Healthcare Dividend Stocks With Accelerated Growth Researched By Dividend Yield - Stock, Capital, Investment. Growth stocks are wonderful especially if they are at the beginning of their growth path. Growth normally creates shareholder value and if the company doesn’t need much money to finance the growth, you can benefit already within the early stage.
I screened the healthcare sector by stocks with a recent earnings growth of more than ten percent (past five years). In order to catch up only those stocks with a gaining earnings growth, I observed only stocks with a quarter over quarter sales and earnings per share growth of more than 10 percent. Exactly twelve companies fulfilled these criteria. All of them are recommended to buy.
