Investing in companies that regularly raise dividends provides security in an uncertain market and means higher returns ahead.
ReplyDeleteWhen looking to build a long-term portfolio of stocks that pay high dividends, investors usually come up with a mix of stocks that either have high dividend yields or high dividend growth rates. It is difficult to find good companies that have both. This means that there is often a choice to be made. All else equal, should one invest in the company that has that enticing high dividend yield, but a low dividend growth rate, or does one exude patience and invest in the company with a relatively low yield, but a high dividend growth rate?
If you look closely at past performance you will notice that most dividend stock move up just before the dividend ex-date.
DeleteWhy not just buy before the ex-date, take the profit equal or greater than the upcoming dividend. Sell for profit and move on to the next dividend stock.
It is a little twist on the dividend capture strategy.... but a little more profitable.
