One of the smartest moves you can
make before, during, and after a market correction is to load your portfolio
with high-quality dividend-paying companies.
Not only have
companies that pay a dividend historically outperformed publicly listed
companies that don't pay a dividend, but they offer other advantages as well.
To begin with, the willingness of a company to pay a regular dividend signifies
the health of its business model and portends that it likely has a positive
long-term growth outlook.
In order to
catch the highest yielding growth opportunities from the market that might
offer low risk, if selected a few high yielders from the dividend growth space
with future growth prospects.
These are my main
criteria:
- 5-Year earnings
growth forecast over 5 percent
- Over 4% dividend
yield
- Consecutive
dividend growth history over 10 years
- Market Cap over 2 billion
- Market Cap over 2 billion
20 stocks
fulfilled the above mentioned criteria of which 7 have a low forward P/E.
