Dividend Securities Return Cash to Investors at Record Pace
For the 15th consecutive quarter, dividends per share (DPS) for the S&P 500 has grown at double-digit rates. For the most recent period, trailing twelve-month (TTM) period ending in October 2014, DPS increased by 11.3% to $37.99.
For nearly six years now, the DPS for the S&P 500 Index has posted quarterly growth of a whopping 14.2%.
In the prior 12 months, nine of the ten S&P sectors recorded growth in DPS, with six of these nine sectors recording double-increases in DPS growth: Consumer Discretionary (18.8%), Financials (17.6%), Telecom Services (15.5%), Energy (14.6%), Information Technology (13.6%), and Industrials (12.2%).
There was only one sector that recorded a decline in DPS in the prior 12 months: Materials sector (-6.6%). Dividend securities have always been an important part of the portfolio of prudent investors. During this period, owning dividend securities has never been more important, as interest rates have hovered close to 0%.
Dividend Gems is the only regular publication we offer that focuses exclusively on securities. And it has a specific focus on securities that pay nice dividends.
Dividend Gems has been designed to provide the ultimate in investment flexibility for investors seeking to outperform the market, while receiving nice cash dividends.
Since 2011 when we first launched Dividend Gems, the Recommended List has had an average dividend yield greater than 120% higher than that of the S&P 500, while generating what we feel to be a similar level of risk.
Finally, the capital appreciation of many of the securities on the Dividend Gems list have soared over the past few years. Thus the total return of the 44 securities on the Dividend Gems list has been very impressive. Perhaps the best feature of Dividend Gems is the monthly Brief Notes section, where we provide trading guidance for each of the securities.
