Double-Digit Dividend Growth From A Surprising Industry
Some industries in our economy are doing really well. Anything related to AI is booming! But some parts of our economy are lagging behind. Honestly, they’re downright awful. There has been so much written about the demise of department stores, I probably couldn’t add any new information. Sears is no longer in business. JC Penney […]
An Incredibly Popular ETF With A 4.8% Dividend Yield Is Jumping!
I don’t usually talk about Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs). ETFs are very popular because they’re easy and provide a lot of diversification. However, there are two problems with ETFs. First, you’re paying fees to the managers of the ETF. I’d rather the fees get paid to me in dividends! Second, you’re trusting someone else with your […]
This Dividend Stock Is Down 30%… Will It Rebound?
The stock market is at all-time highs. The gains are largely driven by tech and AI hype. But dividend stocks aren’t too far behind. The Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF (ticker: VIG) and Vanguard High Dividend Yield Index ETF (ticker: VYM) are two of the most popular dividend ETFs with investors. And both are near their […]
3 “Sleep-Well” Monthly Dividends Averaging 10%+
Last Friday’s jobs report confirmed what we contrarians have been discussing for months now—thanks to AI, employers no longer need to hire more employees to grow. Bosses simply need to implement AI tools to grow their businesses. The machines are a managerial dream. Once trained they are, in many cases, better, faster and cheaper than people. Robots always report for […]
Best Banks With 4% Yields
We haven’t really talked about banks recently. Outside of utilities, banks have the highest concentration of dividend payers. Banks love paying dividends! Banks are where we keep our money, and they’re highly regulated… so they tend to be safer investments than other stocks (like tech companies). And as a dividend investor, I like my investments […]
A 50% Dividend Cut! I Hope You Don’t Own This Stock…
More bad news for dividend investors. A $16 billion company in the S&P 500 just cut its dividend. And it wasn’t a small cut… The dividend was cut in half! Who’s the offending company? It’s Dow, Inc. (ticker: DOW), a chemical company founded in the 19th century. Dow is lowering its dividend payment to $0.35 […]
August 2025 – 3 Hidden Stocks With Amazing Profit And High Yields
Finding companies with high dividend yields is easy. Just use a free screener on Yahoo Finance or another financial site, and you can search for companies with high dividend yields. However, high yields aren’t everything. Especially if a company doesn’t make enough money to keep paying such high dividends. The last thing you want is […]
A Higher Dividend Every Quarter
Companies work hard to attract new investors… And dividend stocks play the same game. Some dividend stocks pay every month. Other dividend stocks have really high yields. Others are growing their dividends quickly, targeting investors looking for more cash in the future. But one dividend stock is doing something a little different. One company is […]
These Two Dividend ETFs Are The Ultimate Hack For Consistent Yield
Looking for consistent yield? These two ETFs are hard to beat. In volatile markets, investors often flock to the safety and security of dividend stocks. That’s because stocks that pay out dividends are typically those of established, well-capitalized companies that have proven track records of generating earnings, cash flows, and navigating volatile markets. The dividends […]
This Dividend Is Exploding… In A Good Way!
Dividend growth is great. It ensures the cash we get in our bank account covers our expenses. And, it’s getting expensive out there! I love companies with consistent dividend growth. I don’t need a lot, but if a stock grows its dividend by the same amount every year, then I’m a happy camper. There’s only […]
