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?

12 Higher Capitalized Stocks With Yields Over 10% You Might Like...

Puhhh...this interest environment is boring. You need a huge amount of money to receive a low yield. That's crazy but you can Thank Ben Bernanke and the current Fed Chairman Janet Yellen.

6 Dividend Grower With The Best Price For Earnings Growth Ratio

5 Higher Yielding Growth Picks With Acceptable Price Ratios

I've recently published an article about stocks that combined dividends and growth. The article introduced five picks with attractive fundamentals but the yield ratios were really low.

Today I would like to fix this lack by showing you some higher yielding stocks with great earnings growth forecasts. 

In addition, the valuation could not be cheap because of the higher growth rates but they should be acceptable. These are my criteria in detail:

- Dividend Yield - Over 4%

- Payout Ratio - Under 100%

- Sales growth Past 5 years - Over 10%

- EPS growth Past 5 years - Over 10%

- EPS growth next 5 years - Over 10%

- Trailing P/E - Under 25

- Forward P/E - Under 20

13 High-Yield Large Capitalized Stocks With Buy Recommendation

Stocks with high dividend yields and buy ratings originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Today I would like to give you an update of the higher capitalized stocks with buy ratings by brokerage firms. I personally prefer stocks with lower yields and better growth perspectives because I don’t need high yields to live-off.

Only 13 stocks fulfilled these two criteria but the most of the results have an extraordinary high debt. It’s very risky to buy stocks with large amounts of debt because debt owners got money before share owners. If there should develop some trouble, the dividends must keep flat or needed to reduce.

Stocks from the basic material sector as well as telecoms are the dominating categories. But there are also some good names on the list like Williams Partners or Altria.

15 High Yielding Stocks Close To New 52-Week Highs

High Yield Large Caps quite below new 52-Week Highs originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. I’m not a momentum trader who seeks the hottest investment opportunities over the short run. I am looking for high quality dividend paying stocks that hike cash payments to shareholders each year and plan to continue this for decades. For sure, there are not many corporate that can manage this need. Only 15 stocks or so have achieved to rise dividends year over year for more than 50 years.

I also look at stocks at new highs. I believe that it’s a good sign when the stock is near all time highs or close to new 52-Week Highs. Something must run well right and investors gift trust to the corporate. You should definitely care about a solid valuation and avoid it to buy stocks with higher P/E’s.

Today I would like to present you some higher capitalized High Yields that are a few percentage points below new 52-Week Highs. It should be possible that these stocks can hit new highs in the near future.

Only fifteen stocks with more than USD 2 billion market capitalization are traded close to new highs and twelve of them got a current buy or better rating by investment firms. Two companies have a double-digit dividend yield.

Latest Dividend Growth: 19 Stocks With A Higher Dividend Payment

Stocks with dividend hikes from last week originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Dividend growth slows a little bit. Last week, only 19 companies announced a higher dividend. I’ve published all stocks with dividend growth from the recent week in the attached dividend list for you.

You can also find a compilation of price and yield ratios in this post. In average, stocks from the list of the latest dividend growth stocks have increased their dividend payments by 30.57 percent.

Four of the results have a high yield of more than five percent and one stock yields over 10%. Analysts and brokerage firms recommend 10 of stocks with recent dividend boosts.

13 Cheap High Beta Basic Material Dividend Stocks

Cheap high beta dividend stocks from the basic material sector originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. The basic material sector is under fire. Nobody wants to go long on raw material producer or related industries. The fear of a slowing growth in China with the result of cheaper commodity prices is still aware.

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.

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.

The Latest Big Dividend Stock Buys From James Barrow

James Barrow’s latest dividend stock buys and his portfolio originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. 

James Barrow is a relatively unknown fund managers but he has big influence on Wall-Street. His assets under management exceeded the 55 billion mark in his investment firm Barrow, Hanley, Mewhinney & Strauss. This money was spread on 159 stocks of which 7 were completely new. James follows a value-oriented investment strategy.

James is a real dividend large cap lover. Nearly all of his latest 20 big stock acquisitions pay dividends. In addition, James is a much diversified guy. None of his stakes is extremely overweighed. The biggest position is the tobacco company Philip Morris and has a portfolio share of 3.5 percent while the 10th biggest stock holding weights only at 1.8 percent.

Compared to other fund managers, his performance is also weak in the short term. Over the past three years, the excess return was only 3.3 percent in total. His five-year advance is a bit better with 14 percent excess gain but over 10 years, his performance is 27.8 percent weaker than the S&P 500. Over a very long period of 15 years, he beat the market by 49.4 percent excess gain.

17 Cheap Growth Stocks From The Basic Material Sector With Current Dividend Payments

Basic material dividend stocks with highest expected growth and low price ratios originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". Good stocks to buy are hard to find. But what are good stocks?

Good investment indicators

Primarily it’s a question of your investment philosophy or screening criteria. I am focused on dividend stocks with great yields, strong market positions and low limitations to grow. I also invest into stocks with no yields or low dividend payments.

Don’t look at the yield alone

The dividend yield is only an expression and should never be a single investment criterion. I know so many people who only look at the P/E ratio and the dividend yield and argue that the stock is cheap at a P/E below 10. That’s too easy. If the company has no debt, you should look the enterprise value.

Growth is the value driver

More important is growth. If a company doubles every 3 years sales and earnings, it’s normal that the stock is highly valuated. Stock valuation is a very complex area.

Today I like to screen some opportunities from the basic material sector. 595 stocks are available with a relationship to the raw material sector – nearly 300 of them pay dividends. The average sector P/E ratio amounts to 11.08 at a yield of 2.98 percent.

I screened large capitalized stocks with very high expected earnings per share growth for the next five years (over 10 percent) and a low forward P/E ratio of less than 15. Seventeen stocks fulfilled my criteria of which twelve are currently recommended to buy. Two High-Yields are below the results.

Best Basic Material Dividend Stock Buy Picks For 2013

Basic material stocks became popular with the increase in raw material prices due to the strong growth of China from the recent year. Not only directly commodity mining stocks exploded, also supplier of mining equipment started to boom. The basic material sector is a small investment field with around 600 listed companies. I made a list of the best stocks picks for next year. My criteria are:

- Forward P/E under 15

- Past 5Y Sales growth over 10 percent

- Earnings per share growth for the next five years over 10 percent

- Operating Margin over 10 percent

- Market capitalization above USD 10 billion

Nine higher capitalized stocks remained the screening criteria of which eight are currently recommended to buy. The results are dominated by stocks from the oil & gas equipment and services industry. I am not sure if these picks could be the best growth driver for your private wealth. Sure, America is expected to have a current energy boom due to shale gas.

Best Stocks With Dividend Growth | 32 Stocks Announced A Dividend Hike Last Week

Stocks with biggest dividend hikes from last week; originally published at Dividend Yield – Stock, Capital, Investment. Here is a current list of companies that have announced a dividend increase within the recent week. In total, 32 stocks and funds raised dividends of which 17 have a dividend growth of more than 10 percent. The average dividend growth amounts to 24.26 percent. Below the results are six high-yields and eighteen companies are currently recommended to buy.

My favorites are low leveraged stocks. I believe that those companies could give investors a solid chance of further dividend hikes. If not, they could boost growth without capital increases. I do not own any stocks from the screen. I'm annoyed not to buy some Disney shares. Last year, I bought stocks from its rivals Hasbro and Mattel because of the higher yield and lower P/E. They performed well but Disney beats this return despite the fact that the current dividend yield is still low and below the two percent mark.
