Meta buys HCP 37.55: It's also worth noting that bad PR in the auto industry rarely lasts more than a few quarters, so GM's brand image with consumers was likely due to stabilize in the near-term anyway.

With this in mind, let's have a look at some of the top dividend stocks that you can consider buying in October. In turn, this dividend can help modestly buffer your potential downside during a stock market correction, and it can be used to compound your wealth via dividend reinvestment. The reason for this is dividend-paying companies act like a beacon for investors, notifying them that a company's business model is sound enough to share a percentage of its profits with investors. The market's top dividend stocks aren't immune to stock market downturns, but history shows that over time dividend-paying stocks tend to vastly outperform companies that don't pay dividends.

Temeka buys IJR 107.36: While small-cap company stocks provide specific benefits to investors, holdings in small-cap companies come with a high degree of risk.

Investors have an opportunity to participate in the small-cap domestic equity market through IJS at a discount when combined with a value tilt. Investors in small-cap companies such as those found within the investment mix of IJS may also benefit from acquisitions, most of which include an appreciation in stock price for shareholders. Companies that fall into the large- or mid-cap categories are less likely to grow at a rapid rate, while successful small-cap companies have the ability to experience exponential growth in a short period of time. Fees, commissions and expenses vary depending on the trading platform used and the extent to which an adviser or broker is needed to assist with the transaction. Investors experience a low cost of ownership in terms of internal management costs, expressed by IJS' expense ratio, but trading fees, broker or adviser commissions and other transaction costs may be imposed at the time IJS is bought or sold.


Roselia:
Under the iShares family of funds, IJS represents one of 11 small-cap domestic equity funds and is one of three small-cap ETFs with a value tilt.

Caitlin:
With the support of BlackRock, iShares manages more than $1 trillion in investor assets, and together the companies offer over 700 individual ETFs.

Annika:
While IJS has a focus on small-cap domestic company stocks that are considered undervalued based on specific financial metrics, the fund diversifies in terms of business sectors.

Raquel:
As of August 2015, IJS has a 12-month median tracking difference, or tracking error, that lags the underlying benchmark index by 0.24%, making the fund efficient in terms of management.

Ashlyn:
Each of the 462 small-cap domestic company stocks included within the investment mix of IJS follow the same weighting and value screening as holdings found in the benchmark.

Sun:
Additionally, each small-cap company is a constituent of the S&P SmallCap 600 Index.

Hui:
The S&P SmallCap 600 Value Index utilizes float-adjusted market capitalization weighting guidelines to track the performance of 460 small-cap company stocks from the U.S. equity market.

Alexandria buys CLX 116.93: Expanding EBIT margin 25-50 basis points annually.

This press release includes some non-GAAP financial measures. The company is led by a team of seasoned researchers, engineers and technology experts, backed by an advisory board of world-renowned vision scientists. EnChroma has developed a robust line of innovative eyewear products with cutting-edge optical technology for men, women and children. EnChroma emerged from a National Institutes of Health (NIH) SBIR study on the feasibility of correcting color vision deficiency, and over ten years of R&D. Once the correct ratios entering the eye are re-established, the correct color can be perceived.


Kellie:
One in 12 men, and approximately one in 200 females, have some form of CVD.

Maryann:
Color blindness is often considered a mild disability, but studies estimate that two-thirds of the 300 million people with CVD feel it's a handicap.

Ginny:
EnChroma will distribute glasses to color blind schoolchildren in need while supplies last.

Elia:
This is significant because in the first 10 years of a child's life the brain experiences its fastest growth.

Many color blind students struggle to learn color-coded information in school.

Salley:
Studies have found that as much as 80 percent of information is taken in visually.

Clorox Company (NYSE:CLX)
//stockhand.net/us/?q=nyse%3Aclx&id=682593

Oneida buys MAC 77.21: This leads me to believe the dip in GOOD's market price is almost entirely related to the REIT being lumped in with external managers, and therefore, has substantial upside as the alignment becomes apparent to the market.

As an NNN REIT, cash flows are naturally steady, and are made even steadier by strong diversification by property type and tenant. Fundamentally, it is among the safest stocks you can buy. Farmland should trade closer to 20-25X due to the zero maintenance cost nature of ownership and the tendency to appreciate over time. As it stands today, LAND is trading at just 16 times 2016 FFO, which is quite low for the asset class. If we look at the actual fundamentals, LAND has grown its asset base substantially, but more importantly, it has grown FFO on a per share basis, which, again, is the number one sign of aligned management.


Alina:
The higher dividend paid out during 2013 was a special dividend related to becoming a public REIT, and was simply to comply with tax laws.

Fallon:
We see this discount as unjustified, and believe there is an opportunity in buying at current prices.

Gwyn:
The rest of the discount, in my opinion, is related to CORR being externally managed, and it is being unfairly lumped in with RMR.

Suzan:
Some of the discount is likely attributable to the present uncertainty of energy prices, so there is concern that reduced profitability of their tenants will spill over to affect rent payments.

Tinisha:
CORR is now trading at less than 6X normalized FFO and a dividend yield well over 10%. This represents an enormous discount to the REIT and its triple-net lease (NNN) peers.

Jude:
So far, all decisions seem to be well aligned with shareholders.

Opal:
It is only buying assets that have a return sufficient to be accretive to shareholders.

Elicia:
With an enormous pipeline and only 1 or 2 transactions a year, we believe CORR is passing on a large portion of acquisitions.

Sherill:
Since that time, 100% of transactions have been demonstrably accretive to FFO on a per share basis.

Marcela:
Shareholders voted for REIT, so CORR issued the equity necessary to make a transaction substantial enough to qualify legally for REIT tax exemption.

Nereida buys VALE 4.48: BSG Resources, a company associated with Israeli diamond billionaire Beny Steinmetz acquired the concession later that year after spending $160 million exploring the property.

At the end of the first quarter only 16 funds had a total investment of $153.74 million in Banco Santander, S.A. (ADR) (NYSE:SAN).   John W. The stock price rose by a little over 11% during this period as compared to the 25% increase in investment. We have organized the list by their popularity among the professional money managers we track. In order to minimize this risk we decided to look at the high-yield companies, which have earned the trust of more hedge funds that we track than other similar stocks.

Luisa:
About the SYNERGY Bioabsorbable Polymer Stent The SYNERGY Stent is the only bioabsorbable polymer stent available to patients in the U.S.

Vita:
The SYNERGY Stent is designed for faster and sustained healing by eliminating long term polymer exposure.

Antonette:
Long-term exposure to the polymer may cause inflammation, which delays healing and has been associated with complications, including neoatherosclerosis and stent thrombosis.

Tifany:
Existing DES devices reduce coronary restenosis, but the polymer remains on the stent after the drug is delivered.

Shela:
It is designed to enable more rapid and complete arterial healing, and to thereby reduce the risk of complications associated with long-term polymer exposure compared to currently-used drug-eluting stents (DES) with permanent polymers.

Alia buys AA 9.52: Trends there will give you an indication of how the company is doing with its products, and what future earnings might look like.

Second is backlog, which is the number of orders the plane maker has yet to fill. The first is technology; it's a broad space, but Boeing needs to be at the cutting edge, or it will quickly become less relevant. If you're looking at Boeing, though, there are a few things you'll want to keep in mind. However, the company's commercial aviation business made up roughly two-thirds of its revenues in 2014. So, as the future of aviation goes, so must go Boeing, since it's effectively building that future as we speak. It also works closely with the U.S. government in the military space and even NASA.


Jade:
And for that, you can't find a better option than Boeing, essentially one of a very small handful consumer aircraft manufacturers in the world.

Bobbye:
The same is true for most public airports in the developed world, but it's not nearly as true in the developing world, where air travel is still, pardon the pun, taking off.

Solange buys DLTR 66.95: Dollar Tree expects third-quarter sales to more than double, to a range of $4.78 billion-$4.87 billion.

Dollar Tree is spending much more on renovating stores and improving merchandise than it originally expected to, and the effects are likely to be felt for some time. Things are simply not going as smoothly as the company anticipated when it made the deal. It seems that Dollar Tree assumed it could simply rebanner existing Family Dollar stores under the new name and bring customers back to the stores. Last quarter, Dollar Tree's gross margin fell to 28.4% year over year, a nearly 6-percentage-point year-over-year contraction. One reason for such a deterioration in profitability is that Dollar Tree's margins are declining substantially with Family Dollar in tow.


Lura:
Dollar Tree's stock fell 9% after the company reported its second-quarter earnings results on Sept. 1. Sales grew 48% year over year, to $3.01 billion in total sales, which looks outstanding.

For the last quarter, the retailer reported comparative sales growth of 2.4%, but Credit Suisse believes the growth will be restricted to 1-2% for next couple of quarters after acquiring Family Dollar.

Reba:
The analyst states that the retailer is one of the few that have had positive traffic and market share gains in recent times.

Roni:
The analyst believes that the multiple is justified given the strength in the long-term thesis of the retailer.

Martha:

Evon buys CHTR 183.14: The market continues to remain in support of the merger.

The Bright House Networks part of the deal is valued by Charter at $10.4 billion and the transaction will take place in conjunction with the Charter and Time Warner Cable acquisition.

Pamala sells PMT 15.36: Discounts to net asset value/book value are nothing out of the ordinary in the mortgage REIT sector, but PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust is not your average mortgage REIT that simply invests in a portfolio of residential mortgage-backed securities.

But there is yet another reason why I like PMT now that the shares has sold off in response to softer-than-expected first and second quarter earnings: A low valuation relative to book value. I have covered PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust quite a few times this year and actually considered adding the specialty finance company to my $100,000 high-yield income portfolio in April. PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's book value in the second quarter was down 1.4% q/q to $20.39 per share. In the first quarter of 2015, PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust's book value decreased 2.4% q/q to $20.68 per share. The first two fiscal quarters of 2015 were weak, and the company's share price reflects that.
