6 Dividend Champ's Expected To Grow Earnings By Over 15% For The Next Half Decade

Hey guys, I hope you have a great weekend like I do. I'm sitting in front of my pc and watch on the list of the best dividend paying stock in the United States. 

I'm impressed that Coca Cola and Procter have now yields above the three percent mark. Both are definitely the kings of the Dividend Champions and should be used as minimum yield. If you like to add stocks with a higher risk, debt or lower growth and diversification, you should add a premium yield when you buy those stocks.

Today I've a small focus on growth, yes; I've sorted the 105 Dividend Champions by the highest expected earnings per share growth for the next five years. All of the attached six results have a higher EPS-growth of 15 percent; a huge number in my view. They are a little off the main street but still solid valuated.

6 Dividend Stocks Warren Buffett Added Recently To His $100 Billion Portfolio

Do you like Dividends? I do and you should love them too. 

Dividends are paybacks to shareholders, money that you can use for reinvestments or your daily spendigs. 

But the dividend is not everything you need to look on when you think about investments. 

It doesn’t make sense to buy a high yielding stock with high debt and no growth perspectives. Inflation will destroy your investment in the end.

One very successful investor who has been focused on dividend growth investing is Warren Buffett. I don't recommend covering his investments but Warren has a great idea base for us normal investors from that you can also benefit.

His latest SEC-Filling shows that he has assets which are worth over $100 billion. Around 43 percent of his money is currently invested within the financial sector.

Below is a small overview about his latest dividend buys. Seven of his ten most recent purchases pay a dividend. The best yielding pick was General Electric with a 3.42 yield.

The biggest impact had the Goldman Sachs (GS) transactions with a 2.14 percent change result to his portfolio. 

Nearly of Warren's latest buys are cheaply priced measured by a forward P/E of less than 15.

4 stocks still dominate his asset allocation: Wells Fargo (WFC), Coca Cola (KO), American Express (AXP) and finally IBM (IBM). Each of them has a 10+ percent share in his portfolio. It's a clear signal to buy only those stocks that underlying business you understand.

8 Dividend Growth Stocks On The Sweet Spot

Out there happening very exciting moments on the market. Due to the recent stock market crash, stocks look a little bit more attractive than weeks before while the total number of potential dividend growers rise steadily.

The fantastic economic recovery of the recent years was the the most important item which helped to grow the total number of stocks with more than 5 years of consecutive dividend growth to 488! I expect that we would hit the 500 mark by the end of this year.

It's great to see that we've more and more opportunities in the dividend growth investing field but if we look at the valuations on the market, we definitely notice that it's still hard to find real bargains.

Some stocks are too expensive, others are cheap but those companies release falling earnings and sales figures or they are overloaded with debt. What we need are long-term dividend growth stocks on the sweet spot.

After the recent sell-off on the market, I screened my database by stocks with a current dividend yield over 3 percent and a low forward P/E of less than 15. In addition, the expected earnings should grow by at least 5 percent (analyst predictions), year by year for the next five fiscals.

Around 30 companies fulfilled these criteria at the moment. I try to highlight some of the best ideas. Below are 8 stocks, sorted by market capitalization.

5 Dividend Stocks With Fresh Billion Share Buyback Programs

Dividend growth is a fantastic value driver for your private wealth. But there are more possibilities to create directly shareholder values. Beside dividends, there is a way to give money back via share repurchase programs.

Recently, I wrote an article about stocks with the most recent billion share buyback programs on the market. Today I would like to expand the list by adding stocks that have announced to spend billions by buying back own shares.


Three names are not included in the list because they don't pay dividends. EBay, Valeant Pharmaceuticals International and Check Point Software Technologies are those stocks.


8 Impressive Dividend Aristocrats With Good Yields For 2014

The year 2014 recently started and all investors must place their bets for the full year. Of course, stock investing is no game and each investor can buy and sell stocks each day but long-term orientated investors have a longer orientated view. They like to invest money into growing stocks with solid fundamentals. 

Due to corporate growth, higher sales and earnings will hike the company at a new level and investors should benefit from these effects by receiving higher dividends.

One index that covers stocks with the longest history in rising dividends is the Dividend Aristocrats Index. Members of the index have achieved to hike its payments to shareholders over more than 25 consecutive years. That's a great number in my view.

Below are 8 of the actual most impressive Dividend Aristocrats with attractive dividend yields.
