19 Cheaply Valuated Stocks With Forces To Become The Next Top Dividend Grower On The Market

Dividend growth stocks on the move to become a real long-term dividend grower originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Dividend growth is a great and powerful tool for all normal and small investors to participate in a honest and passive way from the economic success of a corporate.

America is definitely the country with the highest amount of stocks that share profits with shareholders fairly. Believe me; I've seen thousands of companies all around the world where investors get robbed by management teams, lead investors or even the government.

My investment focus is on dividend growth stocks but over the recent months and years, we all have seen a significant increase in price multiples. Most of the best long-term dividend growers are valuated with a P/E of 20 or more. If you pay such high ratios, you will definitely not get a good inflation and risk-adjusted return over the long-run if you invest in a slow growing business.

Today, I try to find additional dividend stocks that are near to achieve a consecutive dividend growth history of at least five years.

Around 150 stocks are available with 4 years of dividend growth. With the next hike they could become a real Dividend Challenger. My hope is that some of them are cheaper than the older and well-established stocks.

You can find attached a list of all large capitalized stocks with a low forward price to earnings ratio of less than 15. Only 19 companies fulfilled these criteria of which nearly all (17 shares) are recommended to buy.

15 Stocks With Latest Dividend Growth

Stocks with dividend hikes from last week originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Only 15 stocks announced last week to hike dividends. The average dividend growth amounts to 26.37 percent.

Two big names are on the list. They are Philip Morris and Franklin Resources. The biggest dividend increases come from Axiall, Royal Caribbean and Sasol. All three plan to double or more dividends.

It’s good to see that the dividend growth goes into a next round. Dividend growth shows that the management team is optimistic about the company’s future and they like to give money back to shareholders they don’t need in this environment.

11 Cheap High Beta Consumer Goods Dividend Stocks

Cheap high beta dividend stocks from the consumer goods sector originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. You might know that I really love stocks from the consumer goods sector. They offer a very good risk profile for income seeking investors with a desire for future dividend growth. The problem is that they are also highly valuated. This was one of the reasons why I needed to purchase more and more stocks from other sectors like industrials and healthcare stocks.

I’m not worried about this because with every single stock purchase of other industries and sectors, my diversification rises. The second negative item in terms of consumer good stocks is that most of them are low beta stocks. If you like to make money in a strong upside market, you lose performance with low beta stocks.

This is the reason why I discovered some high beta stocks with attractive valuation figures this month in an article serial. If you are interested, here are the links to the articles:

· 15 Cheap High Beta Industrial Dividend Stocks

· 13 Cheap High Beta Basic Material Dividend Stocks

· 18 High Beta Services Dividend Paying Stocks

· 9 High Beta Utilities | Good Yields At High Potential

· 19 High Beta Technology Dividend Stocks At Reasonable Prices Compared To Growth

· 17 High Momentum Healthcare Dividend Stocks

· Cheap Financial Dividend Stocks With +15% Expected 5Y Earnings Growth

Back the current screen about high beta consumer dividend stocks. I observed this time large capitalized consumer dividend stocks with a low forward P/E and a beta ratio above one.

My screen produced only eleven results with yields between 0.71 percent and 2.58 percent. Nearly all of them (10 stocks) have a current buy or better rating by brokerage firms.
