Income stocks are considered to be good investment options as they generate a secure ongoing stream of regular income for the duration that the stock is held. Hence, such stocks can be an excellent option for risk-averse, long-term investors.
Investors often look for quick money-making alternatives by investing in stocks and achieving fast capital appreciation through increases in share prices. However, the risks involved in the selection process - unexpected stock price declines, market selloffs and elevated tax costs on short-term investments - are often overlooked.
Dividend investing is prudent as dividends are a less risky component of total return than capital appreciation. Also, dividend stocks are historically less volatile than non-dividend stocks. Moreover, they reflect a company's solid financial structure and strong fundamentals.
Whether it's an up market or a down market, there's always a place for dividend investing. Here's why: The yields on dividend stocks rise when their share prices go down.
That's an opportunity to chase extra yield. On the flip side, if the market is escalating upwards - that's obviously good for all equities. Hence, it can be easily said that dividend-paying stocks are always appropriate for long-term investors.
Attached I've compiled a couple of dividend stocks that might be interesting to buy and hold for the next year. All stocks offer a dividend yield of minimum 3% and have a steady dividend growth rate of above 5% in the last five years.
These are the results...

5 Great Dividend Paying Stocks With Yields Over 3% To Buy For 2017
Dividend stocks are income investor favorites because they not only pay cash to shareholders but also boost their payouts over time. These stocks are generally less volatile in nature and hence are often more dependable when it comes to long-term investment planning.
Dividend-paying stocks are particularly beneficial amid a low interest rate environment, as these stocks offer substantial yields on a regular basis. Moreover, such stocks are historically proven to outperform in the long term and are quite reliable in terms of wealth creation.
Yield is basically a stock’s annual dividend rate divided by its share price. A dividend yield can increase if a company boosts its payout. The yield can also rise if the share price falls. In fact, an ultra-high yield due to a plunging stock price may signal that a company is in trouble and is likely to cut or even suspend the dividend.
It's very important to own safe high yielding stocks. Not a high yield is the key for a successful investing, a stable and growing yield is the conclusion.
Attached you will find five stocks that offer current and historical dividend yield of more than 3% and might pay them for the next quarters.

My Top Stocks From The International Dividend Achievers Index
Dividends help identify well-managed companies; every dividend declaration represents a promise by management and a vote of confidence by the board of directors in the company's leadership.
Companies that consistently raise their dividend payouts also raise the bar on their own performance expectations.
Shares of dividend-paying companies possess built-in value that makes them generally more resilient in down markets, with solid appreciation potential during earnings-driven market upturns — with less price volatility.
That's the theory. In real, there are several indices you can follow in order to discover the best dividend paying stocks.
Very poplular are Dividend Aristocrats and the CCC Lists. But those have in common that they are focussed on national domiciled stocks.
For sure, on an international basis, the number of stocks with a long dividend growth history is very limited. That's the reason why we need to turn down the classic rules of Dividend Growth.
Today I screened the lists of International Dividend Achievers, stocks with more than 5 consecutive years of dividend growth by companies with good looking fundamentals and growth perspectives.
Attached you will find 17 of my top results. The list contains 6 stocks with a yield over 4 percent.
Here are the results...
Here Is How Commodities Performed Over The Past 10 Years
Don't worry about the big decrease of the commodity prices. The main reason in my view is that the world economy is slowing down while commodity producer have spend billions of money to wide their production. They searched and explored new mines and increased their output.
As a result we see a massive price decline. But if you believe in long-term growth, you should know the cyclic of the commodity sector.
Here you can see the price fluctuations of the past decade...

19 Cheap Stocks With A Free Cashflow Yield Over 6.67%
Everyone needs cheap stocks for a
solid return. But what cheap really means depends on your growth expectations.
I tell you that
earnings are not equal to free cash flow. Some companies need much money to
grow or they put large amounts of cash into the business to keep them alive due
to high amortizations.
If you look for
cheap stocks, you also need to cheap price to free cash flow ratios.
Today I would like
to introduce a few dozen or and a few more stocks with a cheap price to free cash
flow ratio (less than 15). A ratio under 15 indicates that the potential payout
yield is over 6.67%.
In addition, I've
only listed those stocks with a positive earnings growth outlook for the next
five years. That's in my view a method to filter only well-running business.
Despite the tight
criteria, the screen also produced some struggling companies like BHP or Rio
Tinto. I like them for sure but I do believe that they are not worth investing
while the commodity price still low or at multi-year lows.
Here are the
results from my screen...
5 High Yield Dividend Stocks With High Beta Ratios
While investing in
stocks with high dividends may be a good scheme to reinforce your loss-aversion
principle, playing the market to dodge volatility requires some extra cautious
steps. Beta measures the extent to which a fund’s return may be affected or how
much the price fluctuates owing to market conditions.
A high beta shows
normally how the performance of a single stock differs from the overall market.
The higher the ratio, the bigger the out- or underperformance develops.
It's great if you
like to be different, a star or a looser on the market.
Today I like to
show you those higher capitalized dividend stocks with beta ratios over 1.5 and
dividend yields over 5%. In order to keep the over levered stocks off the list,
I only observed stocks with a debt to equity ratio under 1.
14 stocks
fulfilled my criteria of which eight have a low forward P/E.

The Safest UK Dividend Stocks With Yields Over 4%
If you like to diversify your
portfolio, you should look at stocks abroad. The United Kingdom is a great
domicile for income orientated investors.
I've often written
about foreign high yielding dividend stocks. But you must keep an eye of the
additional currency risk of your investment.
Attached you can
find a visual list of more or less safe high yielding stocks from the FTSE 100.
It's in my view a great overview.

20 Cheap Foreign Dividend Stocks With Yields Over 4% And Solid Growth And Debt Fundamentals
Income-oriented investors, who focus only or primarily on the United States, are limiting themselves to one of the least dividend-rich stock markets to gain a secure income. This is not bad but abroad is also nice yields available which become higher when the dollar is falling one day. I believe that this will happen one day.
Attached, I've put a few high-quality dividend paying stocks from abroad that are listed in the United States. As of today, there are 886 foreign companies listed of which 398 pay a dividend. I cannot list of them here so I need to make a difference between them. I decided to list only stocks with a 2 billion+ market cap and a low forward P/E, expected earnings growth over 5% and solid debt ratios.
These stocks jumped into my eyes...
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....

19 Cheap High-Yielding Large Caps
Today I like to introduce those companies with a market capitalization over 10 billion that pay dividends over 5 percent yearly. In addition, the companies should have a forward P/E of less than 15.
Only 19 companies do so for the time beeing which you can find in the attached list. That's not much compared to the numbers of the recent years but should a result of the monetary money printing and low interest area.
Here are some of my top picks...

13 Cheap High Beta Basic Material Dividend Stocks
The whole sector is down 3.1 percent over the recent six months while the best sector gained 17.9 percent during the same period. So many stocks can be bought for a single P/E within the sector but the risk is still high.
Today I would like to proceed my monthly screening serial about high beta dividend stocks. The basic material sector has a huge base of stock ideas on this field. In order to get the best results, I need to increase my limitations like this:
- Market capitalization over USD 10 billion
- Forward P/E below 15
- 5Y future earnings per share growth over 15 percent yearly
- Beta ratio over 1
Thirteen companies fulfilled these criteria of which one is a High-Yield. All results have a current buy or better rating.
Ken Fisher's Biggest Dividend Stock Buys And His Latest Asset Allocation
Ken Fisher is an investment analyst and founder, chairman and CEO of Fisher Investments. In his asset management company he serves around USD 37.63 billion. His portfolio invested money on 474 companies; 48 of his stock holdings are completely new.
Ken has big investments within the technology sector
but financial shares and consumer stocks are also very important for his asset allocation. His latest portfolio transactions show that he strengthen his technology and commodity side. He bought Cisco and Apple for the tech side and BASF, RIO Tinto, Vale and BP for his commodity bets.
Below is a list of his latest and biggest dividend stock buys as well as his most important portfolio positions.

16 of his 20 top buys from the recent quarter pay dividends and 13 are currently
recommended to buy. He's a real large cap investor but has also some smaller companies. Summarized: Fisher has a very diversified portfolio.
The Cheapest Basic Material Dividend Stocks | 20 Low Priced Raw Material Shares
The analyst wrote that the current valuation is still 28 below the mid 90ies. The market is not cheap but not expensive. Other investors talk about a reasonable pricing. They trust the market environment and the FED stimulus and they pay finally the high price.
I’m a long-term growth investor and I’ve also realized that most of the high-quality stocks are too expensive to get a good return. With P/E’s of 20 you will definitely make no greater return. Sure, it could be possible that your investment got a 30 P/E in five years or so but that’s not investing, it’s speculation.
As you might have seen, I started more screens with cheap price ratios as variables. I still try to seek the cheapest opportunities from the market, but there are only a dozen from each sector. Today I like to discover some ideas from the basic material sector. I’m focused on large caps in my screen.
Basic material stocks are still very cheap. The 20 stocks with lowest valuation can be purchased for a multiple between 4 and 9 of expected earnings. That’s very low compared to my other screens. But you should also know that valuation is a question of belief – Do you trust the earnings forecasts?
Great Britain’s Best Yielding Large Cap ADRs With Cheap Price Ratios
I’ve started a new series of screens on my blog. The best yielding large cap stocks from foreign countries with cheap price ratios. The results from Asia and Latin America were inspirational for me but when I look deeper into the results, I realize that I could not build a deeper relationship to them. They are too far away from my research and their products and services are really unknown for me.
Today I like to come back to the core industrialized
countries by screening stocks from the United Kingdom with an U.S. listing. A full
list of the best yielding stocks from the FTSE can also be found in my weekly published
E-Book “Dividend
Weekly”.
My criteria are still the same: A market capitalization
over USD 10 billion with a low forward P/E of less than 15. Finally, the dividend
yield should be positive. In total, 16 of 38 U.K. stocks fulfilled these criteria.
Thirteen companies have a current buy or better rating.
Ex-Dividend Stocks: Best Dividend Paying Shares On March 06, 2013
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.
A full list of all stocks
with payment dates can be found here: Ex-Dividend Stocks March 06,
2013. In total, 50 stocks and
preferred shares go ex dividend - of which 17 yield more than 3 percent. The
