32 Stocks Raised Dividends Last Week | Oil & Gas Companies Are Big Players

I love dividends and dividend growth stocks because they are one of my major wealth driver. That’s the main reason why I make a regular screen of the latest stocks with dividend growth on my blog “long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. 

I believe that companies with rising dividends should have a well running business and could have a better performance in the long-run. Below is a current list of companies that have announced a dividend hike within the recent week. In total, 32 stocks and funds raised dividends of which 18 have a dividend growth of more than 10 percent. The average dividend growth amounts to 25.33 percent.

Below the top dividend growth stocks are eight with a high yield. 16 companies are currently recommended to buy or even have a strong buy rating. 

If I scroll through the list, I find many oil and gas companies as well as financial stocks. Banks pay more dividends in order to establish pre-financial crises level. Well, that’s still far away. 

Oil & Gas pipeline operators raised dividends very continuously in the past. They benefit from the fact that America experiences a new oil rush with shale gas and shale oil. The new energy sources must be transported with an infrastructure that does not exist for the time being. 

It could be more interesting to look at railroad stocks. I try to make a screen in the near future. What are your thoughts about the lastest dividend growth stocks? Do you own some of them? Would you buy one of them? Please let me know and leave a comment in the box below!

21 Stocks At All-Time-Highs | 13 Dividend Payer

People love to watch stocks that are going up and never stop to run. It makes more fun if you own this stock or you are a part of the company. The feeling is unbelievable. You watch your share price and nearly every day a new high is realized. You also check also your accounting balance of your trading account and you see how much your position is worth. That is a really wonderful emotion. I had often had this feeling. What about you? Do have a stock with such a performance that produced a similar feeling?

In my blog I present on a regular basis the stocks at new 52-Week Highs or even better, stocks at all time highs. Recently, 21 companies realized price marks they have never seen before. 13 of them pay dividends. All-Time Highs are very good signals showing the strong investor confidence in the stock and indicating a well- running business.
