3 Solid Dividend Stocks With Buy Rating And Yields Over 3%

It's been a great time to be invested in the stock market recently. The S&P 500 is up 22% during the past 12 months and more than 83% in the past five years. 

Even more, with dividends from the S&P 500 automatically reinvested during the past five years, the market index is up more than 100% during this period. 

 But in a market like this, it's getting increasingly difficult to find solid dividend stocks, particularly dividend stocks with dividend yields over 3%. But there are still some hanging around. Here are a few stocks...

6 High-Yielding Dividend Achievers With Good Financial Ratios

I've often said that dividend stocks are the foundation of a great retirement portfolio -- and for good reason. For starters, companies that pay dividends usually have a long history of profitability and a sound long-term outlook. 

A business that doesn't have a clear path to growth typically isn't going to pay a dividend. In other words, buying dividend stocks often means buying into high-quality, profitable companies with long histories of success.

Secondly, dividend stocks can help hedge the stock market's inevitable moves lower. Since 1950, the S&P 500 has corrected lower by at least 10% (when rounded to the nearest digit) on 35 occasions.

Owning dividend stocks is a great way to help hedge against these market swoons. As an added bonus, since dividend stocks tend to attract long-term investors, they can sometimes also be far less volatile during corrections.

Lastly, dividend stocks give you the ability to take advantage of compounding over time by reinvesting your payout back into more shares. Doing so allows your ownership in a business to grow, as well as your corresponding payout. Compounding is a tactic some of the smartest money managers use to increase the value of their funds over time.

But some of the best dividend stocks can be found floating well below investors' radars. Attached you will find three high-yield bargain dividend stocks you've probably been overlooking this fall. Every of the results has a dividend yield over 4% and a debt-to-equity below one.

These are the results...

29 Undervalued Dividend Stocks

Each company has a dividend yield of at least 3% and the ability to increase payouts.

With dividend stocks hot this year, some market experts are advising investors to be cautious and selective. 

Identifying companies with room to raise dividends significantly, rather than focusing on finding the highest yields, might be your best way forward.

So we decided to take a deep dive into the S&P 1500 Composite Index, the S&P 400 Mid-Cap Index MID and the S&P Small-Cap 600 Index in order to identify possible dividend-stock bargains in every sector.

Here are all 29 stocks that passed the screen, broken down by sector:

6 Cheap Dividend Achiever With Yields Over 4%

Dividend stocks can be one of the best ways for individual investors to supplement income or even build wealth over the long term, and finding high quality companies with stocks that yield higher than average rates can accelerate that wealth building portfolio. The trick is finding quality stocks that can keep those payments going over time.

This article tries to discover a number of high quality stocks with big yields for income seeking investors. My focus was on long-term dividend growth and the limit time-line is 10 years. Each of the stocks must have increased dividends by more than 10 years without interruption.

In addition, the forward P/E must be under 15 while yields are over 4%. Exactly 6 stocks fulfilled these similar criteria.

20 Attactive Low Volatility Consumer Goods Stocks

When I'm thinking about how to arrange a portfolio, I think there is a uniquely human aspect to the process.

The ideal dividend portfolio depends on the risk factors an investor feels comfortable accepting. 

After the year is over, any investor can easily see which companies delivered the best returns, but when the period is starting, the goal is for an investor is to be carrying a portfolio that meets their individual objectives.

9 Must-Have Stocks That Should Become Bigger During The Next Recession

These 29 Stocks Hiked Their Dividend Payments Last Week

Stocks with dividend hikes from last week originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. I strongly believe that dividend growth investing will deliver good returns. As of now, I quadrupled my net worth by trading dividend growth stocks and boosted my passive income to a five-figure annual salary.

It’s great to see how everybody can build a portfolio of stocks that is growing and becomes better over the time. It feels like you are a real investor. Not playing with money or spending it. You invest it. You watch your assets and observe how your portfolio companies develop over the time. Some stocks will disappoint you and fail for sure. But if you have a good diversification of at least 50 shares or more, your average return will be great.

However, back to the current dividend growth stocks from last week. On my blog long-term-investments.blogspot.com, I publish on a regular basis lists of the latest dividend growers.

Last week, 29 companies announced a higher dividend. I’ve published all stocks with dividend growth from the recent week in the attached dividend list for you. You can also find a compilation of price and yield ratios there. In average, stocks from the list of the latest dividend growth stocks have increased their dividend payments by 17.03 percent.

Four of the results have a high yield of more than five percent and three yielding over 10%. Analysts and brokerage firms recommend 14 of the latest dividend growth stocks.

Consumer Goods Stocks With Highest YTD Performance And Cheap Price Ratios

Consumer goods dividend stocks with highest year-to-date performance originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Consumer dividend stocks are my favorite investments when I think about how to make money on the stock market. I prefer those stocks because of the low cyclic they have. Most of them generate stable cash flows and pay good dividends as well as buy own shares back. Not to forget: They still have possibilities to grow in a developed market.

Today I would close my monthly screening serial of the best performing dividend stocks from several sectors with the consumer goods sector. These are the latest articles of the serial:


The 20 best performing dividend stocks from the consumer sector with a market capitalization over USD 200 million gained from 44.89 percent to 112.16 percent this year. The best performing non dividend paying stock is more an industrial stock than a consumer company. It’s the electric vehicle producer Tesla. The company’s stock price quadrupled since the start of the year. The top dividend payer is the multi-marketing level company Nu Skin Enterprises.

Despite the strong stock price increase, 16 of the top 20 performing sector dividend stocks still have a buy or better rating.

17 Highest Dividend Paying Processed & Packaged Goods Stocks

The highest yielding processed and packaged goods stocks originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". One of my favorite industries within the consumer goods sector is the processed and packaged goods industry. Only 35 companies have a relationship to the industry and 17 of them pay dividends.

I love the industry because of the high number of low beta stocks. Foods and consumer goods are daily consumption products with essential functions. Consumers don’t stop washing or cooking if the economy is going down. Sure if they lose their job they need to look for cheaper products or scout for less services and quality but they don’t stop consuming. That’s also the reason why I love the processed and packaged goods industry. Car purchases will be deferred but toilet paper and deodorant buys not in the same way.


Linked is a small list of the highest dividend paying processed and packaged goods stocks. 12 of them have a current buy or better recommendation.
