20 Financials With The Highest YTD-Performance And Which Are The Cheapest Stocks

Financial dividend stocks with highest performance year-to-date originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Today I would like to discover the financial sector by the best performing dividend stocks. Financial companies are in focus of main street investors.

We live in a span of a financial bubble and financial services stocks, banks as well as insurer are the main provider for the financial system. Not all of them benefited from the money easing by the fed but in some cases you can see a definitely increase in the company’s balance sheet. The risks rose and yields went down over the recent years. Today, we need much more money to receive the same capital income as 10 years before.

I personally do not own banks or insurer. I still have no opinion or idea about how they could reduce their risk exposure in the financial market. They are real black boxes for me.

However, the 20 best performing financial dividend stocks with a market capitalization over USD 300 million gained 54.50 percent to 97.22 percent since the beginning of the year. Nine of the results still have a buy or better recommendation.

48 Top Yielding Stocks With Ex-Dividend Date In April 2013

Monthly high yielding shares researched by “long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. Yields getting low and they will stay at this level when companies don’t hike future dividends. For investors who live from dividend payments like me, it’s very necessary to get a good yield for the money.

I always have a big picture of stocks that go ex-dividend in the near future in order to get quick cash back from my investments. Sure it’s not a trading strategy because after the ex-dividend date, the stock is also traded lower in the amount of the dividend.

However, I screen every month some interesting high yielding stocks with ex-dividend date within the next month. As result, I found 48 stocks with an average dividend yield of 5.20 percent. Five stocks have a double-digit yield and eight a high yield. 20 stocks from the results have a buy or better recommendation.

25 Stocks Increased Dividends Last Week

Stocks with dividend hikes from last week originally published at “long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. Last week, 25 companies announced to raise their dividend distributions to shareholders. Many REITs and closed-end funds are on the list of the growth stocks.

My favorite is General Mills. GIS increased its dividends by 15.2 percent. That’s a pretty good value in my view especially when you consider that General Mills is not a fast growing stock. I also put shares of GIS into my Dividend Yield Passive Income Portfolio. With the latest hike, the current yield is back above the 3 percent mark.

Another stock with monthly paying dividends is Realty Income. It seems ambitious how fast they grow dividends. The latest hike was 0.2 percent on a monthly basis. The dividend payments of Realty Income are still higher than the earnings per share income – How long could this go on?

From 25 stocks with dividend growth from last week are 15 with a dividend growth of more than 10 percent. The average dividend growth amounts to 34.58 percent. Linked is a full free list of all companies and funds with some price ratios to compare.

Below the results are 4 High-Yields; 13 companies have a current buy or better rating.
