3 Unbelievable Dividend Champions With Zero Debt And Promising Payout Growth

Investors should be careful while investing in stocks under different sectors. You might be tempted to invest in stocks that pay out high dividends, but what you also need to check is whether these companies have any debts or not.

If a company has huge debts, you must strictly stay away from it, however high its dividends are. Such companies cannot be trusted upon to pay out high dividends in the future as the cash flow that they generate would be used for settling debts.

A company that pays out a reasonable rate of dividend and has very little debts is still a better choice. However the best choice would be a company with absolutely no debt at all. Are there any companies like these? If yes, which ones are best in terms of growth?

Today I show you the fastest growing Dividend Champions with zero debt. Those stocks have a double-digit earnings growth forecast for the next five years as well as a low debt to equity ratio of less than 0.1.

Here are the results...

10 Sustainable Dividend Growth Stocks With High Yields And Low Payouts

If you're looking for income in retirement, a classic source of that are dividend payments.

Dividend income may not guaranteed but they can easily deliver a sustainable income source. And while not guaranteed, many dividend payouts are exceedingly reliable.

Even better, dividends from healthy, growing companies tend to be increased over time, while the stock price should grow in tandem.

For safe and steady dividend income, seek out companies that: Pay reasonably generous dividends, such as 2.5% or more.

By the way, you may also like my article about the 20 safest Dividend Champions. Always good to know what stocks have the lowest beta ratio.

19 High-Yielding Dividend Growth Stocks For High Income Seeking Investors

Each income orientated investor need a high cash source in order to satisfy his needs of income. Major sources on the capital market are dividends. Those are payments by the corporate to its shareholders.

Dividends should be reliable and grow. That's a major reason why dividend growth has an essential meaning for investors. A long history of rising dividends and sustainable payments increases the trust relationship to the owners of the company.

19 stocks with yields above the High-Yield mark 5 percent fulfilled my criteria of which three have a low forward P/E.

These are my 4 favorites in detail...

Dividend Champions With Over 15% Earnings Growth

Some people say that growth can justify each price. That might be truth but means also that most the risk is assigned to the investor.

When Twitter and Facebook have valuation multiples of over 50x of the expected earnings, you have to fear of downside when the growth does not come.

I love investing on classical fundamentals like P/E, CAPEX, Free Cash-Flow, net debt ratios and business predictability.

It's only a small idea of my criteria I do check when I discover a company. Let me mention one thing: There is no perfect stock that fulfills all of the essential criteria.

Today I like to show you some of the fastet growing stocks within the Dividend Champions League. Those stocks have risen dividends over more than 25 consecutive years and forecast EPS growth of more than 15%.

Many smaller capitalized stocks are on the attached list. It's easily to understand that smaller companies can growth faster because of their size in relation to the market potential but when you look at Apple you also may understand that it's only a question of definition. Each company, whoever great it may be, should grow at a high rate.

13 Cheap S&P 500 Dividend Achievers

Today I like to introduce some dividend growth stocks with the cheapest valuation on the S&P 500. Those stocks have a forward P/E of less than 15.

Buying cheap stocks doesn't mean that you could make a quick return. Mostly the cheapness has reasons which you need to discover. 

For the time being, there are only 26 solid stocks but many have a huge debt burden to wear. If we exclude those stocks by implementing a debt-to-equity limit of 0.5, the results shrink to 13 companies. The list is attached. 

It's hard to find good growing stocks especially when the Fed offers money for free. But what should we do elsewhere? Compared to fixed income assets, equities are quiet cheap and they offer an inflation hedge.

Are you investing money into stocks too? Please share your thoughts related to my ideas here on my blog. Thank you so much.

12 Of The Safest Dividend Aristocrats

Happy New Year! It was a fantastic year 2014 and I hope you've also generated a good performance.

I hope that this year can also produce a solid for my portfolio depite the fact that many analysts are scared about the current market valuation.


I think that we must own stocks but we need to keep a larger amount of cash in order to be prepared for a potential market correction. If dividend yields go up, it's good for us because we can earn more money by holding stocks and receiving dividends, all with a smaller amount of money.


What to do with price fluctuations?


One of my most important lessons on the stock market was - how do I become more diversified and secure?

The answer was very simple: Don't put all your money into one basket; don't put all your money into one asset. Keep diversified over industries, sectors and try to look for higher capitalized stocks who are acting within several countries.

Those are one of my keystones when I talk about investment security. For sure, it's no guarantee to avoid losses but I can sleep much better and can take a bigger part of the capital market.

Today I like to show you some new stocks with focus on security. These are my main criteria:

- Dividend yields over 2%
- Beta below 0.5
- Dividend Payout Ratios under 60%
- Market Caps are over $10 billion

My screen produced a few interesting results of which three have a very long history with their dividends, going back more than 40 years (close to Dividend Kings). I like to highlight some oft them now.

9 Most Undervalued Dividend Stocks On The Market

Most investors look for undervalued stocks. They like to buy below the intrinsic value, wait and sell when the market carries the stock far above core price.

Dividend stocks often fall off the radars of investors looking for total returns but dividend paying stocks greatly outperformed non-dividend paying stocks from the period from 1972 through 2013. 

Sure, Dividend Stocks are not a one-way ticket for success. There are also many companies that have underperformed the market in recent years, remember Avon Products.

Dividend paying stocks have been a better investment than non-dividend paying stocks over the past 40 years. Investing in those stocks is not the only strategy that has a long history of outperformance.

Below are 10 stock ideas for investors who look for undervalued stocks with growth perspectives and dividends.

5 Dividend Champions With Higher Dividends In 3 Months

No one has a crystal-ball but when we look forward in the dividend growth space we have a great possibility to find stocks that may raise dividends in the near future in order to keep their status.

Today I like to introduce some Dividend Champions that need to hike dividends over the next three month. They did grow dividend over more than 25 years, why stopping now?

In total, 13 stocks must grow dividends of which two are High-Yields. For sure most of the 13 stocks have grown their dividends by a low rate of less than 10 percent annually. The fastest Champ was Archer-Daniels-Midland with a 5-Year dividend growth rate of 7.9 percent.

Small dividend hikes are not bad. Remember, the inflation is also low and a 3 percent dividend hike could hedge your investment.

The best performing stock from the list was the financial services company McGraw Hill. Since 2010, the company went up 150 percent while the worst performer, AT&T realized only a gain of around 18 percent.

How To Build A Diversified Dividend Growth Portfolio?

Diversification is a key element in the investing space. Each investor should have a well diversified portfolio in order to eliminate the big risks.

We are no Warren Buffett who met the CEO's and Chairman’s of a company in a private talk and cannot evaluate risks in a deeper detail. What we make is desk research and those investors need to be diversified. 

Attached are 12 great Dividend Aristocrats from different sectors which you can use to build a broader diversification for your own portfolio.

Dividend Aristocrats don't just sound royal, they performed like kings in the past. Over the last decade, an index of the 54 Dividend Aristocrats stocks has returned 10.91% a year, versus just 8.06% a year for the S&P 50.

Remember, a past performance is for sure no guarantee for a solid future return. As a group, the 10 stocks below have an average dividend yield of 2.8% and an average P/E ratio of 18.5. 

These are the results with a 3+ percent annual dividend yield...

20 Of The Safest Dividend Champions

20 Of The Safest Dividend Champions originally appeard on long-term-investments. More and more people talk about an overvaluation of the market. Sure P/E ratios skyrocket within the past five years but earnings did also improve.

I personally look for low beta stocks. Those have a lower correlation to the overall market and should fall less. Below are 20 of the safest Dividend Champions by beta ratio.

Yields Of The Dividend Aristocrats | 12 Cheapest Stock Of The Index

Today I've attached a list of the yields from the Dividend Aristocrats for you. You can also find the payout ratios in this table. It's very informative in my view and I use this overview too in order to get a feeling about the pricing of the market.

Dividend Aristocrats are stocks that have increased dividend payments over a period of 25 consecutive years without a break. That's a top value and around 100+companies could achieve this goal.

Standard & Poor's increases the restrictions and cut the list to 42 members. Well not all stocks are good from the list but you can find there some value player. Just take a look!
Only 12 companies yield over 3 percent. Not bad for a low interest environment. The bond market offers 1.56 percent and has also default risks.

The top yielding stocks also slow grower full of debt. Which stock do you like or own from the list? Let me know your thoughts and write a comment. Thank you.



These are my main thoughts to the Dividend Aristocrats list:

- When we look at the highest yielding stocks with yields over 3 percent, we see that only 3 companies have a low forward P/E.

- Stocks with a lower yield are much cheaper. 9 companies with yields less than 2 percent have a forward P/E under 15.

- Low yielding stocks pay out less of it's annual earnings and might be reinvest more money into growth.

These 8 Dividend Stocks Bubbling Cash Like Lava Gold Mines (Part II)

If you like to make money on the stock market like me, you need a clear vision and strategy about how to make money. 

Are you an income investor who likes to receive dividends or are you a short-term orientated trader with focus on quick profits?

I'm focused on long-term growth with growing income. In my view, only over a long period of time, stocks can double and develop their full asset potential.

I've recently published a small article about stocks with high free cash flows, companies that earn so much money from its operations and they have no need or desire to invest this money. 

I love those companies but the source of income should also be reliable. Only cash that comes over years and decades will deliver a good return for you.

In my first article about Cash Cows that produce money like milk, I've compiled some of the top yielding stocks with low reinvestment rates. 

Most of the top yielding stocks come from the technology sector and they also plan to buyback a significant amount of own shares which is also very good for the stock price.

Today I like to go forward and introduce the rest of my research results. They have in average a smaller yield but should be also attractive. A big part of the results come from the financial sector. Asset Managers and Stock Exchange Operators are top.

Flood of money should come into your pocket

These 6 Dividend Stocks Start To Take-Off

After I've published a few articles about safe dividend stocks and stocks with high cash and low debt ratios, I come back to growth.

Growth is good because it grows the value of your assets too. I ever told that only a growing stock is good but you can only make money with growth stocks if you pay reasonable prices for them.

The market is highly valuated, that's news from the recent quarters and more than true. With P/E multiples above 20, you need high growth to justify this values.

Today, I've created a screen for you that are based on momentum growth. I've discovered stocks with double digit earnings and sales growth.

These are my main criteria:


- Market Cap over $10 billion

- Positive Dividend Yield
- Debt-To-Equity Ratio under 0.5
- 5Y Forecasted Earnings Growth over 5%
- Quarter over Quarter Sales Growth over 10%
- Quarter over Quarter Earnings Growth over 10%
- Only US Home Base

Nineteen stocks fulfilled these criteria of which none yield over 2.5 percent in dividend. That's not much but for growth you can waive a small part of your yield.

Green money should come into your portfolio

These 7 Dividend Cash Cows Produce Money Like Milk (Part I)

Investing is great. You can spend money on stocks and if your bet goes wild you will make a lot of money. That's a great dream for all of us and I can tell you that it's possible to become an investment Pro.

I'm a guy who looks steadily at stocks and try to find attractive investment stories and cheap stocks in order to make a good return.

I'm not short term focused; plan to hold most of my stocks over years and decades. Due to my long investment horizon, I need good companies that grow over time their business, pay me good dividends, and grow dividends as well.

But the most important question is that the corporate can grow without taking new investors on board. Those actions will grow outstanding shares in general and bring pressure on earnings per share growth.

I look for companies have generated high free cash flows, companies with a business model that don't need much money to keep their operational business alive.

I've tried to find some new ideas with an old screener who has a quick option; it’s called the reinvestment rate. I don't know how they calculate this ratio but when I sort the list of large with high margins by this ratio, companies with low investment spending on their operational cash flow come first.

Big Money Roll In Your Pocket

I talk about companies with a high scalable business, stocks with the lowest need of capital expenditures. First you might think about Facebook or all the great tobacco companies. For sure those shares generate big free cash flows.

But there are much more companies, I talk about technology stocks and money platforms. The key is here the platform business. Each new customer doesn't cause new costs and bring free cash into the corporate. That's a great idea of making money.

The only item to care about is market entry barriers. Can competitors easily enter and push down margins? If yes, keep your fingers away of buy only at low multiples.

Below are seven detailed stocks. I will follow up with 8 additional stocks. That's only a selection; there are much more companies available. Some of them pay no dividends other a low one but dividend is not the key.
