The DZ Bank analysts have drawn up two lists of shares that they consider to be particularly attractive. For more defensive investors and for investors who rely on continuous cash flows, they recommend the so-called "dividend aristocrats": In other words, companies that have regularly paid and raised dividends.

Top dividend aristocrats:

Pfizer $PFE (-0,75%), Verizon $VZ (+1,21%), BNP Paribas $BNP (+1,18%)Zurich Insurance $ZURN (+0,44%), Enel $ENEL (+1,57%), Sanofi $SAN (-0,37%), Hannover Re $HNR1 (+1,13%) , Man and Machine $MUM (-0,58%), Generali $G (+0,66%) and Allianz $ALV (+1,65%)

Another list has been compiled for investors with a somewhat higher risk appetite: Stocks with attractive dividend yields and additional share price potential. These not only pay a good dividend of at least three percent, but could also increase significantly in price in the future. However, the continuity of dividends in the past plays a lesser role - and this strategy is correspondingly riskier.

Top dividend rockets:

Man and machine $MUM (-0,58%) , Cancom $COK (+1,16%), Bastei Lübbe $BST (+2,89%), Sixt $SIX2 (-1,09%), Kontron $KTN (+0,82%), Fresenius Medical Care $FME (+1,61%), Vonovia $VNA (+0,18%), Hawesko $HAW (-0,73%), ElringKlinger $ZIL2 (+0,12%) and Hannover Re $HNR1 (+1,13%)

Yesterday, I took the opportunity to selectively increase my positions in business development companies (BDCs). In the current market situation, these stocks continue to be a strong pillar for me to keep the monthly cash flow stable.

The purchases in detail:

- Main Street Capital ($MAIN (-1,19%)
): 11 shares at €49.90. An absolute quality stock in the sector that is a fixture in my portfolio.

- Hercules Capital ($HTGC (-0,83%)
): 89 shares at €13.43. The exposure to tech and life science financing is a perfect fit for diversification.

- Ares Capital ($ARCC (+1,12%)
): 70 shares at €16.28. As an industry leader, this is the foundation in the BDC sector for me.

A total of just under € 2,900 has flowed into the sector. The dividend machine is running! ⚙️💸

What's next?

The focus is now shifting back to quality and growth. My next buy candidates on the watchlist are currently Allianz $ALV (+1,65%)
Microsoft $MSFT (-0,3%)
and Amazon $AMZN (+2,51%)
. I'm just waiting for the right entry point to further consolidate the basis in my portfolio.

Which stocks are currently at the top of your watchlist? 👇

After buying a put on silver on the 26th (price: EUR 2.10, DE000GV1KN65), I sold the first tranche on Friday at EUR 5.16 and the second tranche today at EUR 9.50. I still hold just under a third of the position. I still hold just under a third of the position.

If it goes below 70 euros today, I will probably sell the rest.

It's quite possible that it could go down even further. But due to the implied vola, the bond is very expensive without it and I don't want to run into a situation where small upward movements cause the bond to drop like a stone.

I immediately invest the profit in more $ALV (+1,65%) to push my portfolio a little more into dividends again.

I wish you all a successful trading week!

Which figures do you pay particular attention to?

Salvete, investors!

My name is Automatix - the name says it all.

Like my namesake from the Gallic village, I prefer to focus on craftsmanship, substance and consistency rather than magic potions or short-term success.

I'm 37 (turning 38 this year) and have only been actively investing in the capital market since the end of 2024 - a pretty bumpy journey so far

But my goal has now become clear to me:

long-term wealth accumulation with a focus on dividends.

I am aware that it is ambitious - perhaps even unrealistic - to live entirely from dividends one day.

But it is precisely this idea that drives me, not my promise.

Professionally, I have been working full-time for a large German tech company for 15 years.

Here I have worked my way up from the very bottom - call center supporter to key account manager to my current position as senior project manager - so structured work, long-term thinking and risk assessment are part of my everyday life.

At the same time, I run a family farm as a sideline

• approx. 80% horse boarding (yes, I also ride 🏇)
• approx. 20 % forestry business

This combination of technology, project work and real economic substance also characterizes my investment approach.

Before I became intensively involved with shares, my first major investments were in real assets:

• two apartments (already paid off & rented out)
• a plot of land (financed by rental income) on which one or two apartment buildings are to be built for rent in the future

For me, shares are therefore not a substitute, but a supplement to existing tangible assets.

I invest at least €750 per month, usually more, and focus on:

• 🌍 global ETFs $VWRL (+0,63%) & $TDIV (+0,23%) as a stable foundation
• 🏗️ Individual stocks, deliberately selected, with a focus on Germany & Europe

For individual stocks, I prefer healthy, growing companies.

I prefer dividend growth to high initial yields without substance.

The core of my portfolio will be $SIE (+1,82%) supplemented by stocks such as

$ALV (+1,65%) , $DTE (+0,29%) , $SAP (+1,12%) , $MUV2 (+0,8%) and $DB1 (+1,23%) .

Each position is built up gradually - first €500, then €1,000, and significantly more in the long term.

No more hectic reallocations, no more chasing - just buy and hold!

I was a silent reader here for a long time, but would like to share my thoughts, decisions and learnings in the future - objectively & long-term (if there is interest)

No trading, no noise -

but patience, discipline and a stable anvil 🛠️

I am looking forward to your feedback - constructive criticism is always welcome.

Here's to a good exchange!

$HNR1 (+1,13%)

I recently invested in Hannover Rück SE because I consider the current share price level to be attractive in relation to the operating performance and dividend policy.

Hannover Re is one of the world's largest reinsurers and has been benefiting from a generally improved market environment for some time. Price discipline in the reinsurance market is high, while at the same time demand for reinsurance cover continues to rise. This is having a positive effect on margins and earnings quality.

I am currently particularly impressed by the company's dividend strategy. Following a very strong financial year, a significantly higher dividend has been announced. The combination of basic and special dividends leads to an attractive dividend yield without compromising the Group's capital strength. At the same time, Hannover Re pursues a clearly communicated dividend policy that is geared towards reliability and sustainability.

The company also has a solid balance sheet. The return on equity is well above the company's own targets, and the capitalization provides a sufficient buffer to absorb major losses or volatile years - an important point in the reinsurance industry.

All in all, I currently see Hannover Re as a solid, defensive portfolio component that can impress with both current income and long-term value stability. The entry is based on a long-term investment horizon and a focus on dividend continuity.

I would be interested to hear your current assessment of Hannover Re - especially in comparison with other reinsurers such as Munich Re or international competitors.

I started at €236 and think the price is very fair 😜

I have $ALV (+1,65%) on my watchlist for some time and am currently observing the setback since the beginning of the year.

But I've noticed that very few people here are reporting on $ALV (+1,65%) report?

Why is that?

And do you see good entry opportunities due to the correction?

How do you rate the share in 2026?

@All-in-or-nothing

No. Just a reallocation. $PLTR (+0,16%) I have halved the share of Schneider Electric (still 26% - it used to be more than 30) and added Schneider Electric $SU (+1,12%) as a tech infrastructure play. The rest is still in the ETF, $ALV (+1,65%) and $8001 (-2,76%) distributed.

Further effects: US share reduced from just under 60% to 47%. ETF share increased from just over 38% to just over 40%. ROI since 02/2023 is 51%.
