Are These 8 Great Dividend Grower Underestimated By The Market?

I like it when stocks fall because they become cheaper. That's the reason why I always look at companies with a really bad stock performance.

I personally don't care about analysts and lead investors who are sometimes anxious about the future of the company. In other cases, they need to justify their portfolio risk.

I love it to see bad performing dividend stocks with a very long history of solid growing dividends, especially when the future outlook is still bright.

Below I've highlighted some of the worst performing and most disliked dividend growth stocks on the market with a negative 1-Year performance. They all got low forward P/E and yields over 3 percent.

What do you think, are they underestimated by the market?

3 Best And Worst Performing Dividend Champions In 2013

We're coming to the year-end and I would like to review the performance of the best and worst stocks from the Dividend Champions list.

The best performing stocks increased by 60.77 percent over the whole year while the worst performer declined by 17.34 percent.

In total, we can summarize that the year 2013 was a good year for all investors. Big money came in due to the monetary policy and helped to boost stocks at all-time highs.

54 Large Cap Dividend Stocks At All-Time Highs And Which To Buy

High capitalized dividend stocks at All-Time-High prices originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Only a rising stocks is a good stock if you are invested. The markets are really bullish after FED chairman Bernanke has flooded the market with cheap money over the recent years. As a result, the many stock markets all over the world hit all-time highs. But not all stocks are winners.

I’ve screened the market by large capitalized stocks at All-Time-Highs. 76 companies have reached this goal and 54 of them pay good dividends. It looks like stocks at new highs are also highly priced. That’s not true. 30 of the top results still have a forward P/E below 15.

Below is a small list of the dividend stocks at new All-Time-Highs with forward P/E’s fewer than 15 as well as double-digit earnings growth predictions for the next five years. Eleven companies fulfilled these criteria.

Basic Material Dividend Stocks With Highest YTD Performance And Which Are Still Cheap

Basic material dividend stocks with highest performance year-to-date originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. The basic material stock category were the real losing sector this year. Stocks from the sector are down 2.6 percent this year while the best performing sector, healthcare stocks, gained 24.3 percent.

But not all basic materials are loser. There are stocks that doubled its price since the beginning of this year. Others are up 50 percent. Below, you can find a small list of the 20 top basic material stocks. I excluded all companies with a market capitalization below USD 300 million and those without a dividend.

The 20 top dividend paying results gained from 44.58 percent to 65.14 percent. Three of the results have a market cap below a billion and additional seven are valuated between one or two billion. Small and mid-cap stocks are the main performance driver of the sector. Despite the strong stock price hikes, fourteen companies still have a buy or better rating.

Industrial Dividend Stocks With Highest Performance And Still Cheap Price Ratios

Industrial dividend stocks with highest performance year-to-date originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Warren Buffett likes industrials, not as much as consumer or healthcare stocks, but he owns a few players from the sector. I personally own some good names from the Dividend Champions list and be happy that I have purchased them a few years before.

Today I would like to screen the investment sector by the best performing dividend stocks since the beginning of the year. Below is a detailed view on cheapest results.

The 20 industrial dividend stocks with highest year-to-date performance generated a return between 37.67 percent and 129.11. Small and mid-cap stocks are the performance driver of the year. 13 of the results have a market capitalization below USD 2 billion.

The whole sector is up 13.8 percent over the recent six month, the third best value on the capital market. I believe that stocks with a good stock performance are healthy. Capital investors are confident about the future prospects of the company and they like to pay a higher price to participate on the future of the business.

Not all of the best performing stocks are now expensive. 13 of the results have a low forward P/E and 10 are currently recommended to buy.

20 Financials With The Highest YTD-Performance And Which Are The Cheapest Stocks

Financial dividend stocks with highest performance year-to-date originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Today I would like to discover the financial sector by the best performing dividend stocks. Financial companies are in focus of main street investors.

We live in a span of a financial bubble and financial services stocks, banks as well as insurer are the main provider for the financial system. Not all of them benefited from the money easing by the fed but in some cases you can see a definitely increase in the company’s balance sheet. The risks rose and yields went down over the recent years. Today, we need much more money to receive the same capital income as 10 years before.

I personally do not own banks or insurer. I still have no opinion or idea about how they could reduce their risk exposure in the financial market. They are real black boxes for me.

However, the 20 best performing financial dividend stocks with a market capitalization over USD 300 million gained 54.50 percent to 97.22 percent since the beginning of the year. Nine of the results still have a buy or better recommendation.

Services Dividend Stocks With Highest Stock Performance - And Which Of Them Are Still Cheap

Services dividend stocks with highest year-to-date performance originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. The more I discover the best performing stocks from the recent half year, the better the performance gets. 

Today I would like to discover stocks from the services sector with the highest year-to-date performance. The sector is the second best performer behind the healthcare segment but the performance is more unequal distributed: The best dividend stocks on the top 20 list have a price performance between 60 percent and 247 percent. Service is a place to be for investors.

In order to reduce some extraordinary companies and to get better results, I decided to exclude all stocks with a lower market capitalization (below USD 300 million). Small cap stocks have normally a higher performance ratio, also in this screen: More than half of the results have a market cap below a billion dollars. The average market cap of the top 20 stocks after my limit rule amounts to USD 2.6 billion.

Despite the strong stock price growth; twelve shares still have a buy or better rating. Broadcasting and TV companies are very hot and dominating the screening results. There is some rumor in the market about takeovers and mergers.

The Best Performing Utilities And Which Of Them Are Still Cheap

Utility dividend stocks with highest performance year-to-date originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Utilities are often high dividend payers but they also have high debt amounts and their growth abilities are very limited.

Normally, you should not expect higher capital gains due to the slow growth and high investment costs.

It’s surprising that the best performing utilities gained 18 percent to 80 percent within the first six months of the year. I my view, it’s a shift to quality business models with higher yields and stable returns. Investors look for investment alternatives outside the bond sector and utilities are a place to be for the time being.

You can find a small list of the 20 best performing utility dividend stocks. I excluded all companies with a market capitalization below 300 million. They are definitely too risky and some of them have an extraordinary high return. Lower valuated companies dominating the top results. The average market capitalization amounts to 3.6 billion.

Despite the large price increase of the stocks, twelve of them still have a buy or better rating.

Half-Time Report: The Best Healthcare Dividend Stocks And Which Of Them Are The Cheapest

Healthcare dividend stocks with the highest year-to-date performance originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". We’ve completed the month June and it’s time to report which stocks have risen most within the first six months of the year. It’s ever good to see which stocks are hot in the market and which of them are still cheap valuated.

That’s the main reason why I like to produce an article serial with performance figures of the best performing stocks from several sectors of the financial market.

Today I like to screen the healthcare sector by dividend stocks with the highest stock performance since the beginning of the year.

The 20 most successful companies have realized a performance between 22.01 percent and 73.98 percent. The average capital gain was 36.24 percent. Despite the strong stock price hike, seventeen of them still have a buy or better rating.

10 Of The Best Performing Growth Stocks From The Past Decade | A Review

Apple - AAPL
Best Growth Stock Pick

Best performing stocks from the last decade originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". We all love it to see how our investments grow. Not enough, we spent much more time for searching those stocks that tenfold over the next ten years.

Have you ever had some stocks that doubled in a year, quadrupled in five years and even tenfold in ten years? I do. But I sold the stocks before they started to run. No good choice from me.

Only growth can make you rich. If you buy a stock at a low market capitalization and the company grows over the next twenty years with rates around the double-digit rage, your wealth will follow.

So, let’s spent some time and learn from the best growth stocks of the recent decade. Many of the other top stocks were indeed small and obscure, however. Eight of the companies were valued below $100 million a decade ago. And four of the companies still have market caps below $1 billion, even with the remarkable returns they were able to generate over the past decade.

Only two stocks of the best growth stocks from the past decade pay dividends as of now. But they have much more to offer: Growth and cash!

Corporate Bonds – A Safe Haven For 2012

Corporate Bonds – A Safe Haven For 2012 By Guest Blogger Imogen Reed. The US economy may have turned a corner, growth in Asia may still be impressive, and the Eurozone may have been saved from going into free fall, but 2012 still promises to be an ‘interesting’ year, and a difficult one for investors. The US recovery is still not entirely secure, and if the last few months are anything to go by it is likely that this recovery will be a much slower affair than previous ones, partly at least due to the high levels of personal and government debt, which will inevitably act as a dampener on expansion for several years. Asian growth rates whilst still impressive are gradually moderating, affected not only by the slowdown in the western economies, but also by increasing costs of production resulting from indigenous wage pressures and external increases in the cost of raw materials. Meanwhile, crisis in the Eurozone may have only been deferred rather than averted. The Greek tragedy may have been largely discounted by the markets, but countries such as Portugal and Spain remain perilously close to the edge, and even countries outside the Euro such as the UK are experiencing almost no growth, and are under threat of having their AAA debt rating downgraded.
