68 Top Dividend Stocks With Ex-Dividend Date In August 2013

Monthly high yielding shares researched by “long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. Who don’t love it to receive money from its investments? For sure it’s boring to get a one percent yield and wait over a decade to see the dividend grow to a yield on cost of three percent.

Isn’t it better when you start with a yield on cost of three percent or even five percent and see your dividend grow? In the end you will have a yield on your acquisition amount in the double-digit range.

Every month, I create a small list about interesting high yielding stocks with ex-dividend date for the next month. I think it could bring you some values to see what companies pay you cash next month with an attractive equity story.

As result, I found 68 stocks with an average dividend yield of 4.77 percent. Three stocks have a double-digit yield and fourteen a high yield below 10 percent. 24 stocks from the results have a buy or better recommendation.

20 Basic Material Dividend Stocks With Top Yields And Low Volatility

Basic material dividend stocks with low betas and large market capitalization originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". When I buy stocks I ever take a look at the risk fundamentals of a company. Beside the market capitalization, the beta ratio is a meaningful ratio. The ratio shows investors how volatile a stock is compared to the overall market. A beta value of 1.2 means: The stock has a 20 percent higher volatility than the market. I use this tool to identify the underlying risks of a business model. For sure, it’s not perfect but a good first step to evaluate the risk situation.

Today I like to run my screen for the safest basic material stocks. These are my criteria:

- Market Capitalization over USD 10 billion

- Beta ratio below 1

Linked are the 20 best yielding stocks. 14 of them have a current buy or better recommendation and five are high-yields. Oil and gas companies are the dominating category.
