6 Top Growth Heros With Potential To Lift Future Dividends

Only a growing dividend is a good dividend. That was one of my major rules when I started my dividend growth investing career. Since then, I quadrupled my net worth, only via dividend stock trading. That's a great feeling to see that it really works, but we must also consider that the markets are irrational valuated.

Today, I would like to share a new screen about dividend stocks that have beaten the market by sales and earnings growth numbers in the past. 


Not enough, they also have low debt, dividend payout ratios. Both are two major criteria to evaluate future dividend growth. These are the criteria in detail:

- Market cap is greater than USD 100 million
- Dividend yield is greater than 2%
- The payout ratio is less than 100%
- Total debt to equity is less than 1.00
- Average annual earnings growth for the past five years is greater than 25%
- Average annual sales growth for the past five years is greater than 10%

Six companies fulfilled the above mentioned criteria of which four have a current buy or better rating.

Ex-Dividend Stocks: Best Dividend Paying Shares On October 18, 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.

In total, 11 stocks go ex dividend - of which 5 yield more than 3 percent. Here is a full list of all stocks with ex-dividend date within the current week.

17 Dividend Stocks With Most Recent Dividend Growth

Stocks with dividend hikes from last week originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. 17 stocks announced to raise their dividends last week. It’s good to see that dividend growth still works despite the fact the total number of stocks is still very weak.

United Technologies is the biggest dividend riser from the last week. The company announced to boost its future dividends by 10 percent. Other big stocks are Gladstone Investment and Johnson Outdoors.

You can find a detailed list about all dividend growth stocks from last week in the attached list. There is also a small sheet with price ratios which makes it easier to compare the results.

Most of the long-term dividend growers are high quality stocks with expensive price ratios. Only five shares have a current forward P/E of less than 15. 

16 Cheap Dividend Stocks With Low Debt To Boost Share Repurchases

Dividend paying stocks with low debt ratios and big share repurchases originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. I love dividend growth stocks and dividend paying companies in general but it’s also important to see that the corporate buys its own shares back.

The process of share repurchases is a special way to give shareholder’s money back in a very tax-optimized way. 

A low yielding stock with a 2 percent yield can lift the total yield via stock repurchases to 4 percent or so. For sure, share buybacks are no cash yields on your trading account; it’s an indirect way to reduce the current shares and lift the potential share price.

There is an index outside that covers some of the best stocks with share repurchases that bought at least 5 percent of its outstanding shares within the past 12 months.

Today I would like to screen the Buyback Achievers index by the best yielding stocks with a low forward P/E as well as a very low debt-to-equity ratio. Low debt is a good indicator for potential growth or additional share buybacks.

These are my criteria in detail:
- Positive Dividend Yield
- Forward P/E under 15
- Long-Term Debt-To-Equity below 0.2
- Member of the Buyback Achievers Index

In total, sixteen Buyback Achievers Index stocks fulfilled the above mentioned restrictions of which ten have a current buy or better rating.
