Building my dividend portfolio, which one would you pick?

I have been building my portfolio this year and it is doing quite well. Currently my focus is diversifying my portfolio. I have some nice performers in my portfolio like $BESI (+0,7 %) , $ABN (+1,86 %) , $EVO (-0,31 %) , $VLK (+0,34 %) . A few others are still underperforming for now but are known stable companies like $ALV (+0,08 %) and $TTE (-0,21 %) . My focus now is also a bit towards US stocks due to dollar diversification since I am mainly invested in Europe, Switserland and Scandinavia. I am always looking for companies with strong balance sheets, low debt ratio's compared to their peers, growth, dividend and maybe undervalued. One great example is $EVO (-0,31 %) which I expect to launch🚀 in the coming year.


I'm looking at three dividend stocks right now: $PFE (-0,14 %), $AEP (-0,63 %) and $ENEL (-0,16 %). They each have different profiles, and I'm trying to figure out which could be the most attractive at this point.


$PFE (-0,14 %) seems undervalued. The stock is still well below its pre-COVID levels, the balance sheet is strong, and the dividend is over 5 percent. The real question is whether the company can return to solid growth with its pipeline.


$AEP (-0,63 %) is a US utility with stable cash flow, a solid dividend track record, and relatively low debt. It doesn’t move fast, but it offers a good level of reliability and income, especially if rates come down.


$ENEL (-0,16 %) is more of a question mark. The dividend is growing by nearly 9 percent a year and paid in multiple installments, which I like. But the stock is already up over 20 percent this year. Debt is quite high, and revenue growth is limited. I like the exposure to renewables, but I'm not sure if this is the right entry point.

  • What do you think of these names?
  • Any clear favourites? Or red flags?


Also curious: what are your expectations for the USD-EUR exchange rate in the second half of the year? I'm considering the FX angle too, since two of these names are US-listed.

In the dividend stock department I currently have $MUV2 , $BATS , $RIO and $WPC .
I also have $TRMD A and $PETR3 - but these are more risky.

As soon as I have some money I plan to add $PFE . From the banks I am looking into $HSBA and/or $ING . I also like $KHC .

Actually I do like $ENEL - i have it on my watchlist.

If one does not want to go into individual shares one might want to take a look at $JEGP or $IAPD

Did you ever consider $MELE the Belgian chip stock ?
Never heard of it. I will look into it. Thanks.
I just looked at it and it seems to be a strong company. It is certainly a candidate for my portfolio. I believe the potential in terms of stock price is 20 to 30% upside which is interesting and the dividend 5%+ is also good. The only risk is the exposure to the automotive industry which is really difficult in Europe currently. But based on the past 5 years a solid stock.
