Dividend Stocks To Buy?
Rising Oil Prices Are Creating A New Dividend Opportunity
In late December and early January, WTI crude oil traded around $55 per barrel. The war against Iran sent oil into a parabolic rise. As I write this, WTI oil is trading for $94.65 a barrel—up 70% from where the prices were at the start of the year. The primary cause of the price increase […]
How To Play The Oil Price Spike For 8.2% Dividends (Hint: It’s Not Oil Stocks)
The Iran conflict has, of course, sent oil prices spiking. And the tensions in the region are unlikely to end soon. Wherever you stand on the conflict, let’s set that aside for a moment and look at the situation through an investment lens—specifically what it means for those invested in oil, either directly or through […]
5.6% Dividend Yield During Tax Season
We’re right in the middle of tax season. Some of you are already done. You’re the lucky ones! The rest of us are trying to finish before the April 15 deadline. If you need some help, one company is available. And if you need help with dividend income, it’s got you covered there as well. […]
5 Small Stocks, 5 Super-Sized Payouts Of Up To 11%
What’s better than getting to buy 6.6%-11% yields at discounted prices? How about snapping those sweet dividend payers while momentum is on your side? Late in 2025, I wrote about a “small-cap reawakening”—a bullish tailwind from retreating Federal Reserve rates that had begun to propel smaller companies forward and could continue well into 2026. So […]
Industry With High Dividend Yields Is Booming
The stock market is down so far in 2026. But one industry is really taking off, especially in the last few weeks. Shipping, especially maritime shipping, has been on a tear. Over the past 6 months, maritime shipping stocks are up almost 30%. The S&P 500 is only up 4%, with most of those gains […]
Regional Bank With Double-Digit Dividend Growth
I really like regional banks. They have a lot of room to expand. And they don’t get the attention of the massive banks, so you can really find some diamonds out there. One regional bank should’ve been on my radar a long time ago. I used to work with them! Hancock Whitney (ticker: HWC) is […]
The Robots Are Coming For Insurance (And Paying Us 8.3% Dividends, Too)
There’s a group of stocks out there that most people think yield just 2%—or less. But they’re way off. In reality, these “elite” payers yield 2X, 3X—and in the case of a stock we’ll talk about below, even nearly 4X that. I’m talking about a tidy 8.3% shareholder yield (remember that phrase) here. This one has another advantage […]
A 33% Dividend Hike For An Unknown Stock
The company I’m about to talk about is probably one of the smallest you’ll see discussed here. It’s only worth around $330 million. Usually, I like dividend companies worth billions of dollars and avoid the little guys. But I’m going to make an exception. Quad/Graphics Inc. (ticker: QUAD) just raised its dividend by 33% to […]
AI Rocked Software Stocks. These 7.5% Divvies Are Cashing In
A major AI upgrade just crushed software stocks. We’re going to cash in with two “volatility-loving” dividends paying 7.5%+. Just days ago, new AI tools were rolled out that let bots make entire apps by themselves. It’s not a big leap from there to the question a lot of people are asking now: “Why would […]
A Golden 4x Dividend Hike
I’ve seen some companies with amazing dividend growth. But a mining company just did something I’ve never seen before. We’ll get to it in a minute. Mining stocks have gone crazy in the last year. The price of gold is really driving the stock price gains for some of these mining companies. In the last […]
