28 Latest Dividend Growth Stocks Compiled In One List

When you purchase individual stocks, risk is inherent. Sometimes bad things happen to good stocks. Eventually, every investor will hold a stock that falls out of favor and endures a double-digit decline. Understanding this from the onset makes it easier to deal with. To minimize the risk of significant declines, your core portfolio should focus on blue-chip dividend growth stocks.

Listed below are companies that have recently elected to raise their payout and yield by increasing their cash dividends to shareholders. In total, there were 28 companies with higher dividend payments.

Each month, I’ll be sharing with you, for free, the top dividend growth stocks for the US market. You can find them in the list below:

5 Buy Rated Dividend Stocks With Fast Rising Payment Outputs

The U.S. interest rates are at historic lows and, at best, only modest interest rate increases can be expected next year. As such, there is hardly any option for income investors. 

With Bonds and Treasury bills yielding less than 2% over a 1-5 year time horizon, stocks with assured dividend growth are perhaps one of the few bright spots for investors. 

As even the most imprudent investor knows, dividend stocks are historically less volatile than non-dividend stocks and are proven outperformers over the long term. 

These stocks are a safe bet to create wealth as dividends generally act as a hedge against economic uncertainty. Moreover, these stocks provide downside protection by offering sizable yields on a regular basis. 

A lot of investors consider dividend-paying companies as "boring." Weighed against the high-flying small cap companies, whose volatility seems to excite them, dividend-paying stocks are typically more mature and conventional. Although this may be uninteresting for some, the combination of a consistent dividend payout and dividend growth can be something to get excited about.

Below I've attached some good looking stocks that have grown dividends in the recent 5 years by more than 35 percent and having a current strong buy or buy rating.

Here are the results:

13 Industrials With Low Dividend Payouts And Little Debt To Boost Shareholder Values

Industrial dividend stocks with low dividend payout ratios and small debt figures originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Every corporation with small amounts of debt has a better flexibility to grow faster than other stocks with a similar size in the same industry. Corporate debt is a major source to boost growth without issuing new shares.

I’m a real dividend growth investor and I ever look for stocks that pay in 10 years a dividend that is twice as big as today. That’s the reason why I always look beside the growth possibilities also at the dividend payout and debt figures. A company with little debt, high cash and low dividend payouts has much to offer for current shareholders.


Today I would like to screen the industrial sector by stocks with low debt figures and dividend payouts. I selected only those stocks with a 20 percent dividend payout and a debt to equity ratio of less than 0.2.


Only thirteen stocks fulfilled these two criteria of which ten have a current buy or better ratio. The results are dominated by lower capitalized stocks. Only five have a market cap over a billion dollar.


11 Stocks With A Growing Dividend From Last Week

Stocks with dividend hikes from last week originally published at “long-term-investments.blogspot.com”. Summer days are coming and the financial market goes to hibernation.

Last week was the weakest week in terms of dividend growth. Only 11 companies announced a dividend hike within the recent week and additional three funds followed to hike dividends. Five of them are yielding over three percent and eight have a current buy or better rating.

The biggest stocks with recent dividend growth are Caterpillar, the retail discounter Target as well as the medical instruments and supplies company CR Bard.

Best Dividend Paying Ex-Dividend Shares On December 17, 2012

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 ex-dividend date and payment dates can be found here: Ex-Dividend Stocks on December 17, 2012. In total, 18 stocks and preferred shares go ex dividend - of which 9 yield more than 3 percent. The average yield amounts to 5.21%.
