Stock Picks – High Dividend Stock Screen: 12-4-2015

Stock Dividends

Same results as last week – but the dividends have increased due to lower share prices:

Name Ticker Price Fair Value Margin of Safety Yield % MOS %
Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. MMP 60.61 76 $15.39 4.9% 20%
Waddell & Reed Financial, Inc. WDR 35.84 42 $6.16 4.8% 15%

We will see how today goes – so far, the markets are off to the races. I would like to make a play on MMP – currently researching the tax implications of owning a Master Limited Partnership.  It gets tricky – not for novice investors or folks without an Accountant.

Here are the screen inputs:

  1. Morningstar analysis available.
  2. Dividend Yield % > = 4.
  3. Dividend Growth % Past 5 Years > = 10.
  4. Payout Ratio Trailing 12 Months < 75
  5. Morningstar rating 4 or more stars.
  6. Financial Health Grade >= B.
  7. Stock Industry not = Asset Management
  8. Forward P/E <= 20.

z - even even smaller
