Never before has my generation — and my parents’ generation — had a greater need for higher income!
And never before have we seen most yields stay so low for so long!
Fortunately, however, more U.S. and foreign companies have been doing something they haven’t done in decades:
They’re writing richer dividend checks.
And I feel equally fortunate that Nilus Mattive, the Associate Editor of Money and Markets, is one of the nation’s experts in precisely that area.
His specialty is dividends, dividends, and dividends — conservative, steady dividends that aim to double and triple your yield over time … hot, fast-growing dividends that can give you up to 23.1% right now … and even dividends where you’d least expect them — on global stocks and tech shares.
Until now, he has been working mostly from behind the scenes, reviewing and editing nearly every Money and Markets issue that’s delivered to your e-box each morning. But starting today, he’s coming out into the open — to bring you this gala edition on dividend stocks that you can buy today.
Nilus Mattive is the former editor of Standard and Poor’s The Outlook, the oldest continuously-published investment newsletter in the country. And he’s the author of Standard & Poor’s Guide for the New Investor.
He has a wealth of urgently needed knowledge on this topic. So don’t miss one word of his complete report below. — Martin
My 16 Favorite
Dividend Superstars
by Nilus Mattive
If you’re settling for “minimum wage” yields of 5% or less from your income-producing investments, it’s time you gave yourself a big, big pay raise!
There’s no reason why you can’t earn an annual yield of 10% or more with safe, conservative dividend-paying stocks … and up to 23% from high-dividend stocks.
In this gala edition of Money and Markets, I’ll introduce you to 16 of my favorite dividend superstar stocks, and I’ll show you how they can give you the immediate pay raise you deserve.
The Fixed Income Dilemma
Let’s say you have $10,000. And let’s say you buy a 10-year bond, earning about 5%. Where does that leave you?
First, even if inflation gets no worse than it is today, your yield will barely cover the rising prices of health care, energy, rents, or college tuition. Remember, your yield is locked in. It never goes up. That’s bad.
Second, at the end of 10 years, your principal will be exactly what you started with — $10,000 and not a penny more. That’s worse. Why?
It gives you zero growth in your nest-egg. It adds nothing to your retirement fund, your children’s college fund, or your “just-let-me-enjoy-life” fund. It’s a dead end precisely when you need an open highway. In contrast,
Some of the DULLEST Dividend-Paying
Stocks in America Are Now
Paying Early Investors
Annual Yields in Excess of 11%!
Let’s not even talk yet about the hottest dividend superstars that can give you up to a 23.1% yield right now. I’ll save those for later.
Instead, let’s first look at how even the stodgiest, dullest dividend-paying companies in America today could double or triple your income over time.
Take Procter & Gamble, for instance.
Most investors would just look at Procter & Gamble’s current dividend. That’s a big mistake, in my view. Far more important is the fact that Procter & Gamble has increased its dividend payment in each of the last 51 years.
That means P&G’s investors are getting bigger and bigger dividend checks every single year. And you don’t have to go back 51 years — nor even one-third that far back — to see amazing results. In fact,
Someone who bought Procter & Gamble just 15 years ago is now earning an effective dividend yield of 11.2%, about twice what you could get on a Treasury bond today! That’s the result of steadily rising dividends!
Johnson & Johnson, another supposedly stodgy and dull company, has delivered even better returns: Investors who bought its shares 15 years ago are now getting an effective dividend yield of more than 12%!
And an investor who bought Altria (the stodgy old tobacco company formerly known as Phillip Morris) is getting a 17.6% annual yield!
While other investors were busy chasing fast profits during the “dot-com” boom — only to see them go up in smoke — investors in steadily-rising dividend companies like P&G, J&J, and Altria have made out like silent bandits.
But the best part of this principle, called “yield on cost,” is that it applies to all dividend-paying stocks. As long as you buy into companies that are boosting their payments, your effective yield will keep going up … and there’s absolutely no limit to how high it can go!
Imagine how much more comfortable your retirement lifestyle will become once you double or TRIPLE what you’re earning! If you can only afford to take one dream vacation a year, instead you’ll pack your bags and go three times a year. If you only go out to dinner once a week now, you could dine out three nights a week.
Or, think how much more you could do for your children and grandchildren … or how you could simply enjoy life more!
If this investing approach is so easy, why hasn’t anyone told you how to do it before?
Because Wall Street has been programmed to tell you only about stock market gains. Turn on any financial news show on TV and you’ll see what I mean. All the pundits talk about is how much a company’s stock may go up. They almost never mention dividends.
That’s a crying shame because I believe these neglected dividend superstars are the best vehicles for retiring with more income, much more income. Plus …
Dividends Are the Best Way to Gauge a
Company’s True Performance and Prospects!
After all, in order to consistently pay dividends, a company must have a sound business model and steady profits. A company’s ability to pay steady dividends over time — and its power to increase them — are the single best clues about the quality of the company.
That’s why the smart investors in the world today are sending this simple and blunt message to corporate boardrooms:
“Don’t give me any more slick press releases. Don’t make me any more empty promises. Just put your money where your mouth is … and get my dividend check in the mail!”
This is not rocket science. You don’t need an exotic stock trading system. All you have to do is buy dividend superstars and hold them.
That’s why I’m so passionate about dividend-paying stocks. And that’s why I’ve just written a series of special reports on them.
My first report, “7 Dividend Superstars to Double Your Income Over Time,” includes strictly companies that have not only been paying dividends for at least 25 years, but have also been raising their dividend payments for at least 25 years straight.
Take W.M. Wrigley, for example. The confectionary company has had a stronghold on the chewing gum business for decades. The founding family still holds a lot of stock. And a recent acquisition is pointing the way to a bigger push into the land of chocolate.
How sweet it is for shareholders: The company has raised its dividend, nonstop, for the past 25 years. And it hasn’t missed a single dividend payment since 1923!
Wrigley is just one of the seven companies I name for you in my brand new report, “7 Dividend Superstars to Double Your Income Over Time.” I’ll show you how to get the report — at no cost — in just a moment. First, consider the six other dividend gems in this report:
Dividends raised nonstop for 30 years: This leading U.S. beverage maker is dramatically boosting its overseas presence — particularly in China, the fastest-growing consumer market in the world.
Dividends raised for 35 straight years: A major producer of consumer and healthcare products that’s also expanding rapidly in overseas markets.
Thirty-eight years of nonstop dividend hikes: Publisher of some of the nation’s best-selling newspapers. Ramping up its Internet businesses!
Recession proof! Makes two products always in demand — caskets and hospital beds. Has continually raised dividends through recessions and crashes!
Salt forever! Dominates the market for table salt, and has loads of other profitable products. Raising dividends for 30 straight years!
Indispensable products: More than 100 years ago, a few failed miners started making sandpaper. Today, their company makes a gazillion products used around the globe. Dividends paid since 1916!
I give you everything you need to know about each of these — plus, what to buy, when and how — in my hot-off-the-press report, “7 Dividend Superstars to Double Your Income Over Time.”
Now, I also promised to give you some stocks that could immediately deliver yields that blow away what you’re getting on your current income investments. So, here are …
Three Stocks That Can
Double Your Yield
IMMEDIATELY!
I’m not the kind of person to take big chances. But I’m not opposed to calculated risk if the rewards can be great — everything in moderation.
I’ve already shown you how to conservatively rack up ever-increasing income over time.
But in these times of rising inflation, it’s also prudent to seek out a full arsenal of investments with varying degrees of risk in order to maximize your income.
That’s why I’ve pulled out all the stops in my second free special report, “Three High-Dividend Stocks to Double Your Income IMMEDIATELY.” In it, I name my three top picks that could increase your income by anywhere from 100% to 400% starting right now.
High-yield stock #1: Earn 7.5% immediately! The first mega-yield stock I name lets you profit from the kind of big-money, behind-closed-doors Wall Street deals you read about but never seem to get a piece of.
This high-dividend company earns double-digit returns by funding leveraged buyouts and making other deals happen. And it passes along the rewards to its shareholders via fat, generous, growing dividends.
Its current dividend yield is 7.5%. And with some nice capital appreciation, it has generated a 35% total return for its investors in the past year — just the beginning of the trend I see ahead.
High-yield stock #2: Earn 8.3% immediately! In my special report, “Three High-Dividend Stocks to Double Your Income IMMEDIATELY,” I also name a telephone company that’s grounded and solid — like a mini-“Ma Bell” — a savvy counter-play to the cell phone madness sweeping the country.
A pending deal with one of the major players is set to fatten up the company’s cash flows and bottom line … PLUS boost its dividend payments. It’s already paying 8.3% a year in dividends. And just in the last year, its total return was a whopping 46.3%. I foresee more of the same till at least the end of the decade.
High-yield stock #3: Earn 23% immediately! Now, sit down for this last one! In your free copy of “Three High-Dividend Stocks to Double Your Income IMMEDIATELY,” I also name a stock paying a current yield that will blow your mind — 23.1%!
Think about that yield for a moment: If this company continues to pay out that kind of dividend — not guaranteed but very likely in my opinion — in just four years, your dividend checks alone will cover your entire initial investment. Everything you earn thereafter will be on the house.
And in just seven years, if you reinvest your dividends, your investment could grow over four times — just with the dividends alone.
I give you the names, the details, and very specific buying instructions on each of these companies in your free copy of “Three High-Dividend Stocks to Double Your Income IMMEDIATELY.”
Dividends Are Sweet! But Don’t Forget the
Icing on the Cake: Capital Gains.
Total Yearly Average Return:
20.8%, 21.2%, 23.5%, 32.1%, 45.2%
So far, I’ve just been talking about dividends. That’s my focus, and I believe in them so strongly I won’t recommend a stock unless it pays them!
But that doesn’t mean I ignore the icing on the cake — capital gains. Quite to the contrary, I also look for stocks that I feel are the most likely to deliver market-spanking total returns — the combination of steady dividends AND increasing share prices.
Here’s how I find them:
First off, I insist that ALL companies I recommend to you pay YOU handsomely just to own their shares, through steadily, nonstop, inexorably rising dividends. That’s the fundamental starting principle I never veer from.
Second, with that kind of track record, it ALSO follows that these are the companies with the greatest likelihood to let you sit back, while your capital grows.
Third, for maximum income and growth, I pick smaller, off-the-radar stocks that have the best growth potential in terms of sales and earnings. The combination of the two — dividends plus growth — give you the double-bang for your buck I call “Superstar Total Return.”
Right now, there are only 21 stocks in America that meet my criteria for Superstar Total Return. And among them, I have picked out my six favorites with the best dividend history, the best capital appreciation and the best potential for much more of the same.
I name them in my third free report, “6 Fast-Growing Dividend Superstars.” Here’s just a glimpse of what you’ll discover …
A New Chew Toy for “Buddy”
— and an Extra 21.2% PER YEAR for YOU!
I’ll tell you about PetSmart, and why I think adding its shares to your dividend superstar portfolio is one of the easiest, no-brainer moves you can make right now to plump up your income and your portfolio’s value.
In the past five years, if you had simply reinvested the dividends this stock paid out, you’d have made an eye-popping total return of 21.2% PER YEAR!
Yet, I believe this could be mere chump change compared to what’s ahead for the company’s shares. The pet care market is huge and growing, thanks in part to the mushrooming number of baby boomers who are spending more money on their pets than ever before in history — especially now that their kids are out of the nest.
Already, households shell out an average of $1,571 a year on their dogs alone. And according to the American Pet Products Manufacturers Association, sales of pet products topped $38.5 billion in 2006 — more than double a decade earlier. Reason: More than 69 million U.S. households (63%) own a pet, and 45% of those own two or more.
PetSmart is perfectly positioned to maximize its share of this booming market. Not only is its stock set to enjoy rising capital appreciation, the company’s dividends — already up 44% just in the past three years — are also likely to soar even higher.
I give you specific instructions on how and when to buy it in my second free report, “6 Fast-Growing Dividend Superstars.”
Plus, I’ll also show you how you could be getting total returns of …
- 20.8% per year from an overlooked investment banking firm …
- 23.5% per year from a little communications company sitting in the sweet spot of the defense spending boom with billions of dollars in backlogged orders …
- 32.1% per year from a diversified manufacturer of heavy equipment used by fire departments, sanitation companies, and the Department of Defense, and …
- 45.2% per year from an industrial metals company that’s racking up solid growth thanks to rising demand and smart acquisitions!
- And more!
These companies illustrate the amazing power of combining dividends plus capital gains, and I’d like to get this FREE report into your hands as soon as possible.
Reason: Any one of these unsung heroes could add an extra digit or two to your income — and your portfolio. My view: The earlier you get in, the bigger your potential gains.
Learn How to Double Your Income AND
Your Wealth! Start NOW to Live the Rich,
Worry-Free Life You Deserve!
Now that you’ve seen the huge potential in dividend superstars, how much longer are you willing to keep your money earning a fixed rate of 4%, 3%, even less than 2% — not even enough to keep pace with inflation?
How much longer are you going to let the rising cost of prescription drugs, housing, energy, insurance and other everyday expenses erode your lifestyle and threaten your golden years?
This is not just a future threat. It’s happening NOW. And even if inflation gets no worse, it could eat away at the comfortable, worry-free retirement you’ve worked so hard to achieve.
Fortunately, that scenario is totally avoidable just by taking simple steps to boost your income and total return — with the reliable dividend-paying companies I’ve told you about today.
What’s more, with the right selections, you could double your money in seven years. That’s right — if you consistently earn a conservative 10% a year with dividend-paying stocks — your portfolio could double in just seven years.
And that’s without subjecting yourself to a gut-wrenching, high-risk roller coaster strategy … without in-and-out trading … and without leveraged investments.
