 Every other months, I share the Top 20 Dividend Stocks from my tracking list. It’s pre-filtered by about 150 stocks across Canada and the US. I do track many stocks by sectors and they are mostly large cap as I am mostly investing in blue chip stocks with an economic moat. The purpose of the Top 2o is to highlight the movement of many of the companies and that value buys do come into play every now and again. If you feel a stock might be missing, let me know. I am always interested in tracking good stocks.
For my last three Top 20, Apple (AAPL) has been owning the crown of best valued company in my list and yet I continue to resist buying it. My investing strategy is for the long term and with Apple, it’s really hard to assess the long term and the highly competitive mobile landscape. When I say long term, I mean 10 + years… The cash on hand is making new buyers jump in feeling good about the dividends. I know we are all waiting for the next innovation and that’s why the company

I have tweaked my technical screening to include Liability-to-Equity ratio in order to include the companies’ liabilities into the equation. I wanted to assess the strength of the companies by also including the liabilities – just looking at the other metrics wasn’t giving be both sides of the coins. It was interesting to learn about the liabilities and understanding what is acceptable for the different sectors. The energy sector appears to have their liabilities in good control.

 I have a brand new stock in my value screening this month! It’s a relatively new dividend paying company, an innovative and a trend setting company. It’s also massive and was the largest company in the world until the company failed to impress investors. Guess it yet? Yes, I am tracking Apple and it’s on the list of value stock at the moment.

Apparently, the best time to purchase equities is at the end of October. It usually reaches a low on October 28 and the data goes back 60 years. Are you an investor that sell in May and buy back again in the fall? I am finding that there are indeed some good opportunities. Don’t buy anything just because it’s low but because it fits in your portfolio.

I stumbled upon an article on CNBC reporting Cramer’s top dividend companies for 2012. I was surprised by some of the name and as such I wanted to know what you thought of them. Interestingly enough, I only own 1 of them with Coca-Cola (KO). I picked Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) over Abbot Laboratories (ABT), AT&T (T) over Verizon (VZ) and I have McDonald (MCD).
What I find interesting though is that the companies aren’t really top dividend pick for one year only. You pick them for decades. It wasn’t clear if he was highlighting that they are good value at the moment … I’ll that up to you to assess 
I wanted to see how they did with my technical screening so I have provided my value score at the end. Not many would be a buy for me at the moment. The closer the value is to 6, the better
