20 High-Yield Dividend Stocks With 15% Operating Margin

The main problem I've to deal with is that the dividend growth space is a very exclusive club. Stocks with a longer dividend growth history seen to offer more quality but if a stock has run dividend flat, it does not mean that they are not high quality.

Today I screened the overall market by High-Yields with 5% plus earnings growth for the next half decade and positive sales growth for the past 5 years.

The operating margin is over 15% and the debt-to-equity ratio under 1.

22 stocks fulfilled my current criteria of which 5 have a double-digit yield. Attached you can find a detailed list of the 20 highest yielding results.

Yield is good but if you combine it with growth, it looks better. Smaller capitalized stocks should also be evaluated.

These are results....

4 Stocks With Over 6 Percent Dividend Yield And Low Debt / Price-Earnings

On this blog, you can find many ideas about stocks with a longer dividend growth history but each Dividend King or Dividend Champion started its career with its first dividend payment 50 years ago.

It's very hard to predict which of the 400 companies will become the next Dividend King and who of the additional 3,000 shares will create the most shareholder values with the result of extraordinary strong dividend growth.

Today I've created a quick list about stocks that have a low price ratio (on current basis and for the future). In addition, the dividend should be bigger than a normal high-yielding stock and the debt situation should finally be on a normal level (below one). These are the criteria in detail:

Market Cap over USD 1 billion

Dividend yield is above 6 percent

At least one dividend hike in the past year

Trailing P/E is less than 15

Forward P/E is less than 15

Total debt to equity is less than 1.00

Only four stocks fulfilled the above mentioned criteria. Of which three are currently recommended to buy.

12 Highest Dividend Paying Mortgage Stocks

Stocks from the mortgage investment industry with highest dividend yields originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". 

The mortgage investment industry is a very complex looking investment field. Many people lost huge amounts of money during the financial crises if they were invested in this area. But the industry is also liquid for traders and has some of the best yielding stocks on the market. The mortgage industry is small but is still one of the highest dividend paying industries within the financial sector.

The average industry yield amounts to 4.66 percent and the P/E ratio is at 15.10. With a recovering house market, mortgage firms see improvements of their accounted assets. Everything goes slowly but I believe that the turnaround is definitely done.

12 listed mortgage firms pay dividends to investors. Five of them have an actual dividend yield of more than 10 percent and 10 are currently recommended to buy. Most stocks from the results are lower capitalized. Its very risky to put money into those stocks. Linked is a list of the 12 highest dividend paying stocks from the mortgage industry.
