Rules to follow before investing high dividends stocks

Buying stocks with high dividends is very much important for a long term benefit. A dividend is a share of the profits that the company pays to its shareholders. Our goal is to gradually build a portfolio of stocks with high dividends with a good performance for us. So, I do not position to seek a gain in the short term but to generate regular dividends over the long term.

 Why should we focus on this particular investment strategy? The reason behind this strategy is to make passive income each year, a yield higher than 3% of life insurance ... and enjoy the low cost of current actions. Selection of companies is paramount! You have to follow certain conditions that I validate whether they are eligible:

 Check whether dividends were paid for several years without interruption:

This is the first and foremost criterion to verify. The payment of dividends is much important usually it is decided one year prior. Therefore ensure that they were paid on a regular basis for many years.

 Check for whether the dividends are growing:

 The initial dividend is of course interesting, but its growth is even more interesting for us. In the long term, an action that has a yield of 3%, which increases each year by 10%, will quickly defeat an action that has a fixed return of 6%. This is the power of growing dividends, like compound interest, every year they bring back more passive income.
  
Analyze the financial data of the company: 

 Some questions should be ask about financial data of recent years: Is the revenue increases ?,If the profits increase, does especially where they come from? To find out, it is important to calculate the net operating income is the prime indicator to consider. Operating income takes into account the income and expenses related to the operation of the business while taking into account net financial expenses, financial income and extraordinary.

 For Example: if a company has a negative operating result and has a net positive, then it should be understood that the latter is obtained by the sale of an asset, for example a machine (exceptional items) or financial income (financial). The interest is whether the company can generate long-term benefits of its exploitation (healthy society) rather than non-recurring activities (sale of assets, financial products ...). Finally, it is worth checking the debt of the company. Too high debt will mean that a significant portion of the profits will be used to repay creditors. The remaining profit will perhaps not sufficient to ensure the payment of dividends.

 The dividend payout ratio should not be too high:

 This ratio is calculated as follows, total dividends divided by net income. It should not be too high for the company retains a portion of the profits to invest. The remaining investment capacity will enable its development. Ideally this ratio should be less than 50%, however in practice if it remains below 100%, while investment capacity remains available.

 Choose future business and diversify its portfolio:

 The important part of this step is always to target the long term. What are the growth sectors? Health, food, energy ... All that we cannot do without and which constitutes basic needs. We should not put all your eggs in one basket so diversification in these areas is needed. Once all these steps validated you can be confident in your savings plan and collect your dividends every year! I would try to make a selection of companies in a future article soon.

 I hope these tips will serve you, tell me what you think of this approach in the comments.

A Better Tips For Buying Gold Part.II

The purchase of the paper gold reflects the evolution of gold without the actual possession of it. It is the best alternative between the buying physical gold and buying gold stocks. This is the convenient way to buy and sell gold by bypassing the unnecessary taxation. The purchase is very simple and it is similar that of buying a share and you can buy in volumes. In addition in case of insolvency of the issuer, the investor is compensated in gold.

 Now you may ask the question what will be the trend of gold in coming months?

 Before making any investment we have to see the technical analysis of the particular product. Technical analysis is the study of graphs of financial products and various indicators derived in order to anticipate the market trend in the near future. In September 2011 the gold touched its record to the high of $1921. Before investing you have to judge the long term trend and short term trend. Sometimes the long term trend may bullish where as the short term trend may be neutral or bearish. Hence we have to plan according to the signal of our technical indicator. If the signal is not clear don’t venture into it and wait for the clear signal so that we can follow a foolproof risk management for a success.

Last but not the least the physical gold has the following advantages. It is the only asset which provide as a safe haven against both inflation and deflation. Unlike other investments it is not affected by the political and social events and it is the only reliable source when major economic crisis occurs. If you are a materialistic and pessimist then you go for the physical gold. If you are a conservative and optimistic then go for the gold securities with the self time varying from several months to several years according to the signals of your technical analysis and that of your plan. I hope I have explained perfectly the rules and it is quite simple, effective and applicable to every individual.

A Better Tips For Buying Gold Part.I

Today we are going to more about the gold. Commodities such as gold, oil or food grains are on the rise in the recent years. The oil price is soaring obviously because of its increasing demand and its scarcity which causes an imbalance between supply and demand. Because of demand raises the prices very quickly. The similar happens in gold also. On one hand the excessive indebtedness of countries and the Currency crisis raise the importance of yellow metal and on the other hand the demand chiefly come from its safe haven of quality and rarity and also the speculation which amplifies the rapid movement of the rare metal.

 Then how can we invest in gold? There are three ways to invest in gold. The first and easy one is purchase of physical gold that is the gold bars are the coins etc. The second one is buying gold stocks and the third one is buying gold in “paper”.

 Buying of physical gold is of centuries old and is the wide spread traditional one. In this type of investments you can buy a kilo in lot or of five hundred grams or of pellets of lower denomination. Now days you can buy the bullion directly from a specialty shop on the internet or the special counters in our banks. The greater disadvantage in this type of investments is safety. You have to store them somewhere in our home or in safety lockers at your home. Keeping the gold in the safety lockers in the banks are not safe. Let us discuss the reason in some other post later.

 The purchase of precious metal is also speculation on gold. The share prices of gold does not always follow the price of the open market. It fully depends on the health of the financial market of that day. In the international market the price of the gold has increased in price around 3.91% from the starting of the year. Usually the precious yellow metal fully depends on the financial market and tends to follow according to the ups and downs of the financial market.

Stock Trading Tools

Before venture into share trading you have to know the basics of technical analysis. There three basics in technical analysis. The first and for most one is Japanese candlesticks. The graph of the stock price gives us some information. It rises and falls in a zigzag manner. The main advantage of Japanese candle sticks is, it provide us a direct reading about the psychology of the traders. This can decrypt the price movement over a given unit of time and can infer, in which side the market is in favor of? i.e. in favor of buyer or the seller. To construct a candle stick we have to connect the opening price at the closing of a trading secession usually daily. What we call this as true body if the market is bullish the graph is white and if the trend is bearish the candle will be black. From the color variation we can distinguish whether the market is increasing or decreasing. The extremes of the market session are represented by the thin lines called shadows. Form the different forms of the candlestick we can judge the market trend.

 What is interesting is the combination of Japanese candlesticks. For example, assume three Japanese candlesticks in succession, therefore the ‘real body’ is becoming smaller and the shadow is longer and longer. This implies the buyers are losing hand to the sellers and the reversal is going to happen naturally.

 Apart from this, for a better trading we need to know the market namely, the areas on which course many buyers appear and where the sellers offload. The support level is the price level which is horizontal where by the market is sufficiently attractive to the current buyer develops.

Resistance is opposite of the support level of prices where the selling price mounts which leads to the decline in the price. The support and a parallel resistor forms a channel, that is why we say buy at support and sell at resistance. A support and a parallel resistor form a channel. It is for this reason that they say you have to buy support and sell resistance.

 Other one we should know in the stock market reading is Moving averages. A simple moving average is an arithmetic average of the last x periods. For example a fifty days moving average is equal to the arithmetic average of the last fifties taken daily. It is called moving because in each period the new one replaces the course of the old one and this process continues. When the price breaks to increase the level of the moving average we can say the short term trend is reversing towards the trend is increasing in the medium term. This trend is favorable to the buyer. Conversely, when the price breaks down the level of the moving average, we say the short term trend is reversing towards the trend towards lower medium term which is favorable to the seller.

Don’t Buy Gold!!!

    Why should we not buy gold? There are so many reasons not to buy gold. One of the first reasons is that gold does nothing, and it remains in the bank or in our locker. The only reason we are buying gold is that we are very sure that we can sell it to the higher price in future. In very recent article Warren Buffet said that the growing fear of loss and confidence in the market has motivated the practice of buying gold. Since the financial crisis of 2008, the gold prices have continued to climb. The lack of confidence in the global financial markets has let people to want something more concrete that cannot fail has placed gold into that place. As on June 2012 one kg of gold was about 41,525 Euros.

     Since the people hoped that future economic policies and the continued push for the progress will make gold as a profit buy. We don’t know when it will plunge. This is a risky game investing in gold. Globally the central banks of each of the county don’t want their people to invest in gold which openly displays how their people reject their paper money and hence they will act swiftly on day or the other. If the trend continues to be volatile then the governments will announce a very debilitating tax on this yellow metal to break the upward movement. If the gold market tend to monotonically increase then it will be good to the investments in stock markets. If the stock markets continue to fall then it will ensure a good appreciation in near future. Since the stock market is unpredictable when compared with the gold trend which followed a significant increase that lead to a bubble.

 Most of our readers aware that market is drive by the two namely fear and greed. Now we are in the middle of fear cycle. When it ends the cycle of greed starts immediately. If the gold bubble happens the gold price will fall and people will sell in bulk and they will forced to buy securities and therefore the stock’s price will increase. Hence it is ideal to buy gold as a small portion of our assets.

What strategy to be followed in Stock trading?

           Generally most of the large traders and share market investors had gained some shots of huge money. It is not a mere coincidence that those rich people are skilled somewhat, the fact is those rich people used the leverage provided by the financial markets. The great people such as Warren Buffet have been followed successful investment strategies which allowed them a great success in the market. Many books have been published about them and their trading secrets and technique and countless of peoples analyzed the secrets of their technique in stock trading.

      Apart from them hundreds of thousands of people around the world claim to have the best trading strategy to generate steady gains, if it is so then what is the correct key to wealth? And what is the best investment strategy to follow? Most of the successful personalities give the following tips: Diversity is remarkable investment strategy to follow. This illustrates the fact that it is not a holy grail. Hence we can conclude not a single investment strategy is better than the others, hence we have to shape our personal investment strategy accordingly to move towards the success.
    
Your own strategy will not be best suited to your fellow trader, hence everyone have to be very comfortable with the technical analysis of the market to tailor his own strategy. The technical analysis helps you to find out the clear picture of the company, their organization, their financial activities and others, their strategies etc. The technical analysis further helps you to predict the future trend in stock price. This kind of approach leads you towards success and success alone. A good investor should have a long term vision but he must be aware of both short term and long term views since both of them have their own merits and de merits. Once you are accustomed with your own technique for successful trading then stick on it and make necessary adjustments now and then if needed and over the time you refine your strategy of trading and knowledge then Success will be at your door steps.
                                                Happy trading!!!

Financial deregulation and Housing Bubble

From 2007, the outstanding performance of the financial institutions gave way to the bursting of the housing bubble. Real estate whose fees have a permanent character and recurring such as rental management and property administration resisted but the pace of transactions and starts declined sharply. This has caused an awareness on the part of banks reacted in: Stopping the acquisitions or investments in the real estate sector; Closing some real estate agencies; Restructuring their activities to promote consistency and readability of various trades; In addition, buyers found that they could not (for regulatory or governance) or failed to make the synergies that were announced and anticipated between the Bank's businesses and real estate. The real estate crisis has significantly slowed the enthusiasm of Banks. However, they must adapt their distribution model to the development of brokers. Indeed, the market share of the brokerage has grown steadily in recent years at the expense of traditional banking channels to locate currently around 22% of loans in Europe. This reflects an underlying trend as evidenced by other European markets where brokers capture 30% market share in Germany, 55% in Spain, 60% in the Benelux and even 66% in Britain. This figure reaches 70% loan in the United States. Brokers will therefore still snatch market share to banks pocketing pass finder's fees and thereby reducing margins to bankers. The temptation to control the upstream chain is always present. For this purpose, banks may acquire brokers. However, this strategy undermines the necessary independence of brokers and therefore generates a significant commercial risk (which could partly explain the current difficulties in the online broker). The alternative lies in the implementation of partnerships as do several networks developing funding in areas such as real estate agencies. Some banks even completely integrate the entire chain, from start to finish, offering new "space property" bringing together in one place all relevant interlocutors customers for their real estate projects. These "megastores estate" virtual or physical, may well be the response of banks to prevent erosion.

Financial Deregulation and Mortgage

Since the 1990s, as a result of financial deregulation (elimination of many forms of credit given) and increased competitive pressure, banks have a policy of proactive moderation tariff to maintain their market share and attract customers. The mortgage has become one of the main instruments of conquest and customer loyalty. To compensate for the low profitability of this product appeal, banks have created packages for project acquisition or rental investment. The formulas include, in addition to financing, more profitable products such as insurance homeowners, a guarantee of unpaid rent, a consumer credit to finance the cost of installation or, more recently, and technical diagnostics. However, the innovation supply is not differentiating between institutions as products and services are easily transferable. Banks have sought to decide the level of integration of certain banking and non-banking in the real estate value chain. Encouraged by economic growth, the most major banking networks have invested or increased their presence in the real estate industry since 1999 in search of new growth. The competition has essentially moved upstream of the value chain: developers and real estate services companies have become prime targets for banks. Most banks have adopted a strategy of external growth by making acquisitions in the field of promotion and taking position in real estate transactions as well as property management. In fact: The development sector is supported by a structurally strong demand in contrast to the saturation of the market for retail banking. In a context of rising property prices, the transaction sector has opportunities high income related to the amount of transactions and the sector can also monetize the distribution system through cross-selling. The field of property management has the advantage of generating recurring revenues relatively insensitive to potential downturns because of the captive nature of the clientele. Mapping below shows the result of this current wave of purchase. One can see those mutual banks and especially the largely integrated upstream activities of the value chain.

How to Overcome Fear of Money?

How can we make more money or material ultimately succeed in life without fear? In truth it is a fear that we had me for a long time. In general, this fear of the money moves from childhood. In some families money is associated with the errors (s) and sometimes even some decline. I call this the power of beliefs. For a long time I understood the sentence incorrectly. I understood that money is money and no matter how it is obtained, the important thing to have. Given the values that are mine, I could obviously never adhere to such principle.

In truth this phrase simply means that money is a tool for change, change of life and / or change jobs no matter what! Money has no smell because it has neither quality nor default. It is neither good nor bad, it's what you do, A Food for orphans or weapons to Africa. Fear of money is the fear of success

Know this, money does not come without we mentally prepare for its arrival. What does "prepare for the arrival of the money? “ It simply means that if you do not know what you will do with the extra money you are asking then there is a good chance you unconsciously sabotage yourself. Fear of money, sometimes it's the fear of being happy. The question arises as unconscious as follows: And if my level of happiness does not increase with the level of my bank account?

This fear is real, it can really paralyze you in the quest for more money after all and if ever it were true? And if more money does not mean more happiness in the end it would mean there would be a much more important work to do but make more money. This work is called "return home". The real work is how to associate one or reasons that are considered "good" the fact of wanting more money in the end just do more or better the same reasons that we find good. Money becomes the means and purpose.

Unconsciously this amounts to allow himself to succeed. Financial worries seem less important and at the same time your bank account will show you the numbers you want to see. That's what I mean when I write sometimes see your world as it should be.

Recovery Management

Retail banks have more difficulties to act upstream because they do not always have the same tools for monitoring risks. Also the volume of customers does not allow individual monitoring as efficient and systematic. Finally, the financial stakes of unit operations are often more important at the BFI, tools KYC (Know Your Customer) are often much better.An effort to strengthen the prevention of counter-party risk should be primarily focused at the retail bank. To be most effective in monitoring customer, banks must improve their KYC tools and adapt information systems to ensure better traceability and customer knowledge.

As part of the difficulty in tracking customers, banks must also be able to manage more aggressively selecting records management solutions pre-fault available to them: credit retrieval, assignment of claims ...

And if despite this, the transition to recovery is inevitable, it must be managed at best to recover the money owed.

Banks now use three different modes of recovery: the recovery in house, outsourcing and the assignment of receivables. According to the amounts to be recovered, the volume of files to process and cost recovery charges / recoveries banks prioritize one mode over another.

Internalization of recovery is used when the amount of recovery is important. This method has the advantage of allowing banks to keep a close link with its customers (customer loyalty) and propose appropriate solutions according to their situations. They must be able to identify different types of debtors, and thus to distinguish the deadbeat clients temporarily in difficulty. In this case also, good customer knowledge is required in order to propose a debt restructuring to the right customers. Outsourcing is prioritized by banks to process a large volume of records of outstanding amounts and less homogeneous. External companies are mandated by the banks to to recover on their behalf for a fee depending on the amount recovered.

The challenges of recovery management

In the context of economic crisis, late payments of companies have never been more important in Europe for four years in the UK for 10 years and Italy for 13 years.

For twenty years, a number of fundamental context of the distribution of insurance have changed: the appearance and growth of the use of "new" channels (internet, mobile ...), changes in market share (MSI , banks ...), coming into play of new distributors (supermarkets, banks ...).

The Real Estate Market in 2012

The real estate market has two sectors one is the investment oriented real estate and the other principle residence. The rental real estate is nothing but the investment real estate of buying a property to get rent. The fiscal policy has a great hindrance to buying a primary residence. The suppression of floating interest loan will also heavily impact on the real estate market especially on the first time buyers. The first time buyers are the vital tonic for the healthy market.
 The favorable tax exemption may increase the demand for the new home market. The taxation strategy should be changed; the taxation on real estate capital gains realized on additional housing units should be exempted. Stamp duties on real estate market should be revised and the evolution of the property and some protocols should be user friendly.
 If at all revised; the real estate market will be pushed in to the bear market. Since the government has changed its policy the banks are reluctant to finance the purchase of properties which could lead to the crash of the real estate sector. Apart from rich investors the common public cannot afford much in the current scenario. The sellers are reluctant to lower their price and the buyer expects the price may go down; hence the market is pushed for high inertia. The people are willing to invest in a tangible asset and they are more focused on the properties than the stocks or the banks this is the supporting factor which hold the real estate market now.

Operational Risk Identification

This phase is to identify and structure the operational risks that ultimately will be presented in support of hazard mapping.

There are several approaches to achieve this result.

* Approach the process: it is made from the process mapping an inventory of the various operational risks associated with tasks that make up these processes. For this, an analysis is required on the inputs, the transformation process and outputs delivered to the end of each process.
* Approach the interview operational: this process allows questionnaires from pre-established list the operational risks identified by the business as those who actually or potentially affect their operations.

Whatever the approach used to identify risks, it should be complemented by a comparison with a benchmark sector wise operational risk.

The result of this work should be formalized in a holder who submits a mapping type of process risks.

The risk assessment
From the operational risks established, it should conduct an assessment of risks. For this, a definition of criteria for risk assessment should be performed to objectify the evaluation process.

Observation of practices established in this field identifies the following criteria:

* Severity: is the maximum impact of the exposure or potential exposure to risk situations. This is the concept of gross exposure.
* Detection / Management: This is the company's ability to identify and respond to risk events. This is the concept of risk management device.
* Occurrence: This is the probability of occurrence of risk situations. This is the concept of frequency of events. To determine this probability should identify incidents occurring over the period and form the basis of historical intervene in the decision process.

In summary, the assessment of operational risk should be against these criteria, completed the evaluation of residual risk for the net risk.

This evaluation process of operational risk should be integrated as a milestone and indispensable in the process of establishment of the life cycle of projects and products.

Risk Monitoring

This phase is the establishment of a monitoring and control of the risk profile of the company. It starts with the determination of the tolerable level of risk for the company. This tolerance is defined not only in terms of maximum risk but also in terms of risk atypical. Of course, the threshold defined by the company must be a regular challenge to ensure its relevance to the evolution of endogenous factors (trade policy, training ...) and exogenous (regulation, competition ...).

The monitoring device as defined by the company and driven by the risk management objectives are to:

* Increase the visibility of the risks;
* Better organize and improve processes;
* Preserve the results or business performance;
* Optimize the load management;
* Assign more effectively equity.

To achieve these objectives, the company has a network of "corresponding risk" in charge of a "portfolio risk" associated with the activities. This will be for this team:

* Implement the actions for the detection of risk (term limits ...)
* To analyze the causal factors of risk events (no audit clauses in contracts ...)
* Ensure the implementation of corrective actions and the definition of operational contingency plans (follow the recommendations ...).

To complement this, it is necessary to define indicators for the management of major risks that may be presented to all levels of the company (management, legislative and executive).

These sets of provisions are the minimum needed to ensure accountability, awareness and training of stakeholders on issues of risk.
