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:
