amount of money left over after capital expenditures.

Below is a selection of 9 stocks for dividend growth investors to watch in 2017. These stocks should do well, even when the Federal Reserve starts to raise rates.

Here are 9 dividend-paying stocks....

19 Dividend Growth Stocks With Potential To Double Payouts

Dividend stocks can be the foundation of a great retirement portfolio. Not only do the payments put money in your pocket, which can help hedge against any dips in the stock market, they're usually a sign of a financially sound company.

Dividends also give investors a painless opportunity to reinvest in a stock, thus compounding gains over time. 

 However, not all income stocks live up to their full potential. They give only a small part of their cash potential back to shareholder. This might have different reasons like growth opportunities, debt payback and many more.

Today I like to introduce a few dividend growth stocks with very low dividend payout ratios, low price multiples and small debt burden as well. Each of the stock has a potential to grow earnings for the next years.

Attached you will find 19 of stocks with payout ratios currently below 30% that could potentially double their dividends.

7 Undervalued Dividend Growth Stocks To Consider

Since the beginning of the year, there is an awkward feeling on the stock market. Earnings seasons has shown companies are having a hard time to propel their revenues higher.

Some are hit by currency headwinds while others are dealing with mediocre global economic growth. Considering the rise of the stock market since 2009 and the fact that earnings are now slowing down, it has become harder to find undervalued companies.

Since interest rates remained close to their all time record lows, many investors moved a part of their money towards equities, especially dividend paying stocks.

This didn't help push stock prices higher. If you have money on the sidelines and you are looking for your next buy, I'm pretty sure your buy list is very short.

In order to help you out, I've highlighted 7 companies that are not only looking undervalued but also pay growing dividends to help you wait while the stock market is going sideways.

Do You Think Apple Is Big? This Company Is 11 Times Bigger Than The iPhone Maker!

The Most Popular Buyback Champions Of The Year Compiled In 3 Charts

Stock Buybacks are essential for financial engineering. If a company has strong cash flows but only low abilities to grow while their business operates with strong competitor entry barriers, it makes definitely sense to create shareholder value by buying back own shares.

Paying out the whole net income of the company is also a good option but second choice if you compare the tax payments from both sides, the shareholder and corporate.

Today I would like to show you the most important buyback stocks. Apple is definitely the king of them. The smartphone maker bought back own stocks in an amount of nearly USD 40 billion over the past year.

7 Big Dividend Stocks To Invest During Holiday Season

While many are getting ready for an end-of-year spending bonanza, putting together shopping lists and wish lists and making travel plans, investors are on the lookout for moneymaking opportunities. With the holiday season nigh and a holiday-fueled boost of spending perhaps headed their way.

I call this seasonally investing. Black Friday, Christmas, summer...each event has its own kings to observe.

Not surprisingly, retail stocks can be big performers during the Christmas season. According to Forbes, stocks that perform well during the holiday season range from big box retailers like Target and Wal-Mart to specialized retailers like Coach.

Additionally, with the prevalence of online shopping and convenience of e-commerce options, air, freight and ground shipping surge during the holidays, and can provide solid returns for investors who already own those stocks. UPS or Fedex, the Warren Buffet investment target, are two well knows companies from this field.

Companies such as American Express and PayPal are also big benefiters during the holiday season. While credit cards are a common method of payment at retail establishments, many shoppers opt for PayPal for e-commerce transactions. 

Credit card use tends to increase as the economy improves, because Americans begin to feel more comfortable with debt. If you previously purchased this type of stock at a lower rate, you may see some healthy returns due to holiday performance.

Attached are seven companies worth considering right now. They have a great dividend yield, solid till high earnings growth forecasts and a moderate forward P/E, which is one of the most important criteria. You can only pay high multiples when a company has a high change of structural growth.

Here are the 7 dividend plays to watch...

13 Stocks With Dividend Growth In The Past Week

13 companies raised their dividends during the recent week. Dividend is so important for investors who like to grow their investments.

21 Stock Ideas To Benefit From Weak Oil Prices

The oil price is in free fall and lost half of its value within the recent month. I love it when something changes in such a short period because often it could be a good sign for investors to find new investment targets.

The oil and gas or energy sector is very complicated. There are working many companies in this field and some of them suffering deeply under low oil prices. 

The bad news is that many stocks from the sector did not fall in the same amount as oil prices. One of the main reasons could be that market actors anticipate a mid or long-term oil price forecast of USD 100. That's enough for most of the industry leaders to make money and solid returns.

Not only basic material dividend stocks like Exxon or Chevron are the top picks. 

Indirect, companies with an energy intensive business model like industrial stocks, retailers, auto or restaurant stocks could get a short-term boost.

However, Today I like to share some investment ideas around the energy sector, who are not cheap now but could become an interesting investment.

Indirect oil related investment ideas

6 Dividend Growth Stocks With A Big Footprint And Inimitable Business

Dividend investing is a large field for investors who seek for a return. People with focus on passive and regular income are the main target group for this topic.

In my view there are too many speculators on the market who don't understand the philosophy of dividend growth investing.

They like to make money fast with high momentum stocks or they like to make a capital gain by trading shares within a day or a week.

Those strategies could work but it’s in my view like a lottery because no one has a crystal ball to see how the stock prices develop in the next days. It's like gambling of which I have no plan how it works.

These are 3 big myth of dividend investing who let investors stay away from the dividend investing space:

1. Only high dividends are good dividends

2. Dividends don't matter because of their low yields

3. Dividends are not stable

Those thoughts could sometimes be right but often it is not true.

I'm a long-term investor and hope you are too. I do look at fundamentals and at the business strength and brand awareness of the company as well.

I like to invest in long-term growing stocks with a big and strong footprint in several industries. That's one of my key philosophies which helped me to avoid big risks. Below are six big names with such a big footprint.

All of the stocks have a long-term growth track record and they are classified as Dividend Aristocrats or Champions.
