Here are the 29 Best Dividend Stocks for 2012 – With a Complete Analysis!
Hey!
I hope you had a great Holiday Season and that you are ready to rock 2012!
I’ve taken off 2 weeks in December but I didn’t put my blog on the side. In fact, instead of writing articles on The Dividend Guy Blog, I’ve done some intensive research to pull out the 29 Best Dividend Stocks for 2012 and make out a 34 pages eBook.
Next week, I’ll be sharing even more information about the Best 2012 Dividend Stocks through a series on both American and Canadian stocks. But today, I was too excited and I wanted to share with you the work I’ve done to help you having a successful 2012.
The eBook covers 20 US stocks and 9 Canadian stocks. Each stocks part of the Best 2012 Dividend Stocks eBook has been selected from a bigger list (out of 211 stocks!) including all stocks that shows the following metrics:
Dividend Yield over 3%
Dividend Payout Ratio under 75%
5 Years Dividend Growth positive
Then, I’ve tried to pick interesting stocks considering their strengths (low payout ratio, high growth or low dividend payout ratio) and their sector. I wanted to cover as many sectors as possible in order to give you a wide variety of picks that will fit your portfolio.

I have T and INTC. I’m thinking about CVX for 2012.
Nice selection.
Whoa dude, get Radio Shack off that list. That is a sick horse if I ever saw one.
Great e-book once again! I like most of these stocks. I guess this would be a “dynamic” list.
Hey Matthew!
I was surprised to see their dividend stats!
thoughts on cvs? great list thanks
Great list. Will include in my Weekend Reading roundup!
@Neha,
do you mean CVX or CVS – Caremark Coporation? I don’t know much CVS as it doesn’t pay a huge dividend… sorry!
Mike.
I think you meant “TU” for Telus….
Great eBook by the way.
@Rob,
nope, the ticker is “T” on TSE. but I think you can trade it on the NYSE as well (probably under TU?)
Missed the e book on Jan 2 and can’t access it.
Hi,
I’m new to dripping. As a Canadian I have been buying some south of the border large caps. I’m hearing rumblings that the dividend laws are changing soon, Can you direct some of us who may be struggling with this? should I sell all and move to Canadian stuff, buy Canadian exclusively, or just wait and see???
Thanks
Oops, Sorry
That looks like a nice list of stocks. Do you plan to update the results, so that readers can see total return, dividend growth for 2012? Best Regards,
