Dividend Yield
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 10% Dividend Growth Story Few Investors Are Watching
Pure-play energy refiners receive little investor attention. When people think about energy stocks, they usually think of large, global, full-spectrum players like Exxon Mobil (XOM) and Chevron (CVX); however, income-focused investors are aware of midstream companies with attractive yields and growing dividends. Refining companies, which turn crude oil into fuels, are referred to as downstream […]
4 REITs. 4 Monthly Dividend Programs. 4 Massive Yields Of Up To 11.7%
Quarterly-paying dividend stocks? Ha! We save those for the poor vanilla investors. Give us the monthly payers—those that dish divvies every 30 days. Today we’ll discuss four monthly payers yielding between 5% and 11% per year. An average yield of 7.9%. This means a $500,000 investment portfolio can buy this four-pack, earn $39,500 per year in […]
High Dividend Yield (5%+) With High Growth (9%+)
Most dividend stocks have a trade-off between yield and growth. Companies with high dividend yields generally don’t grow their dividends a lot. It makes sense why. Those companies are paying out a lot of their earnings in dividends rather than reinvesting to grow the business. It isn’t a bad thing, just different. On the flip […]
A Utility With Rare 6% Dividend Growth
Utility stocks are great for dividend investors. They’re very stable relative to the rest of the stock market. Plus, they pay very high dividend yields. However, utility stocks aren’t known for their dividend growth. But there are exceptions. Alliant Energy (ticker: LNT) is an electric and natural gas utility in the Midwest. Alliant isn’t particularly […]
Two New ETFs Track Hedge Funds, Pay 15%
My database of option strategy ETFs now tops 120 funds including many funds from different companies that duplicate their competitors. My interest piques when a fund sponsor develops a unique strategy. Recently, VistaShares launched a couple of ETFs that offer high yields and aim to track returns from famous hedge funds. The VistaShares Target 15 […]
Amazing Retailer With An 8% Dividend Yield
Retailers are popular companies for many people. But they’re not very exciting for dividend investors. Why? Because retailers aren’t known for paying dividends. State Street SPDR S&P Retail ETF (ticker: XRT) only has a 1.3% dividend yield, which is one of the lowest among State Street’s sector ETFs. However, just because retailers don’t pay high […]
