Best Dividend Paying Ex-Dividend Shares On January 08, 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.

A full list of all stocks with payment dates can be found here: Ex-Dividend Stocks January 08, 2013. In total, 15 stocks and preferred shares go ex dividend - of which 8 yield more than 3 percent. The average yield amounts to 3.16%.

Mattel (NASD:MAT) | New Stock Holding Of The Dividend Yield Passive Income Portfolio


Last Friday I put Mattel shares into the dividend yield passive income portfolio (DYPI). I bought 40 shares of the toymaker who generates 67.72 percent of net sales in Americans countries.

Mattel has a market capitalization of 12.50 billion and is the dominating and leading company within the toys and games industry. Mattel designs, manufactures, and markets various toy products. Its products comprise fashion dolls and accessories, vehicles and play sets, and games and puzzles.

The current P/E ratio of the company is 15.12 and the expected price to earnings ratio amounts to 13.11. The dividend yield has a value of 3.4%. This met my criteria of yield and fair price. The company is also growing. Earnings are expected to grow by 17.42% this year, 9.88% next year and finally 9.05% for the next five years.

Mattel is the little bit higher valuated than rival Hasbro but Mattel has lower debt ratios than the second biggest industry player Hasbro. So I think both valuations are not far away.

The 40 shares will give us an additional dividend income of 50 bucks per year. The full stake costs $1,458 which represents now around 1.5 percent of the full DYPI-Portfolio.

The current portfolio yield is 3.52 percent. As of now I invested $20,440 into stocks within the recent four month or so. The average yield of the portfolio is at 3.59%.

Since I funded the portfolio virtually with 100,000, the whole net worth is up 1.83% since October 2012. This is an underperformance against the broad market but as I told earlier, it could happen because I buy slowly stocks and if the market goes sharply up I will loose performance.

I don’t care about current market sentiments. In situations of highly valuated markets my strategy could fail in the short-run. Not enough, I make stock picking in order to avoid expensive stock buys.

I try to put every Friday one company into the DYPI-Portfolio. As of now I have around $80,300 of free cash for additional stock acquisitions. I plan to close the DYPI-Portfolio by the end of the year 2013 with around 50-70 stock holdings. The estimated dividend income should be around $3,000 – $4,000. This should be realistic in my opinion.

The strategy is not to make fast money or to get quick rich. If you like to make fast money by stock trading you should read other blogs, maybe something about options, derivatives or penny stocks.

Trading of dividend stocks will not make you soon rich - I have not even reached. But I found out that it is possible to realize a double-digit return over a long period of time. Over the recent 10 years I have achieved this performance for my own real trading accounts. Read more in my about page.

A 8% return would double your net worth in around 10 years. 3% or more could be generated by dividends alone. That's called the dividend yield ratio. 

My real accounts have a current yield of around 3%. That’s not high but I have real problems to find high-quality stocks that are fairly priced. If you know some, please let me know. I ever look for great investment opportunities and share my ideas with all my readers on the internet.

Not Enough, I have yields on cost of 5%-7%. When I bought the stocks they paid only 3% in dividends but my target investments increased the dividends payments very soon over the upcoming years and now I have a yearly return which is twice as high the amount when I bought the stock.

Do you own Mattel shares? What do you think about the company? Would you buy them now? Please let me know and leave a comment in the box below.

Monthly Dividend Paying Stocks | 7 High-Yield REITs To Consider


Best monthly dividend paying real estate investment trusts originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". Most of us love the idea of investing money into dividend stocks and getting paid by the investments. 

If you have enough money like me you can live from your dividend payments alone. Great second irregular incomes are capital gains which are nearly twice of the amount of my dividend income.

I also wasn’t born rich but I ever tried to find the best investments, the best places to put my money in order to realize a good return. A high yield is not the only rule you need to consider. You also must be disciplined by saving money. In your first years of investing, savings will be your number one source for reinvestment because your dividend cash is not high enough to grow.

Today, I like to show you some of the best yielding stocks with a yield of more than five percent that pay dividends on a monthly basis. Some of them are very risky and offer a double-digit yield. But if you like to see a monthly dividend check, you should take a look at the list below. Three of the results are currently recommended to buy.
