9 Cheap Dividend Aristocrats You Shoud Consider For The Year 2017

2016 is in the books, and the S&P 500 gained over 11% on the year. That’s great news if you’re already in the stock market … but it’s bad news if you’re looking to buy.

The market’s price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is now 26.1, which is 17.6% higher than it was at the beginning of the year. In other words, if you buy stocks now, you’re paying nearly a fifth more for those companies’ earnings than you would have nearly 12 months ago.

We want stocks that have gone up less than the market year-to-date and with P/E ratios that are below the S&P 500 average. Our shopping list should also include companies with strong financials, and especially a history of revenue—and dividend—growth.

You may be surprised to hear that there are a few such stocks are out there, even if they’re getting tougher to find.

Attached I've compiled a list of the cheapest Dividend Aristocrats by forward P/E. They might be a first step for further research.

Here are the cheapest Dividend Aristocrats....

10 Cheap Dividend Aristocrats And The 20 Highest Yielding Aristocrats

With anemic global economic growth, investors have become leery about U.S. companies' ability to grow earnings and increase dividends.

Indeed, S&P 500 earnings declined for the fifth consecutive period in the second quarter of 2016 and even if the third quarter results are positive, the growth rate is likely to be very small. A potential consequence of this "earnings recession" is that future dividends could be at risk. Earnings are an essential driver of dividends, and ultimately returns, so there is good reason for concern.

But there's an exclusive group of companies that may provide an answer. The S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index includes high quality companies that have increased their dividends every year for at least 25 consecutive years.

How are these companies able to continually grow dividends? One answer is by delivering earnings growth. The S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats have delivered positive annual earnings growth for the first two quarters of 2016 in amounts that were substantially higher than the broad market.

Attached you will find a compilation of the cheapest Dividend Aristocrats. You can also find a list of the 20 highest yielding Aristocrats at the end of this article. You might notice that yield and cheapness are sometimes not the same.

These are the cheapest Dividend Aristocrats....

15 Dividend Champions With A Cheap Forward P/E Under 15

While looking for a bargain dividend stock, many investors simply screen for those with the highest yield or the one that's fallen the most in the past month. 

But I take a different approach: How much of a yield will I likely be getting for my purchase 10 years from now?

That type of thinking has led to a couple of outstanding picks over the years. 

For instance, I bought shares of Aflac in Feb. 2009 for $17.50. Seven years later, I now get $1.64 in dividends for every share I own. In other words, I now have a 9.4% yield. And it goes up every quarter.

Viewed through this lens, these are nearly a dozen dividend stocks that I think are bargains right now -- based on what they'll likely be paying 10 years from now.

The attached list includes all Dividend Champions with a forward P/E of less than 15. Each of the results grown dividends over more than 25 consecutive years.

These are the stocks I'm talking about...

11 Cheap Income Growth Stocks

Only the incredibly wealthy can afford to leave dividend stocks out of a retirement portfolio. The rest of us would run the risk of outliving our money.

It's really hard to find bargains with low risk and high dividend payments. The most of the high yielders offering enormous risks.

That's exactly why I keep my investment focus on dividend growth stocks with a higher capitalization. Those are real assets that could survive the next crises easily.

We’ve done the research and found 11 great stocks that could increase your income safely! Not to mention, they’re still underpriced.

Each of the attached results is a member of the Dividend Aristocrats Index. That's one of the most trusted investment categories you can find on the market.

12 Best Performing Dividend Aristocrats

The Dividend Aristocrats are a group S&P 500 that have each paid increasing dividends for 25+ consecutive years. 

We are talking a lot of the best dividend paying stocks and trying to find the best investment ideas for the years to come.

But what kind of investments worked in the past? For sure, each of the Dividend Aristocrats have shown a great performance in recent years but if you put your chips on those stocks in 2009, which of them generated the best performance, better than the overall market and better than other long-term dividend growth stocks.

I will tell you the answer in this short article.

There are currently only 50 Dividend Aristocrats. What's important about the Dividend Aristocrats is how well they have performed. Not all Dividend Aristocrats are good investments, especially in today's overvalued market. Low interest rates have pushed up real asset values, especially dividend stocks. This makes finding high quality dividend growth stocks trading at reasonable prices more difficult.

Here are 12 stocks of the S&P Dividend Aristocrats Index with more than 400% return ranked by the higehest price development since 2009.

6 Cheap Dividend Aristocrats With A Current Buy Rating

Despite the almost constant chatter on whether the Federal Reserve raises rates this week, many top strategists on Wall Street are convinced the Fed holds off until at least December, and maybe until 2017.

While Fed Chair Janet Yellen and members of the Federal Open Market Committee may start to ramp up a more hawkish tone at the end of the year, any interest rate increases will be very patient and deliberate.

The 2016 S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats list includes 51 companies that have increased dividends (not just remained the same) for 25 years straight. Keep in mind that just because they are on this list now doesn’t mean in the future they will be forced to reduce their dividend.

Today we screened the list for cheap stocks with a Buy rating. Six stocks from the index matched our criteria.

Here are the results...

These 6 Reliable Dividend Growers Doing Better Than The Economy

Earnings for Standard & Poor’s 500 companies appear to have fallen for a fifth consecutive quarter in the three months through June, but earnings grew in half of the sectors, including industrials, health care, technology, and consumer discretionary, and would have grown overall without the downward pull of the energy sector.

The six companies that follow have steadily grown their earnings in recent years and are expected to do so in coming ones. They pay dividends and trade at discounts to the market. They don’t sell packaged food, tobacco, booze, or power, but their statistical profiles resemble companies that do.

These are the results....

20 Dividend Aristocrats For Retirees

Investment strategies change with age. While a younger investor with a longer time horizon may seek out high-risk, high-growth stocks, older folks, especially those in retirement, will want investments that provide safety and a solid source of income. 

As a retiree, you'll want to make sure the stocks you choose will protect your initial investment, offer some growth, and have the ability to pay a growing dividend. 

The S&P 500's Dividend Aristocrat list, which contains stocks on the index that have raised their dividends for at least 25 years straight, may be a good place to start, but bear in mind that past performance does not necessarily predict future returns.

For stocks with bright dividend growth ahead, retirees may want to consider the picks below.

These 7 Stocks Paid Dividends Over 100 Years

Today, we’re focusing on precisely seven of those companies — a group of high-quality dividend stocks that have reliably paid investors since the 19th century.

Paying dividends for such a long period of time is a clear signal of financial strength and indicates that a company has numerous competitive advantages that have withstood the test of time. 

 All of these businesses have created massive value for shareholders.

In fact, over the last 20 years, each of these blue-chip dividend stocks has delivered a total return greater than 550% — easily outpacing the S&P 500 index’s total return of about 360%.

Here are the results...

8 Momentum Gaining Dividend Champions

Dividend growth is an important issue for long-term wealth creation. A solid growing stock that might also share its growth success with shareholders could boost your cash income for the next years. 

It doesn't make sense to observe stocks with a great performance in the past. A stock that doubled dividends in the past five years might run their future dividends flat. 

That’s not the optimal case for good long-term growth investment. Today I started a research of stocks that might accelerate their dividend growth in the future. 

My basis research included stocks with a 25 year consistent dividend growth history.

Here are 8 companies from the Champions List that I believe will see accelerating dividend growth over the next few years....

The Next 20 Dividend Kings: Stocks With 44 Years Of Consecutive Dividend Growth And More To Come

First, though, a reminder of why you should consider dividends for your portfolio. 

For starters, they generate income, which is obviously welcome in retirement, but it can also be welcome when you're younger, as dividend dollars can be reinvested in additional shares of stock, building your nest egg. 

It's really important to look how many cash you get back from your investment in the future. Recently I wrote about dividend growth and the benefit of long-term dividend growth investing. I summarized all Dividend Kings in a list.

Today I would show you those stocks that are close to Dividend Kings and should become a full hero in five years or so.

I call the selection the next 20. Each of the stocks has grown dividends over at least 44 years without an interruption.

Here are the results...

20 Dividend Aristocrats With Double-Digit Earnings Growth Forecasts

Each growth investor needs to take a look at future earnings growth. The higher the expected earnings growth, the bigger the valuation multiples of the corporate but the art is not to overpay a growth company and to balance growth and price.

Of course, when you’re searching for impressive earnings growth, you also want to make sure the companies in question are big enough to offer some stability, and traded with enough volume to provide some liquidity.

It's always good to make first selection with high-quality stocks. One way is to screen only the Dividend Aristocrats Index.

The Dividend Aristocrats Index is comprised of 51 stocks that have paid dividends for 25+ consecutive years. Dividend Aristocrats are large cap, blue chip companies from many different industries, but they have all demonstrated a healthy balance between capital growth and dividend income.
