Does anyone have recommendations for high dividend stock plays? I am using this type of strategy in my IRA, trying to keep it risk neutral with hedges, and just hold stocks that pay bigger dividends for growth.
Finviz has a nice scanner which I use for my swing trades. Dividends can be scanned for, but it isn't great because it isn't sortable by dividend.
If anyone has a better recommendation for dividend scanner, let me know. One big plus with Finviz is the ability to mouse over a symbol and get a chart preview, and be able to see side-by-side analysis of the instrument and its sector.
My strategy has been to be long dividend stocks and hedge through short ETFs (permissible in an IRA) to try and be risk neutral.
Mike, after screening for dividend yield (on your attached image), try click on Financial tab instead of Overview tab (in middle of screen) and then click on header Dividend for sorting value up/down.
In spite of losses, Nokia still has a strong balance sheet, with more than $20.2 billion in cash and only $6.1 billion in long-term liabilities and debt. Free cash flow has also been strong for the entire decade, which could make them a takeover target.
Sales of their Windows based Lumia Smart Phone could significantly affect their bottom line with the release of Windows 8.
To put things in perspective .... you could have bought Ford (F) in 2008 for $1.00 which went to $20 before pulling back to $9.21 Friday.
But then again ..... you may win the Balls of Steel award for taking a position in Nokia with a current share price of $1.71.
