These Military Stocks Profiting Mostly From Wars

Since the conclusion of World War II, the United States and a number of Western European nations have maintained extremely costly military industrial complexes — both in peacetime and during the numerous other conflicts since. 

The United States is far and away the largest defense market, and U.S.-based companies disproportionately comprise the top global arms dealers.

Global military sales from the 100 largest dealers totaled $401 billion in 2014, down by 1.5% — but still substantially higher than in 2002 — according to the latest estimates released by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI).

Today I like to show you those military and defense stocks that offer the most values for investors.

Each of the attached results pays a dividend. The results are ranked by market capitalization. There is a huge range of stocks available.


Here are the best choices in my view...

20 Most Recommended Industrial Dividend Stocks | Top Stock Buy List

Industrial goods stocks with highest buy rating originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". Today I like to finalize my January posts of the highest recommended stocks from the eight most important sectors of the economy. Industrial goods are the latest sector to discover.

The industrial sector is a small one with 359 related companies and only 172 of them are dividend stocks. The average dividend yield amounts to 2.01 and the P/E ratio has a value of 24.59 in average.


I personally have only a small share of industrial stocks in my private portfolios. The main reason is that the sector has many cyclic companies and stocks from the sector are often very capital intensive. They need huge amounts of money to keep the business running and growing. As a result, dividend payments are low.


But there are also some great growth stories. I own shares of United Technologies, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon. My biggest position is General Electric on which I have 104% unrealized gains. Not enough, I have around 10 -20 additional stocks on my watch list.


Below is a small compilation of the 20 highest recommended dividend stocks with a market capitalization over USD 2 billion. What do you think about the list of the most recommended industrial goods dividend stocks? Do you own some of them? Please let me know and leave a comment in the box below.

Now, we are close to year-end and I like to discover some growth stock picks for next year 2013. Today, I focus on stocks from the industrial goods sector (354 shares available).

Sixteen companies fulfilled the above mentioned criteria. Eight of them pay dividends and fourteen have a current buy or better recommendation. The two best represented industries within the screening results are aerospace/defense and industrial equipments.
