Large Cap dividend stocks with very low debt and stock beta ratios originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. You know that I also cover stocks with low beta ratios, also mentioned as stocks with a lower correlation to the market.
I’ve published a long list with over 120 stocksabout large capitalized stocks with safe haven characteristics. For sure, safe is nothing on an angry sea but I believe these could be some values in my screen.
Today I like to show you the lowest leveraged stocks from the safe haven large cap list with a minimum dividend payout of 1 percent.
That’s not much and the low interest environment also keeps the capital and interest income of the corporates at a low level but I think it’s much easier to boost growth and increase future dividends for a low debt corporation than it would be for a high leveraged company.
Fifteen stocks fulfilled these criteria of which six have a current buy or better rating.Read More »
Dividend growth stocks with very high returns on equity and returns on investment originally published at long-term-investments.blogspot.com. A solid investment delivers also solid returns over the time. Dividend growth is not the only criteria for a good investment. There are also many dividend growth stocks outside with low or negative return on investments and return on equity ratios.
Today I screened the Dividend Contenders Database by stocks with high return ratios. I fixed the 20 percent level in order to get the best results.
Only 15 companies fulfilled both, a return on equity as well as a return on investment over 20 percent. The difference between those two ratios is that the return on investment does not include the leverage effect. A corporate with high debts will automatically generate high returns on equity. The second ratio is a performance measure that looks only at the investment by dividing the investment return by the costs of the investment.
One High-Yield is below the results and 10 stocks got a buy or better rating by brokerage firms. Leverage is the key for high returns in my screen. As you might see in the attached sheet, the debt ratios are modestly high but in the end, the investor will pay a higher price for a leveraged company.
