11 Cheap High Beta Consumer Goods Dividend Stocks

Cheap high beta dividend stocks from the consumer goods sector originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. You might know that I really love stocks from the consumer goods sector. They offer a very good risk profile for income seeking investors with a desire for future dividend growth. The problem is that they are also highly valuated. This was one of the reasons why I needed to purchase more and more stocks from other sectors like industrials and healthcare stocks.

I’m not worried about this because with every single stock purchase of other industries and sectors, my diversification rises. The second negative item in terms of consumer good stocks is that most of them are low beta stocks. If you like to make money in a strong upside market, you lose performance with low beta stocks.

This is the reason why I discovered some high beta stocks with attractive valuation figures this month in an article serial. If you are interested, here are the links to the articles:

Back the current screen about high beta consumer dividend stocks. I observed this time large capitalized consumer dividend stocks with a low forward P/E and a beta ratio above one.

My screen produced only eleven results with yields between 0.71 percent and 2.58 percent. Nearly all of them (10 stocks) have a current buy or better rating by brokerage firms.

19 Consumer Dividend Stocks With Highest Sector Growth

Consumer dividend stocks with highest expected growth originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". Growth, that’s the most important factor when you trade stocks and like to make money over the long-run.

Growth is a must have but with rising growth rates, price ratios also go up. You should be careful with stocks that have a P/E ratio over 20 and a huge load of debt.

Today, I like to screen stocks from the consumer goods sector, one of my favorite investment fields. 2/3 of my personal stock holdings have a relation to the consumer area. I love those stocks especially when they are well managed and pay great dividends.

Consumer stocks are normally characterized by low cyclic stocks which produce solid returns on the invested capital. My screening criteria are:

- Positive Dividend Yield

- Market Capitalization over 10 billion

- Relationship to the Consumer Goods Sector

- EPS Growth over 10 Percent for the next 5 Years

Nineteen stocks matched my criteria of which fifteen have a current buy or better ratio. Car maker and supplier of them are dominating the results. Those are also stocks with the highest beta ratios.

Dividend Growth: 63 Stocks and Funds Boosted Dividend Payments To The Next Level

Stocks with dividend hikes from last week originally published at “long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. Last week was a great week with some attractive dividend hikes. In total, 63 stocks and funds raised dividends of which 41 have a dividend growth of more than 10 percent. The average dividend growth amounts to 32.31 percent. Below is a current list of all companies and funds with a dividend increase within the recent week.

On the list are some favorites of me. MMM is one of the companies. I owned some shares of the company a few years before but I sold the stake in expectation of a recession. MMM has some cyclic products and is a supplier for the industrial sector.

What I have learned from this asset sale was that it wasn’t necessary. I didn’t need the money and my view about the future perspectives was false. If you are a long-term investor, you shouldn’t be so anxious like I was. If the recession comes, you only need money to increase your stakes very wise and smart. Cash is king in the investment scene.
