Stocks Going Ex Dividend the Fifth Week of June

Here is our latest update on the stock trading technique called 'Buying Dividends,' also commonly referred to as 'Dividend Capture.' This is the process of buying stocks before the ex dividend date and selling the stock shortly after the ex date at about the same price, yet still being entitled to the dividend. This technique generally works only in bull markets, and can work in flat or choppy markets, but you need to avoid the technique during bear markets.

In order to be entitled to the dividend, you have to buy the stock before the ex-dividend date, and you can't sell the stock until after the ex date. The actual dividend may not be paid for another few weeks. WallStreetNewsNetwork.com has compiled a downloadable and sortable list of the stocks going ex dividend in the near future. The list contains many dividend paying companies, lots with market caps over $500 million, and yields over 2%. Here are a few examples showing the stock symbol, the ex-dividend date, and the yield.

Top Anti-Crime Stocks

According to a report by the FBI, in 2012,  the number of violent crimes increased 0.7 percent, however, property crimes decreased 0.9 percent. Citizens are becoming more concerned about crime. Part of this may be due to an aging population. As the baby boomers age, the concern about the prevention of crime increases. Just notice the ads on television for burglar alarm systems.

The anti-crime corporate sector covers several industries, including private prisons, personal self defense products, firearms and ammunition for law enforcement, and anti-crime software. WallStreetNewsNetwork.com has turned up a list of a dozen anti-crime, law enforcement, and private prison related stocks, half of which pay dividends.

One example is Corrections Corp. of America (CXW),which owns and operates privatized correctional and detention facilities throughout the United States. The stock trades at 12 times trailing earnings and 17 times forward earnings. Earnings for the latest reported quarter were up a substantial 22.4% on a slight drop in revenues of 3.3%. The next earnings report will be in early February. The company pays a very generous yield of 6.0%.

In the personal defense arena, Taser Internations (TASR) makes the famous TASER gun, which is referred to as a conducted electrical weapon. The stock sports a fairly high price to earnings ratio of 49, with a forward PE of 46. Earnings for the latest reported quarter were up an incredible 39.1% on a 22.3% boost in revenues. The company is expected to report earnings again in late February. No dividend on this stock; it reinvests its earnings.

Verint Systems (VRNT) is a Melville, New York based provider of intelligence systems for law enforcement agencies. The company is involved in the detection of criminal, terrorist, and cyber attacks. The stock trades at 44 times trailing earnings, but a favorable 16 times forward earnings. Earnings for the latest quarter were up an amazing 311% of an 11.3% rise in revenues. The company reports in March.

To see a list of all the anti-crime stocks, along with data relating to PE, forward PE, PEG, yield, and type of business, go to  WallStreetNewsNetwork.com.

Are Your Stocks in Prison?

This private prison industry is an interesting business. However, stocks in this arena have been relatively flat over the last five years. One reason; since 2001, violent crime rates have dropped every year, according to the census bureau. This statistic is for both total number of crimes and the number of crimes per 100,000. But maybe this information is built into the prices of these stocks, and maybe there are some buying opportunities to help your portfolio get out of jail.

The largest company in this business, according to the free list of prison stocks at WallStreetNewsNetwork.com, is Corrections Corporation of America (CXW), a Nashville, Tennessee owner and operator of privatized correctional and detention facilities in 20 states. The stock trades at 17.5 times current earning, and 15.5 times future earnings, with a generous yield of 3.1%. Although quarterly revenues were up 2.4%, earnings for the latest quarter tanked over 21%. This was primarily due to the $4 million of start-up costs at Jenkins and Cimarron, the reduction in U.S. Marshals populations at certain facilities, and an increase in employee medical and workers' compensation claims.

The second largest is Geo Group (GEO) which trades at 17.8 time current earnings and at 13.2 times forward earnings. The company operates in the United States, Australia, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and Canada as a provider of government-outsourced services, primarily correctional, detention, mental health, residential treatment, and re-entry facilities. Earnings dropped 10.5% on a revenue increase of 5.3%.

The short list of prison stocks is available at WallStreetNewsNetwork.com, which can be downloaded, updated, and sorted.
