Olivier Le Moal Realty Income Corporation (O) is "The Monthly Dividend Company". It is a property REIT that invests in a diverse portfolio of properties using "triple-net" leases.

For landlords, it removes the necessity of having local infrastructure or hiring local property manageme ...

The first screen that most dividend investors use is often based on dividend yield. The cutoff is normally on the low side, say 4%, so you limit your candidate list to high-yield stocks. However, after some point, higher yields don't necessarily indicate desirable opportunities. That's the case with Annaly Capital (NLY -0.95%) and its dividend yield of 12.8%. Sure, that's a huge yield, but you need to understand these three facts before you buy it. For starters, mortgage bonds are traded all day long while ...

Two high-octane dividend stocks -- with an average yield of 9.69% -- are ripe for the picking by opportunistic income seekers. Over the last century, the stock market has stood on a pedestal above all other asset classes. While investing in Treasury bonds, housing, gold, and oil would have increased your nominal wealth, none of these other asset classes has come anywhere close to the average annual returns delivered by stocks over the very long term. What makes Wall Street so special is its diversity of inv ...

Before you get sucked in by Annaly Capital's huge 13%-plus dividend yield, you'll want to take a look at the risk of a dividend cut. If there's one thing most dividend investors try to avoid at all costs, it is a dividend trap (a high-yield stock that is about to cut its dividend). But that's the past -- what about the future? Well, things aren't exactly rosy today. For example, Annaly's book value (basically the value of its mortgage bond portfolio) rose between the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first qua ...
