Best Dividend Paying Ex-Dividend Shares On December 11, 2012

The Best Yielding And Biggest Ex-Dividend Stocks Researched By ”long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. Dividend Investors should have a quiet overview of stocks with upcoming ex dividend dates. The ex dividend date is the final date on which the new stock buyer couldn’t receive the next dividend. If you like to receive the dividend, you need to buy the stock before the ex dividend date. I made a little screen of the best yielding stocks with a higher capitalization that have their ex date on the next trading day.

In total, 14 stocks and preferred shares go ex dividend - of which 8 yield more than 3 percent. The average yield amounts to 3.17%.

The Most Profitable Utility Dividend Stocks

Utility Dividend Stocks With High Return On Investments And Big Operating Margins Researched By Dividend Yield - Stock, Capital, Investment. Utilities are stable dividend payer but they only generate slow growth for investors and they are very capital intensive. Nevertheless, people can make money with utility stocks.

I screened the utility sector by the most profitable stocks (stocks with an operating margin and return on investment over 5 percent) with a dividend yield over 4 percent. Exactly nine companies fulfilled these criteria. Most of the results come from the gas utility industry. Five stocks have a buy or strong buy rating.
