Whilethe markets hit new all time highs on a regular basis, each investor fears thepower of a strong market correction; me too!
I'm watching the markets and buy only stocks on a veryselective and very restrictive basis. I like to buy stock when everybody isanxious.
Today I've compiled 15 Dividend Achievers, stocks withmore than 10 years of consecutive dividend growth, with attractive fundamentalsand solid growth forecasts.
I believe in return of high yielding and cheap stocks.If the company grows earnings and sales and you pay a good price, you must geta higher price for your investment one day.
Each of the 15 stocks has a market capitalization overUSD 2 billion and a low forward price-to-earnings ratio.
In addition, earnings are expected to grow at adouble-digit pace within the next five years and more equity is available thandebt.
These are my top results...
