An Overview Of The Best Industrial Dividend Income Stocks Q4/2017

The companies on this list were originally selected based on their track records of dividend growth, financial ratings, and earnings growth.

With the industrials being cyclical in nature, I've found that this sector is one of the more difficult ones to forecast, both in putting valuations on companies and in predicting future dividend growth.

The following table contains historical dividend growth information as well as current dividend rate, dividend yield, analyst earnings expectations, and the corresponding PE ratio and payout ratio from these numbers.

24 Dividend Growth Stocks With Solid Yields To Consider

Dividend growth is a wonderful thing, but you should also require the stocks you buy to look cheap. Here I seek out stocks trading at multiples of price to sales, earnings, and cash flow lower than five-year averages.

Stocks that trade at discounted valuations can be cheap for a reason, so I also require expected sales growth for the year ahead to be positive. Using these criteria, the 24 stocks shown in the table have proven themselves to be “dividend growth superstars” that kept on paying and even raising their dividends through the 2008-2009 financial crisis. They also trade at historically cheap valuations on at least two of the three ratios I use to determine value: price/sales, price/earnings, and price/cash flow.

If you follow a strategy of investing in temporarily cheap stocks of companies that habitually hike their dividends, not only will you experience significant capital gains when the stock falls back into favor with the market, but the yield you earn on your original investment can balloon to downright plump proportions.

I am personally finding plenty of interesting bargains and reasonable valuations in the industrial sector these days, one of the few places they exist.

20 Stocks With A Billion Dollar Buyback Program And Yields Over 2%

Let me ask you this: Would you rather buy a 10-year Treasury, which currently yields about 2%, or would you rather buy a large-cap stock with a 2% dividend yield, a billion-dollar stock buyback program, and share appreciation potential? 

With bond yields as low as they are, there's no contest. The Fed's zero interest rate policy has created a situation where there's nowhere to go except the stock market. 

Of course, the story will change once the Fed raises interest rates, which will make it more expensive for companies to borrow on the bond market. So there is a raging debate about when that will happen.

It is always better to own stocks in such situations. Those can hedge you against inflation. Fur sure, stocks are risky but if you look at the values of a company, and you avoid the big risks by not taking very cyclic stocks into your portfolio, you should be rewarded with a solid return.

Here are some alternatives with yields over 2% and a current buyback program worth over a billion dollar...
