Hi,
The ideal retirement investment would combine:
- Low valuation
- Strong expected growth
- High starting dividend yield
Unfortunately, this combination is almost never found in the real world.
Strong expected growth rarely comes with a low valuation and high starting yield.
That’s because valuation is inversely connected to expectations...
In general, the better the expectations, the higher the valuation.
And when a company has excellent growth prospects, it is more likely to reinvest its cash flows into expansion rather than dividends – meaning high yields are unlikely to occur alongside rapid growth.
The only time all three of these factors occur together is when a strong growth stock that is established enough to pay rising dividends experiences a rapid valuation decline.
This can occur when the market badly misjudges the duration of a temporary negative event or during a steep market downturn.
But even in a steep market decline, a yield that looked attractive beforehand often becomes less compelling during the downturn.
If a stock yielding 2% falls 50% and now yields 4%, another stock that started with a 4% yield may now be yielding 8%.
It’s exceedingly rare to find the “ideal” retirement stock investment, so we are left to find the next best thing.
There are typically a handful of stocks that offer all three factors of the ideal retirement investment, just to a lesser degree. This is especially true when it comes to long-term growth.
But the good news is that you don’t need a rapid growth rate to generate solid total returns – and strong current dividend income – from your high-yield dividend growth portfolio.
- A growth rate of roughly 5% results in a doubling of value every 14 years.
- When you add a roughly 4% dividend yield to an expected growth rate of about 5%, you arrive at expected returns of approximately 9% before any valuation multiple changes. A 9% return results in a doubling of wealth in about 8 years.
- And that is before any gains from valuation multiple expansion. By investing in securities that are undervalued, you are likely to do better than what growth and yield alone can provide.
And the best way to find "next best thing" high yield dividend growth stocks to buy and hold for the long run is with the Sure Dividend High Yield Newsletter.
