4. Hi, My name is Aaron and I‘m with
Dividend Stocks Research, today were
reviewing our recently published article…
6. You wake up in a cold sweat.
It’s a nightmare that haunts you and
hammers you with the raw hurt of
hindsight. Hindsight is more than 20/20.
For investors it’s both painful and
helpful.
7. When we look back on an investment that
didn’t work out, it’s way too easy to see
what went wrong. What’s not so easy is
looking ahead. Any kind of forecasting
we do is going to be flawed. Just ask a
weather forecaster.
8. And when it comes to investing in the
best dividend stocks, the highest yielding
ones are usually stormy. The skies might
seem clear the day you invest in them,
but you can usually bank on unsettled
weather ahead.
9. Are there signals to watch out for?
Anything you can look for like high-
pressure systems and low pressure
systems? Definitely. The very first is high
yield.
10. There’s typically a reason why yield is
high. The higher the yield, the higher
your risk. There’s no way around it. So
here’s what to do. Set yourself a limit.
Give yourself a number and stick to it.
11. Refuse to invest in a dividend stock that
pays more than a certain percentage
yield. Don’t fall into the trap of telling
yourself, “Well, it’s different this time.
This is an exception.”
12. I’d suggest making 10% your limit, and
that’s stretching it. You usually don’t find
a dependable, safe dividend stock paying
more than a 5% yield. What about the
dividend stocks in between?
13. Should you even think about a stock that
pays a 7% or 8% yield? Sometimes. Let
me show you a few ways to figure this
out.
15. Here are 3 stocks that have been growing
their dividends...
-Senior Housing Properties Trust $SNH
-Vector Group $VGR
-Buckeye Partners Ltd. $BPL
16. The simple fact that dividends have been
growing makes each stock a contender.
The question we need to ask is, “Can the
dividend growth keep going?” To find
out, we start off with a look at the
competitive environment for each stock.
17. Our challenge is to determine how hard
it’s going to be for these companies to
make money in the years ahead. Senior
Housing Properties Trust looks like it has
a rosy future.
18. It’s a REIT, a real estate investment trust,
and it owns a portfolio of senior living
communities. Demographics are on its
side because of America’s aging
population. Chalk one up in the win
column for $SNH.
19. Vector Group is tougher to figure out,
because it’s in two different businesses
that have nothing to do with each
other...mortgages and cigarettes. There’s
no well-defined future for either
business.
20. Sure, fewer people are smoking, but can
Vector do well with e-Cigarettes? Tough
to say. Mortgages? They’ll probably
never go away, but how will they change,
and how well can Vector do with them?
21. Chalk one up for undecided. Buckeye
Partners Ltd. $BPLperforms almost as
well as Ohio State’s football team.
Revenues and earnings at this MLP
(Master Limited Partnership) in the
pipeline business have been trending up.
22. You could find worse segments of the
energy business to invest in than
pipelines. Even when natural gas and oil
prices are low, the stuff’s got to flow. So
we have these three dividend stocks.
23. We need to get a sense if the dividend
can keep growing. Here’s what we know.
Senior Housing Properties Trust $SNH
pays a 10.2% dividend. It’s been growing
the dividend for the past 5 years.
24. Vector Group $VGR pays a 6.5%
dividend. It’s been growing the dividend
for the past 4 years. Buckeye Partners
Ltd. $BPL pays a 6.8% dividend. It’s been
growing the dividend for the past 12
years.
25. Which one of these stocks is a
nightmare, which one is nothing to get
excited about, and which one deserves
your attention?
27. Finding the highest yielding dividend
stocks isn’t hard. The trick is to find one
where high yield can be counted on to
grow. You can make a case for each one
of the 3 high yield dividend stocks we’ve
looked at.
28. And there’s not one that is a clear-cut
clubhouse leader. If you were to pin me
down, I’d probably toss Vector Group off
the list of suspects because of the
strange combination of businesses.
29. Cigarettes and mortgages might be fine
as solo businesses where there’s a
single strategic focus, but together they
seem as strange as a spoonful of
mustard in a cup of coffee. I’d pass on
Vector.
30. Your tax considerations come into play
when you invest in a stock like Buckeye,
because the MLP income is taxed in a
special way. Get some feedback from
your accountant first.
31. If you’re OK with investing in an MLP,
keep in mind that the dividend could
shrink if the stock price grows. With
growing demand for Buckeye’s pipelines,
and revenue growth, this could easily
happen.
32. Not a bad problem to have. And don’t
forget, Buckeye has been growing its
dividend for the past 12 years. Safety?
Because it’s in the pipeline business, the
stock price has held up wellwhile most
energy stocks have been brutalized...
33.
34. That leaves us with Senior Housing
Properties Trust $SNH and its 10.2%
dividend. A little rich for my blood. You
can’t help but wonder how many things
have to go right for this kind of yield to
hold up for the long haul.
35. Yes, the stock is a REIT, a Real Estate
Investment Trust, so it’s a machine built
to deliver income. You expect a higher
yield with a REIT. But 10%? If you go into
this high yield dividend stock with eyes
wide open...
36. If you keep in mind that for the past few
years REITs have been on a roll and you
could be paying a premium... You’ll be
able to make a decision that makes
sense for your portfolio, so you can find
the highest yielding stocks for safety.
37. You’ll be able to avoid the nightmares.
No waking up in a cold sweat.
