My Favorite Dividend Contenders For March 2017

With a new month close at hand, it is time, once again, for me to lay out some of my stock considerations for the next several weeks of March. 

The point of these posts is to help take some of the guesswork out of where I plan to allocate my fresh capital going forward. By making my selections ahead of time, I find it easier to commit to buys, as all the homework and investment theses have already been completed on my end. 

All that's left to do is pull the "buy" trigger. These days, it seems easier said than done as the market - and many stocks I am considering - continue to march higher. I am finding it increasingly difficult to decide where I'd like to allocate my fresh capital. 

Rest assured, I will be making at least one buy in March, as I aim to stick to my own mantra of remaining consistent with my buys during all market conditions. 

I have no intentions of breaking my streak of making monthly buys. That being said, as I look at my portfolio, I am left with a handful of potential choices for the month of March.

Here are my favorite Dividend Contenders...

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.

20 Best Consumer Goods Stocks Beyond Procter & Gamble

Procter & Gamble (NYSE: PG) is a titan of the household products industry. The company is nearly 200 years old, worth more than $200 billion, and owns well-known brand names such as Tide, Gillette, and Pampers.

But the company has struggled recently. It's sold off secondary brands like Duracell, Cover Girl, and Zest to cut costs and focus on its core brands. 

Moreover, the company's once-strong pipeline of innovation has yielded little success, and spending on R&D as a percentage of sales is lower than it's been in almost any point in the last 20 years.

The Crest-maker's sales have fallen as it has shed brands, struggled to grow domestic sales, and faced a strengthening dollar. The stock is up 12% this year, but the long term looks challenging.

Here are 20 similar stocks with better prospects than P&G.

9 Potential Dividend Aristocrats You Need To Know

Long term dividend growth investing is a popular investing strategy. Investors are looking for stocks with a long dividend history and keep an eye on those companies with raising dividends.

There’s an elite sub-group of S&P 1500 stocks known as “Dividend Aristocrats” which have a distinguishing factor that income growth investors find very attractive: a history of consistently increasing dividends every year for at least 20 consecutive years.

And interestingly enough, for the last 10 years, this elite group has out-performed both the S&P 1500 and the benchmark S&P 500.

The lag of current Dividend Aristocrats is that they have shown a good past performance but this does not mean that they will perform in the future well.

In addition Dividend Aristocrats are very expensive due to the high quality they offer. That's in my view a good reason for looking into the second level.

Attached you will find 10 companies identified as “future dividend aristocrats contenders,” these being members of the S&P 1500 and not that many years away from showing the required two decades of dividend growth.

5 Top Dividend Stocks For A Winning Dividend Growth Portfolio

There are multiple styles of dividend investing out of which dividend growth is the most appealing. 

Stocks with dividend growth generally outperform their peers and generate increased profits year after year. 

Thus, the dividend growth strategy has an edge over the steady dividend strategy. By investing in stocks with dividend growth, investors can enjoy rising current income while awaiting capital appreciation. 

Dividend growth stocks also provide some margin of safety, which enables investors to withstand shocks. 

In fact, stocks that have a strong history of dividend growth, as opposed to those that have high yields, form a healthy portfolio. 

Moreover, these stocks often have superior fundamentals compared to other dividend paying stocks. This is because dividend growth is often an outcome of a sustainable business model, a long track record of profitability, rising cash flows, good liquidity, a strong balance sheet and some value characteristics. 

Here is a selection of stocks that could result in a winning dividend growth portfolio:

11 Potentially Undervalued Dividend Stock Ideas

While the markets go down, there could be a great change to find cheaper stocks, bargains or undervalued companies.

If a stock is really cheap, there are many criteria you must check. I do it every day but my main criteria from desk research are fundamentally driven.

Today I use one of my alternative screeners with data access to Standard & Poor’s. The screen looks for cheap valuated dividend paying stocks.

You can find few results attached. I hope you get new ideas and inspirations from this and if you like, you can also easily subscribe my news. Thank you for reading.

The following criteria have been used to create this view: 

- Modest dividend of at least 2%. 
- Potentially undervalued at Discount > 10%
- Acceptable financial position.
- No 'warning' companies. Good Coverage Ratios

Here are the top yielding results in detail...

21 Dividend Achiever With A Single P/E

Valuation is a key element when you consider putting money into stocks. A high valuated stock should also have high secured growth. If not, you might overpay the stock.

But a cheap valuation could also indicate the corporate is significant shrinking.

Each investor needs to evaluate the risk of the stock.

Today I like to show you the cheapest stocks below the Dividend Achievers. Those stocks have risen dividend year over year for a decade without a break and offer a single forward P/E.

21 Companies have such a low valuation measure. Attached you will find the complete list with a few essential fundamentals.

20 Potentially Undervalued Dividend Stocks

One of the most common pitfalls for investors is their tendency to chase returns in the market; that is to say, many investors are prone to being lured by “hot” names on Wall Street that are making big gains, as opposed to focusing on the “out of favor,” high-quality companies that may be due for a rebound. But it's risky to follow market gurus or to go with the trend.

Maybe a better approach could be buying, fundamentally-sound dividend stocks that seem to be underpriced at the moment. Make no mistake, like many feats in the investing world, this one is also easier said than done. 

As such, below we’ve tried to discover a few undervalued stocks that might be interesting for income investors. We've used a tool with data from CapitalIQ, a Standard&Poors Company. 

These stocks pay at least 2% dividend and are available at a discount to their share price.

The following criteria have been used to create this view:

- Modest dividend of at least 2%

- Potentially undervalued Discount > 10%)

- An acceptable financial position.

- No 'warning' companies

The forward P/E from most of the results are close to 10 or below.

6 Dividend Growth Stocks With A Cheap P/E Ratio

Investing in cheap stocks is popular because investors believe that the market will clarify one day the mispricing of a stock.

Attached is a compilation of the 6 cheapest stocks with a single-digit price-to-earnings ratio. Only six companies have a forward P/E ratio of less than 10.

Cheap for a resaon or not? That's the 100 million dollar question. If you're right, you will make money, if not, you lose some.

If I look at the results, there are some great picks like IBM on it. Attached is a full list of the results with more fundamental details in a quick list.

15 Dividend Contenders With Over 20% Return on Equity and Return on Investment

Dividend growth stocks with very high returns on equity and returns on investment originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. A solid investment delivers also solid returns over the time. Dividend growth is not the only criteria for a good investment. There are also many dividend growth stocks outside with low or negative return on investments and return on equity ratios.

Today I screened the Dividend Contenders Database by stocks with high return ratios. I fixed the 20 percent level in order to get the best results.

Only 15 companies fulfilled both, a return on equity as well as a return on investment over 20 percent. The difference between those two ratios is that the return on investment does not include the leverage effect. A corporate with high debts will automatically generate high returns on equity. The second ratio is a performance measure that looks only at the investment by dividing the investment return by the costs of the investment.

One High-Yield is below the results and 10 stocks got a buy or better rating by brokerage firms. Leverage is the key for high returns in my screen. As you might see in the attached sheet, the debt ratios are modestly high but in the end, the investor will pay a higher price for a leveraged company.

17 Cheap Dividend Contenders With Buy Ratings And Double-Digit Growth

Cheap Dividend Contenders with high growth and buy ratings originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Dividend growth and passive income strategies for normal investors is the core content of this blog. I personally create these articles to share my thoughts about good dividend paying stocks.

The underlying aim is to build a portfolio with high-quality dividend stocks that hike dividends in the future and boost your passive income. If they pay a good dividend and they grow, the share price must follow one day and reflect the corporate success.

Today I would like to present some dividend growth stocks with 10 to 25 years of growing dividends and buy or better ratings. These are my criteria in detail:

- 10 to 25 years of consecutive dividend growth

- Cheap forward P/E of less than 15

- EPS growth for the next five years over 10 percent yearly

- Buy or better rating by brokerage firms

Seventeen stocks fulfilled the above mentioned criteria of which one pays a high yield over five percent. Two companies have a strong buy rating.
