6 Stocks With New Billion Share Buyback Announcements

I love dividends, growth and also share buybacks. 

Good companies pay half of its net income via dividends to shareholders and the second half should be invested in own shares in order to increase the share of all investors of the company. It's a very tax-efficent way to create shareholder value if the corporate don't overpay it's own intrinsic value.

Today would like to present you six of the latest stocks with over a billion in refreshed or new share buyback programs. The amounts are limited for the next five years or so.

12 Healthcare Dividend Stocks With High Potential To Boost Growth And Hike Dividends

Healthcare dividend stocks with low payout ratios and small debt figures originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. I love the combination of low debt with little payout ratios. 

The debt situation is one of the most important issues in corporate finance. It also expresses the ability to grow sales and earnings by enlarging the balance sheet with bank loans.

Only a low leveraged corporate has potential to boost sales without taking new investors into the boat that dilute the current earnings per share.

Today I would like to start an article serial about low leveraged stocks from several sectors with currently small dividend payouts. I believe it’s good to see what companies have the biggest potential to give shareholders huge amounts of money back in the near future and believe me, the tech sector is not the only place to be.


My criteria are a low dividend payout ratio of less than 20 percent as well as a debt-to-equity ratio under 0.5. Only twelve stocks fulfilled these very tight defined criteria.


One result is a High-Yield and nine stocks are recommended to buy or better. Most of the results come from the medical appliances & supplies or equipment industry.

17 High Momentum Healthcare Dividend Stocks

Healthcare dividend stocks with highest beta ratios originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. You know that I am a conservative investor and try to minimize my risk.

This strategy is necessary if you have a larger amount of money to take care of or you begin to cry when you lose 10 percent on your book value. The second disadvantage is that you lose performance in a strong up moving market. 

Since 2009, there were nearly no bigger corrections at the market but with low beta and safe haven stocks, your performance would be only half of the return from the markets. What you need to get a push for your portfolio is a high beta stock. I don’t recommend buying them because it’s a definitely riskier strategy and nobody knows when the market turns into a bearish mood.

However, let’s take a look at the high fly momentum stocks from the healthcare sector. Those are stocks with the highest beta ratio from the sector. They have a beta between 1 and 2. With focus on the dividend paying stocks, only 17 stocks from the healthcare sector pay a dividend and being correlated with the market by a factor of up to 2.

One High-Yield is below the results and 16 have a current buy or better rating by brokerage firms.
