Europe has a better investing
environment as the United States. The ECB currently runs a 60 billion monthly
quantitative easing program for the next months and a rising dollar makes European
companies much cheaper than years before.
The big risk is
still an ongoing decreasing euro due to problems in the Ukraine and debt
negotiations in Greece. If the country should leave the Euro zone, other
countries could follow but in the end, I believe that makes the area stronger.
A bigger risk is to keep overspending countries with high debt in the Euro zone.
Today I run a
market screener about European dividend stocks with simple criteria:
- Positive
Dividend Yield
- Over 2 Billion
Market Cap
- EPS growth for
the next half-decade above 5 percent yearly
- Low forward P/E
- Debt-to-equity
under 1
13 stocks
fulfilled the above mentioned criteria of which two stocks are High-Yields.
