Buy Dividend Winning Stocks In Dips
It was quite clear to us that there was a sell-off in many dividend paying stocks on Friday, with a new focus on growth stocks. The growth areas were led by financials, like Bank of America (BAC) and other large banks, since the Fed has basically given them an unlimited check book to use funds at ridiculously low interest rates, and have a wide enough spread to make money on virtually anything they desire. Our portfolio now consists of...

What You Need To Know Before Trading Dividend Stocks
Prior to buying stock in a company that distributes cash dividends, check today?s newspaper. If the stock you want to buy has been marked x in any of these papers, it means that it is already gone ex-dividend. In case of a company that pays dividends in form of stock, you should also confirm if the stock has approached ex-dividend ahead of investing in it. Another thing you should determine is...

Dividend Stocks For the 2013 Stock Crash

As Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke recently stated, the economic conditions in the United States, particularly high unemployment, should be of "grave concern" to all.

Call them the new growth stocks. After rushing into dividend stocks of all stripes this year, some investors are homing in on a more select group: stocks of companies that are likely to keep raising their dividends at a fast clip. It is all part of the chase for better returns on the heels of the Federal Reserve's announcement last week of another round of bond buying aimed to keep interest rates at rock-bottom levels until the economy improves. As yields on the 10-year Treasury wallow at near-record lows and "junk"-bond yields also are sinking, investors are seeking anything that offers some extra income. For months, that meant investors bought...

Dividend Stocks With An A+ Buy-Rating
There's about 6,000 U.S.-listed stocks trading on the major exchanges on any given day. Of those, TheStreet Ratings has rated 5,774 and only 121 issues -- about 2% -- have received an "A+," our highest rating. TheStreet Ratings' stock model projects a stock's total return potential over a 12-month period including both price appreciation and dividends. We consider each of these stocks to be strong buys. Nine of these exceptional companies are well-known Dow dividend stocks...
