Ex-Dividend Stocks: Best Dividend Paying Shares On March 11, 2013

The best yielding and biggest ex-dividend stocks researched by ”long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. Dividend Investors should have a quiet overview of stocks with upcoming ex dividend dates.

The ex dividend date is the final date on which the new stock buyer couldn’t receive the next dividend. If you like to receive the dividend, you need to buy the stock before the ex dividend date. I made a little screen of the best yielding stocks with a higher capitalization that have their ex date on the next trading day.

A full list of all stocks with payment dates can be found here: Ex-Dividend Stocks March 11, 2013. In total, 22 stocks and preferred shares go ex dividend - of which 6 yield more than 3 percent. The average yield amounts to 3.97%.

Here is the sheet of the best yielding, higher capitalized ex-dividend stocks:

100 Stocks At All-Time Highs | 60 Dividend Stocks Below The Results

Stocks at All-Time-Highs originally published at “long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. It’s important to know what kind of stocks run and which are losing ground.

In my blog, I present on a regular basis some interesting stocks at new 52-Week Highs or even better, stocks at All-Time Highs. Linked are 100 companies that realized price marks they have never seen before. 60 of them pay dividends and nearly 80 have a current buy or better rating.

Walt Disney (NYSE:DIS): Fundamental Research Analysis | 44 Pages Strong Stock PDF

Disney is a diversified media company and makes money through several businesses including cable networks, broadcasting network, theme parks & hotels, filmed entertainment and consumer products.

Its cable networks include channels such as ESPN, the Disney Channel, ABC Family & others. Disney's broadcasting arm, ABC Network, is one of the biggest broadcasting networks in the U.S. with a wide viewership. 


Apart from TV networks, Disney boasts of several theme parks and resorts that attract millions of visitors every year. Furthermore, the company leverages its famous characters and brands to sell a variety of merchandise. Its filmed entertainment unit produces and distributes movies under Disney Studios brand.


Disney's media networks and parks and resorts showed healthy growth in earnings. ESPN is the biggest contributor to Disney's value overall, and we believe the outlook is secure for the sports network giant. Affiliate and licensing fees are growing contributors to earnings, and this is something to watch. Also Disney acquired the Star Wars franchise and we expect this to help its studio entertainment and consumer businesses. 

Hurricane Sandy Destroys - These 22 Stocks Benefit Most From The Monster Storm Of The Millenium

The hurricane Sandy is forecasted as one of the worst storms ever. Whatever will happen, the stock market will survive and business goes on. I researched some interesting companies that could earn some extra money due to the after-effects of the storm Sandy. We have classified our results in industries and introduced some of the major leaders. These are the results:


1. Home Improvement
People who lost their homes and mobiles need to repurchase these products. Companies within the home improvement industry should benefit from the hurricane. The major leaders are Home Depot (HD) and Lowe’s (LOW).

2. Dining Restaurants
Humans who have left their homes need to stay away from home at friends or near family members. For a few days, diner restaurants could make some extra profits from this. Starbucks (SBUX), Dunkin Brands (DNKN) and McDonalds (MCD) are basic investments but a bit too big and well diversified that the super storm should have a significant influence.

3. Travel Companies
If people leave their homes, they need to choose a provider if they don’t have an own car. Lodging stocks, auto rents, Airlines, railroads are main benefiters.

4. Insurer
Insurer should make a loss. If the damages are higher than expected, reinsurance companies should be the biggest losers. If the damages are lower than estimated, insurer could benefit, especially some players from the property and casualty insurance industry. Market leader are Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A, BRK.B), American International (AIG), Travelers (TRV) or even Allstate (ALL). 

5. Consumer Goods
People need to buy extra storage of food, water and batteries. Companies like Procter&Gamble (PG) have a big relationship to the consumer battery industry (Duracell). Otherwise, the company should benefit from replacement buys of flooded goods.

6. Diversified Machinery
Some companies from the diversified machinery industry have products against flooding. Companies like Xylem (XYL) and PentAir (PNR) produce pumps used in dewatering, drainage and other applications.

7. Stores
Grocery and discount stores should benefit from hamster purchases. Wal-Mart (WMT), Family Dollar Stores (FDO), Target (TGT) or Costco Wholesale (COST) are basic investments.

8. Media Companies
People are sitting in front of their media devices like smart phones, radio, television etc. Facebook (FB), News Corp (NWSA), NY Times (NYT) or even CBS Corporation (CBS) should generate a higher attention.

9. General Building
Cement companies like Eagle Materials (EXP), homebuilder, raw material companies should have a special bull market. Companies like Beacon Roofing Supply (BECN) have a great market position.

Whatever will happen, nothing is so bad to make too fast decisions. But an overreaction could give investors a great opportunity for long-term investors. These are my personal favorites to watch:
