Hot Penny Stocks To Invest In Right Now

Suppose I offered you a million dollars cash today. Or, I could give you one penny today, two pennies tomorrow, four pennies the following day, and so on, for an entire month.

Many would choose the cool million. After all, option B would only yield a grand total of $1.27 after the first week and $163.84 after the second. But that amount will continue to grow exponentially. A steady doubling would produce a little over $5 million after thirty days.

You’re probably familiar with stories like this. They’ve been around for ages.

For example, there’s an old folk tale involving a king and a peasant that illustrates the same concept. After doing a favor for the king, the peasant asks for a seemingly humble request: To receive one grain of rice for the first square on a chessboard, two for the second, and so on until reaching the 64th square.

We already know that by the 30th square, the peasant would be looking at a half billion grains of rice — probably enough to make him the wealthiest person in the kingdom.

Another no-brainer acquisition that would make sense for Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway is satellite radio operator Sirius XM Holdings (NASDAQ:SIRI). It’s worth pointing out that Berkshire Hathaway already owns 137.92 million shares of Sirius XM, or about 2.9% of all outstanding shares.

Sirius XM Holdings (NASDAQ:SIRI) and Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) dominate their respective corners of the entertainment industry. As they’ve risen to power over the last decade, they’ve earned fortunes for investors along the way.

A lot can happen to a stock in just a couple of weeks. There were 275.5 million shares ofSirius XM Holdings (NASDAQ:SIRI)sold short at the end of January, the largest number of bearish bets placed on the satellite radio provider in more than a year. Two weeks later, short interest fell to 174.7 million shares, a fresh 52-week low in pessimism.
[By Money Morning News Team]
Or look at Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: SIRI). It traded for just $0.70 in 2010. Now it’s worth $5.90 a share, an incredible 778% surge.

Those are the sorts of potential gains the top penny stocks offer, and you wouldn’t have to trade sketchy shell companies on pink sheets to access those gains either.

And while Ensco has taken its share of asset writedowns in recent years to decommission older, non-economical vessels, it has also been one of the biggest beneficiaries of consolidation. In 2017, it acquired Atwood Oceanics, a smaller company with a young, high-spec fleet of floating vessels, and more recently agreed to merge withRowan Companies(NYSE:RDC), which has a high-quality fleet of jack-up rigs and a strong backlog of work for that fleet.
[By Travis Hoium, Jason Hall, and Matthew DiLallo]
And while offshore still has a ways to go, I think investors should do well to buy Ensco at current prices. At recent prices, its shares trade for about 24% of tangible book value.Furthermore, it’s also a 23% discount to the book value ofRowan Companies(NYSE:RDC), which will merge with Ensco sometime in the first half of the year. It’s a substantial discount to more typical book value multiples these companies have carried during healthy offshore drilling environments:
[By Matthew DiLallo]
While September was a good month for Ensco, the company made an even bigger splash in October by agreeing to buy fellow offshore driller Rowan (NYSE:RDC) in an all-stock deal. Ensco believes that the combination with Rowan will generate $150 million in annual cost savings while boosting its cash flow per share starting in 2020. It’s the company’s second major deal since the oil market downturn began; itbought Atwood Oceanics last year for $6.9 billion.

As we approach the end of the first half of 2018, the Nasdaq Composite and Russell 2000 have become the upside leaders. The Nasdaq and small-cap averages are leading the stock market melt-up, setting new highs of 7,691.65 and 1,676.18, respectively, on June 6.

Next up will be the S&a;amp;P 500, which is 3.5% below its Jan. 26 all-time high of 2,872.87. It closed June 6 between my annual and quarterly pivots of 2,769.1 and 2,777.3, respectively.

The laggards are the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Dow Transportation Average, which set their all-time intraday highs of 26,616.71 on Jan. 26 and 11,423.92 on Jan. 16, respectively.

&l;strong&g;So, what&a;rsquo;s going on?&l;/strong&g;

Top Dividend Stocks To Invest In 2019: Raytheon Company(RTN)

Advisors’ Opinion:

[By Lou Whiteman]
President Donald Trump’s decision to impose tariffs on European steel and aluminum comes at a particularly delicate time for major U.S. defense contractors Boeing (NYSE:BA), Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT), and Raytheon (NYSE:RTN), with each company vying for at least one of several multibillion-dollar procurement deals in Germany.
[By Lou Whiteman]
A version of Lockheed Martin’s (NYSE:LMT) high-tech Aegis weapon system upgraded for ballistic missile defense (BMD) provided the computing power and radars used in the test, while a Raytheon-built (NYSE:RTN) SM-3 interceptor was fired at the target.
[By VantagePoint]
Raytheon Company (NYSE: RTN) has actually been on a prolonged uptrend going back five years, but the stock struggled for the first three months of 2018 to get over the $220 level. That resistance has since broken however, and RTN has continued to reach new all-time highs. This is another one that is looking poised to continue higher through its earnings report on April 26. Raytheon has exceeded Wall Street's EPS estimates every quarter since July 2016.

Top Dividend Stocks To Invest In 2019: ConocoPhillips(COP)

Advisors’ Opinion:

[By Matthew DiLallo]
ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP) worked hard to turn its business around during the oil market downturn. We saw the first glimpse of its ability to thrive, now that prices are on the upswing, at the end of last year when the U.S. oil giant reported $545 million, or $0.45 per share, of adjusted earnings. That result marked a significant improvement from the loss it had posted in the previous year.
[By Lee Jackson]
ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP) was started with an Outperform rating at BMO Capital Markets with a $74 price target. The Wall Street consensus target for the oil giant is set at $74.35. The shares ended trading Friday at $69.43.
[By Chris Lange]
The number of ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP) shares short fell to 11.83 million from the previous 12.60 million. Shares were trading at $71.30, within a 52-week range of $45.65 to $74.73.
[By Rich Smith]
And yet, a funny thing has been happening in the market for oil stocks over this past week. All of a sudden, Wall Street analysts are talking up free cash flow as a reason to buy oil stocks. In fact, they can’t seem to shut up about it. Over just the past few days, I’ve seen free cash flow mentioned prominently in the analyses of Wall Street bankers on no fewer than three separate oil stocks: ExxonMobil, Chevron (NYSE:CVX), and ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP).

Top Dividend Stocks To Own For 2019: Scana Corporation(SCG)

Advisors’ Opinion:

[By Matthew Frankel, CFP®, Neha Chamaria, and Matthew DiLallo]
Granted, Dominion Energy’s payout of around 70% is at the higher end, but it shouldn’t be tough for the utility to maintain dividends given the highly regulated nature of its revenue. Of late, the market has been concerned about a couple of developments, including Dominion’s impending acquisition of SCANA Corp. (NYSE: SCG) and its planned funding route that is now in the reworks because of regulatory changes.
[By Reuben Gregg Brewer]
SCANA Corporation’s (NYSE:SCG) dividend yield is listed at an enticing 7%, but don’t get suckered in. This utility is dealing with a very troubling situation right now. You are better off sticking to a high-yield stock like utility peer Duke Energy Corporation (NYSE:DUK) and its very generous 4.9% yield. Here’s why.
[By Shane Hupp]
Shares of SCANA Co. (NYSE:SCG) have received a consensus recommendation of “Hold” from the twelve research firms that are currently covering the company, Marketbeat reports. Three investment analysts have rated the stock with a sell recommendation, six have issued a hold recommendation and two have issued a buy recommendation on the company. The average 12 month target price among brokerages that have issued a report on the stock in the last year is $43.75.

Aside from checking on whether the company achieves that aim, there are two other items investors should keep an eye on in the second half of the year. First, the company continues to make progress on its proposed merger with SCANA (NYSE:SCG). Shareholders of SCANA recently voted in favor of that transaction, and Dominion has won the approval of several regulators, including the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), the Federal Trade Commission, and the state of Georgia. However, the company still needs to get permission for the deal in North Carolina and South Carolina, with the latter one being a key sticking point due to SCANA’s failed nuclear plant in the state. While Dominion has offered several concessions in the deal to win over both customers and legislators, it might not be enough since the state wants an even bigger rate reduction. The company remains optimistic that it can close the deal by the end of this year, though it’s unclear if that will happen.

The stock market had a tumultuous session on Wednesday, as major benchmarks started the day weak but bounced back in the afternoon. Investors weren’t happy with the current state of geopolitical uncertainty, with trade disputes threatening to become larger problems than ever. But the release of the minutes of the latest meeting of the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy committee convinced many that the central bank will be slow to do lasting damage to the economic expansion, remaining measured in the pace of its interest rate increases. Moreover, some companies had good news that sent their shares higher. Tiffany (NYSE:TIF), BP Prudhoe Bay Royalty Trust (NYSE:BPT), and Ralph Lauren (NYSE:RL) were among the best performers on the day. Here’s why they did so well.

Top Dividend Stocks To Buy Right Now

The education of new investors often follows a similar path… New investors get interested in the stock market. They think it's just a matter of time before they find some small, unheard-of company that will grow 100 times over, making them rich. Before long, the investor realizes that investing in small companies is harder than it looks. Yes, occasionally a tiny stock blossoms into a big winner. But if you don't have a strategy for choosing the right small companies, it won't be enough to offset all the duds. Eventually, investors usually learn that the "easy way" to succeed in investing is to buy established, quality companies and hold them for extended periods. This method of investing is near and dear to me. In my Retirement Millionaire flagship letter, we focus mostly on blue-chip dividend-payers… well-known brand names… and funds with plenty of liquidity. We love their safety and ability to compound wealth over time.

Best Dividend Stocks To Buy Right Now

In January, 2000, we initiated The Lucky 13 portfolio to assist subscribers in establishing a foundation for their investment portfolios, observes dividend expert Kelley Wright, editor of Investment Quality Trends.

For the fifteenth time in its seventeen-year history, The Lucky 13 portfolio realized a positive total return with a gain of 16.30%.

Obviously, we welcome the positive performance for the year; however, we don’t believe that the return for any one-year period is reflective of a long-term body of work.

With that being said, since its inception in January, 2000, the arithmetic average annual total return for the portfolio is 12.69%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is 11.83%.

When compared to the arithmetic average annual return of 6.14% and CAGR of 4.47% for the S&P 500 over the same time period, the long-term benefit of limiting portfolio considerations to high-quality companies that offer good current value are clear to see.

Top Dividend Stocks To Watch Right Now

New York Community Bank (NYCB) is a perfect example of a stock where it seems like everything that could go wrong has already gone wrong, and as a result, shareholders have sold the stock down to an irrational level. Worries about New York Community Bank’s declining Net Interest Margin and their inability to grow their assets have plagued shareholders for years. Today, the bank, historically one of the most conservative in the country, now trades below book value with a 5.8% dividend yield.

If we strip away negative sentiment and only look at fundamentals, worries about Net Interest Margin appear to be priced in, and the bank is now on the cusp of what appears to be long overdue changes in financial regulations that will lift the SIFI threshold to $250 billion, allowing New York Community Bank to finally go on the offense for a change. Because of the 5.8% dividend, the stock only needs minimal price appreciation going forward for investors to do very well, and with the shares trading at ten-year lows, it’s time to aggressively buy New York Community Bank.

Best Penny Stocks To Buy For 2019

In the two years I was at Columbia Business School, I learned how to value a company down to the penny of its stock price and to forecast budgets years into the future.

But there were certain lessons that weren’t on the syllabus that have proven to be even more invaluable.

Between the demanding professors, mandatory group work and baptism-by-fire experiences, business school taught me skills that will not only help me ace an interview, but also lead a better life. Here are five of the most important lessons I walked away with.

1. Time is the only constantly appreciating asset

You can make more money, but you can never make more time.

We studied some of the world’s greatest business leaders and they all managed their time like a priceless commodity. That single skill meant the key difference between success and failure on many occasions for them. This skill does not require anything other than simple discipline. Spend your time on the things that truly matter and you will never waste this precious asset.
