Stocks Going Ex Dividend the Fifth Week of September

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.

HealthSouth Corp	HLS	9/29/2015	2.1%

Can You Mike Money From Trash?

It’s a dirty job but some company has got to do it. The feature that is great about the garbage collection business that they are monopolies. Once they have their foot in the door, they are on easy street. You don't have a choice of waste collection companies; you get the service from the company that has contracted with your city or you take your trash to the dump. The way these companies grow is by raising rates, which they negotiate with the cities, and by acquisitions of either publicly traded companies or small private companies.

 One example is Waste Connections Inc. (WCN), based in The Woodlands, Texas, has a network of 148 solid waste collection operations. The stock trades at 25 times trailing earnings and 20 times forward earnings. Quarterly earnings were up an incredible 22.9% on an 8.3% rise in revenues. It also pays a decent dividend of 1.1%. Last October, the company raised its dividend by 13%.

 Republic Services Inc. (RSG), based in Phoenix, Arizona, has 336 collection operations. It has a trailing price to earnings ratio of 27 and forward P/E of 19. Unfortunately, earnings take 79% for the latest quarter on a slight increase in revenues. The yield is a healthy 2.8%.

 Of course, there is Waste Management, Inc. (WM), With a trailing and forward P/E of 19. It also has a yield of 2.8%.

What Stocks Does Bill Gates Own?

You have to admit that Bill Gates is pretty smart. After all, he is a self-made billionaire and one of the three richest men in the world. So maybe we should take a peek at his stock portfolio to see what he has invested in, through his holding company, Cascade Investments.

Obviously, he owns Microsoft (MSFT). But he also owns the garbage collection company Republic Services (RSG). He bought over a million shares of the stock during the last week. The stock trades at 24 times trailing earnings and 18 times forward earnings. On a revenue increase of 5.4% for the latest quarter, earnings increased by an incredible 217.9%. The yield on the stock is 3.0%, and the dividend is paid quarterly.

Gates also owns AutoNation (AN), the car retailer. The stock has a price to earnings ration of 17 and a forward PE of 14.5, with earnings rising 11.7% on an 8.2% increase in sales.

Pacific Ethanol (PEIX) is another Bill Gates stock. It has a forward PE of 9. Revenues for the latest quarter were up 37.4%.

Maybe if you invest alongside Gates, you can approach billionaire status. For more interesting stocks like this, such as Warren Buffett stocks, go to WallStreetNewsNetwork.com.
