Ex-Dividend Stocks: Best Dividend Paying Shares On August 20, 2013

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.

In total, 38 stocks go ex dividend - of which 12 yield more than 3 percent. The average yield amounts to 4,46%.

Here is the sheet of the best yielding, higher capitalized ex-dividend stocks:

9 Stocks With Yields Over 10% And Buy Or Better Rating

Stocks with very high dividend yields and buy or better recommendations originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Some of my readers like you have a huge desire for income stocks. Not enough, they should have a good payout in terms of initial yields and offer you a great opportunity with price hikes.

It’s hard to find the perfect dividend stock that delivers you a great return at a low risk and the higher the initial yield, the bigger the risk seems.

Today I would like to introduce you some of the highest yielding stocks at the stock market with current buy or better ratings by brokerage firms.

At the market are around a hundred stocks with double-digit dividend yields but most of them, 78 percent, are small capitalized. I don’t like stocks with a small market cap because of the low diversification and high sensitivity when trading volume comes into the stock. In my current screen, I observe only stocks with a USD 2 billion or more capitalization. Below is a list of the 9 highest yielding stocks with a buy or better rating.

9 Stocks With Double-Digit Yields And Buy Or Better Recommendations

Stocks with very high dividend yields and buy or better ratings originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. Boost your dividend income wisely. The easiest way is to look for stocks with extraordinary high yields but there is still a huge risk to receive the dividend one time and no more further.

There is no solution for this problem because no return exists without a risk. Today I’ve screened stocks with very high dividend yields (over 10 percent). Around 100 companies have a current yield over 10 percent but most of them are low capitalized or they will pay no high dividends in the future. In order to eliminate the real big risks from the screening results, I observed only those companies with a market capitalization over USD 2 billion. In addition, the stock should have a buy or better rating. Only nine stocks fulfilled these criteria with a dividend yield between 10 percent and 20 percent.

12 Stocks With Very High Yields (+10%) And Positive Growth Expectations

10% yielding stocks with future earnings growth originally published at "long-term-investments.blogspot.com". We all look for high dividend payments. I for myself am fixed to get a 3 percent return with good long-term growth perspectives. Others like High-Yields with stable payments.

Today I like to show you the highest yielding stocks at the market with positive earnings per shares growth for the next five years. I know, stocks with yields above the 10 percent mark are very risky and they like to reduce their payments in the future. In order to reduce the risks from lower capitalized stocks, I selected only those companies with a market cap above 2 billion.

Only 12 companies fulfilled my mentioned criteria of which five have a current buy or better rating. The results are dominated by real estate trusts. Annaly Capital Management is still on the list but they needed to cut dividends last week by 11.1 percent from 0.45 to 0.4 cts per share. Die interest rate increase hurts the company.
