1) Valuation: reasonable valuation (TTM P/E that is lower than the overall market and in line with recent company history).
2) Growth: dividend stocks with dividend growth rates that are greater than inflation (and likely to continue at the same pace going forward).
3) Yield: Dividend yield greater than 125% on those of less risky investments (such as the 10-year Treasury note) is a must-have if you’re screening for the best dividend stocks in the market.
4) History: a long history of annual dividend increases (recommendation of 25 or more consecutive years).
5) Debt: long term debt/equity ratio less than 1.0. Great dividend stocks don’t need to leverage themselves to their eyeballs to reward investors.
6) Payout ratio: payout ratio less than 60%. Companies using less than 60% of their earnings to pay their dividends can pay them comfortably and reliably.
7) Intangible: factors such as diversification, positive industry outlook, and recent news also come into play.
