Dividend Paying Stocks Struggling Mightily
In a post last month we highlighted the fact value strategies and dividend paying strategies were lagging both the S&P 500 Index and the S&P 500 Growth Index over the past twelve months. Frequently the value type stocks have a dividend component that provides additional return for investors. Further confirmation that dividend paying strategies have been underperformers can be seen...
Weighting by Yield Can Increase Risk
SPDR S&P Dividend ETF (SDY) offers a portfolio of companies with a long track record of increasing dividends. Companies that consistently increase dividends throughout market cycles tend to have sustainable competitive economic advantages or have experienced strong growth. However, weighting these stocks by yield gives the portfolio a tilt toward lower-quality mid-cap and value companies, which may have greater risk or...
3 Stable Dividend Stocks With High F-Scores
One tool that we can use is the Piotroski F-score. The F-score was developed by Professor Joseph Piotroski to help identify stocks with the potential and probability of moving higher in prices using data points from financial statements.

By limiting our high-yield portfolio to stocks with high F-scores we improve our chances of earning the income we need while...

Market Correction Unlikely: The S&P 500 2% Dividend Yield Model Appears To Be Intact
Since the Fall of 2009, the S&P 500 has persistently traded at a dividend yield of roughly 2%. More specifically, it has traded between 1.8% and 2.2% for virtually the entire period. At a current price of $2105.53 and dividend yield of 1.94% the market is well within that range. A 20% correction (to a price of $1684.42) would produce a dividend yield of 2.42% if it occurred very rapidly and an even higher dividend yield if it occurred over several months (because dividends would increase over this period). Before this transpired, yield hungry investors would likely...
