Today I would like to go forward with my article serial about low leveraged stocks from several sectors with currently small dividend payouts. I will discover some of the greatest low leveraged technology stocks on the market with also low dividend payout ratios.

My criteria are still a low dividend payout ratio of less than 20 percent as well as a debt-to-equity ratio under 0.5. In order to get only higher capitalized stocks, I decided to choose only those companies with a market cap of more than USD 2 billion.

Fourteen shares fulfilled these criteria of which eleven got a buy or better rating.

20 Technology Dividend Stocks, Most Shorted By Investors

Technology dividend stocks with the highest float short ratio originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". Activists often sell stocks short. In the second step, they try to scary other investors in order to get the stock price down and to make some profits.

Today I like to show you which of the technology stocks have the highest float short ratio. The ratio shows you how many shares have been sold short. It’s ever interesting to see which companies have some problems and investors like to speculate on a falling stock price. The higher the ratio is, the bigger the problems of the company.

These are my criteria:

- Positive Dividend Yield

- Technology Sector Relationship

- Float Short Ratio over 5 percent

- Market Capitalization above 2 Billion

20 technology dividend stocks have fulfilled these criteria. I recognized that technology stocks with a high float short are also highly priced but I don’t think that it’s the only reason for the short sale. Companies like Nokia have a tough fight to compete with companies like Apple or Samsung within the smart phone market. The market speculates that Nokia will fail to gain market shares.

George Soros Top 30 Stock Holdings | A Portfolio Overview

George Soros is the founder of Soros Fund Management. In 1970 he co-founded the Quantum Fund with Jim Rogers and Christoper Ink, which created the bulk of the Soros fortune. Legendary was his currency speculation against the British Bank of England:

On September 16, 1992, Soros's fund sold short more than USD 10 billion worth of pounds sterling, profiting from the Bank of England's reluctance to either raise its interest rates to levels comparable to those of other European Exchange Rate Mechanism countries or to float its currency. Finally, the Bank of England withdrew the currency from the European Exchange Rate Mechanism, devaluing the pound sterling. Soros earned an estimated worth of USD 1.1 billion in the process. He was dubbed "the man who broke the Bank of England." UK Treasury estimated the total costs of Black Wednesday at GBP 3.4 billion in 1997.

Below is a top 30 list of his investment positions as of September 30, 2012. Soros Fund Management LLC was valued at $3.8 billion. Top New Buys: AIG, PXD, PNKD, GOOG, WAG, BTU, TGT, DNR, AMZN
