5 Dividend Shares At All-Time Highs

Stocks at All-Time-Highs originally published at “long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. I always look at stocks at new 52-Week Highs or All-Time-Highs. Those are the most wanted assets on the market.

Companies with a rising stock price show good signs of a healthy business and prospect a rosy future but it’s also dangerous to buy them at high P/E levels.

Think about Tesla or Apple, both hit week for week new highs over a long time and made many investors of the early stage investing era very rich but with a forward P/E of 83.87, Tesla is not cheap. You run into risk when you buy the shares at this price. The possibility to see the price you have paid never again is high. Apple however is valuated with a forward P/E of 12.55 and has a proven business model with a strong brand. Apple has definitely a lower risk profile than Tesla.

Recently, 14 companies hit a new All-Time-High. Five of the stocks pay dividends. You can find them in the attached list of stocks at new All-Time-Highs. One of the biggest companies is the oil and gas drilling and exploration stock, ConocoPhillips.

Ex-Dividend Stocks: Best Dividend Paying Shares On August 20, 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, 38 stocks go ex dividend - of which 12 yield more than 3 percent. The average yield amounts to 4,46%.

Here is the sheet of the best yielding, higher capitalized ex-dividend stocks:

26 Stocks Raised Dividends Over The Past Week

Stocks with dividend hikes from last week originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Dividend growth matters and has significant influence to your asset strategy. A higher dividend in the future also lifts your passive income from stock investing. It’s a good method to boost your total return.

Out there are many studies, telling you that nearly half of the average return on the stock market is responsible to dividend payments. That’s a huge number in my view but what if we are trying to find the best dividend stocks, stocks that are better than the average? I think about companies that pay in ten years more dividends to you than you have ever paid for the whole investment.

I strongly believe that this strategy will deliver good returns. The only problem is to discover these growth stocks that are willing to give you huge amounts of money back.

However, one way to get some ideas of the greatest dividend growth stocks is to look at the current lists of dividend growers. On my blog I publish on a regular basis these lists.

Last week, 26 companies announced a higher dividend. I’ve published all stocks with dividend growth from the recent week in the attached dividend list for you. In average, stocks from the list of the latest dividend growth stocks have increased their dividend payments by 25.49 percent.

Five of the results have a high yield of more than five percent. Analysts and brokerage firms recommend 16 of the latest dividend growth stocks.

9 Stocks With Yields Over 10% And Buy Or Better Rating

Stocks with very high dividend yields and buy or better recommendations originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Some of my readers like you have a huge desire for income stocks. Not enough, they should have a good payout in terms of initial yields and offer you a great opportunity with price hikes.

It’s hard to find the perfect dividend stock that delivers you a great return at a low risk and the higher the initial yield, the bigger the risk seems.

Today I would like to introduce you some of the highest yielding stocks at the stock market with current buy or better ratings by brokerage firms.

At the market are around a hundred stocks with double-digit dividend yields but most of them, 78 percent, are small capitalized. I don’t like stocks with a small market cap because of the low diversification and high sensitivity when trading volume comes into the stock. In my current screen, I observe only stocks with a USD 2 billion or more capitalization. Below is a list of the 9 highest yielding stocks with a buy or better rating.
