For the uninitiated, each stock has a beta, which is indicative of its volatility. The beta of a stock is considered in relation to that of the broad market: The lower the beta, the less volatile the stock. So a stock with a beta of less than 1 is considered to be less volatile than the market, while a stock that has a beta of more than 1 is more volatile than the market.
We have scoured the market for several low-beta, high-performance stocks that look promising for the future and can safeguard your portfolio against risks. Each of the stocks are selected by high profitable growth criteria and cheap market valueations.
These stocks belong in your dividend portfolio....

20 High-Yield Dividend Stocks With 15% Operating Margin
The main problem I've to deal with is that the dividend growth space is a very exclusive club. Stocks with a longer dividend growth history seen to offer more quality but if a stock has run dividend flat, it does not mean that they are not high quality.
Today I screened the overall market by High-Yields with 5% plus earnings growth for the next half decade and positive sales growth for the past 5 years.
The operating margin is over 15% and the debt-to-equity ratio under 1.
22 stocks fulfilled my current criteria of which 5 have a double-digit yield. Attached you can find a detailed list of the 20 highest yielding results.
Yield is good but if you combine it with growth, it looks better. Smaller capitalized stocks should also be evaluated.
These are results....

13 Highly Shorted Healthcare Dividend Stocks
Activists often sell stocks short. They try to
scary other investors. Today I like to show you which of the healthcare 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
- Healthcare Sector Relationship
- Float Short Ratio over 5 percent
Thirteen healthcare dividend stocks have
fulfilled these criteria. Eight of them have a current buy or better rating.
20 Cheapest Healthcare Dividend Stocks
So, my major screening focus goes to cheap stocks, stocks with a low price to earnings ratio. Below is a list of the 20 cheapest healthcare dividend stocks with a forward P/E of less than 15. Health care plans companies are currently the cheapest choice in the list. Two High-Yields are part of the results and fifteen companies are recommended to buy.

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.

20 Of The Best Yielding Healthcare Growth Stocks For The Next Years
Healthcare
dividend stocks with best yields and big growth perspectives originally
published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". The healthcare sector is one of my favorite sectors behind the consumer goods sector. I love stocks from the medical equipment and appliances industry. Sure they offer a lower dividend but most of the stocks are major diversified in terms of international sales and they have a wonderful growth perspective.
Stocks from the whole healthcare sector have a total market capitalization of USD 66.298 billion. The average stock from the sector has a P/E of 26.63 and yield at 3.32 percent. These are very attractive figures from the earnings perspective. Debt is also high with a long-term debt to equity ratio of 88.63. As a result, the return on equity amounts to 17.61 percent.
Today I like to show you the best yielding healthcare growth opportunities at the market. I screened all healthcare stocks with a positive dividend payment and double-digit earnings per share growth for the next five years.
Nearly 40 companies fulfilled these criteria but some of them pay only very low dividends. Below is a small list of 20 stocks with the highest yield. Eleven of the results have a buy or better rating.

a buy or better recommendation. Five stocks have a yield over ten percent.

major business. At the stock markets are 551 companies linked to the sector with

to 3.93 percent and the average P/E ratio is 22.31.
I screened the sector by dividend stocks with the highest amount of short
selling stocks, measured by the short float ratio. The ratio shows how many stocks
are shorted by investors. Companies with a high ratio of short float have a little
upside potential if investors need to close their short position. Twelve dividend stocks from the healthcare sector have a short float ratio of more than 5 percent
and six are recommended to buy.
High Yield Stocks With Ex-Dividend Date June 2012
Monthly High
Yield Shares By Ex-Dividend Dates. High yield investing is popular

dividend, investors must take a look at the ex-dividend date. If you own a
share or fund before this day, you will receive the next dividend. I screened
interesting high yield stocks going ex-dividend within the next month – June
