Stocks Going Ex Dividend the Second Week of October

Here is our latest update on the stock trading technique called ‘Buying Dividends,’ also commonly referred to as ‘Dividend Capture.’ This is the process of buying stocks before the ex dividend date and selling the stock shortly after the ex date at about the same price, yet still being entitled to the dividend. This technique generally works only in bull markets, and can work in flat or choppy markets, but you need to avoid the technique during bear markets.
In order to be entitled to the dividend, you have to buy the stock before the ex-dividend date, and you can’t sell the stock until after the ex date. The actual dividend may not be paid for another few weeks.
WallStreetNewsNetwork.com has compiled a downloadable and sortable list of the stocks going ex dividend in the near future. The list contains many dividend paying companies, lots with market caps over $500 million, and yields over 2%. Here are a few examples showing the stock symbol, the ex-dividend date, and the dividend amount.

Stocks that Pay Dividends Monthly: Return Your Capital Faster

It doesn't matter if you are retired and want dividends regularly or if you are currently employed and just want to supplement your monthly income. Monthly dividend stock may be just what you are looking for. Though these investments are often referred to as stocks, they are technically closed end bond funds, real estate investment trusts, oil income trusts, and closed end income stock funds that pay dividends monthly.

The advantage of monthly dividend investments include faster return your capital, and if the dividends are reinvested, can generate greater compounding than quarterly payments. In addition, the monthly payments can help reduce volatility. These monthly dividend investments are available at WallStreetNewsNetwork.com, which has a list of over 100 different companies that pay dividends monthly, many of which have high yields in excess of 7%.

One example is the New America High Income Fund (HYB), which pays a generous yield of 7.4%, with dividends generated monthly. The stock has been trading at around its net asset value, and charges a management fee of 0.85%. The fund was founded in 1987 and is managed by T. Rowe Price Associates.

Do you think real estate has bottomed out? Check out LMP Real Estate Income Fund Inc. (RIT) which is an exchange traded fund that invests in real estate related companies including real estate investment trusts. It carries a yield of 5.5%, and has paid dividends since 2002. It is trading at a discount to net asset value. The management fee is on the high side at 1.2%

Gas Natural Inc. (EGAS) distributes natural gas in Montana, Wyoming, North Carolina, and Maine. It was founded in 1909. The stock pays a yield of 5.8% and sports a forward price to earnings ratio of 13.9.

Pengrowth Energy Trust (PGH) is a Canadian oil royalty income trust that pays a very high yield of 9.2%. The company, which was founded in 1988, explores, develops, and produces oil and natural gas reserves in western Canada.

When deciding which monthly dividend investments to put money into, investors should avoid investments with high management fees, limited liquidity, ones that trade at a large premium to net asset value, and the ones using excessive leverage. The municipal bond closed end funds may trigger the Alternative Minimum Tax; check with your accountant before investing.

A list of over a hundred monthly dividend stocks, including over 50 with yields of 6% or more, is available at WallStreetNewsNetwork.com. Keep in mind that very high yields may not be sustainable.

The Advantage of Monthly Dividends Over Quarterly Dividends

There are several advantages to receiving monthly dividends over quarterly dividends:
1. compounding takes place quicker
2. the invested capital is returned faster
3. there is usually less price volatility of the investment
4. many of monthly dividend investments pay dividends that are tax free.

According to the database list at WallStreetNewsNetwork.com, there are about a couple hundred different companies that pay dividends monthly, many of which have fairly high yields. Although these investments are often referred to as stocks, that term is used loosely. These investments are real estate investment trusts, oil income trusts, closed end bond funds, and closed end income stock funds, which pay dividends every month.

An example is Gas Natural Inc. (EGAS), formerly known as Energy, Inc., It is a distributor of natural gas in Montana, Wyoming, North Carolina, and Maine. It was founded in 1909. The stock pays a yield of 4.6% and sports a price to earnings ratio of 12.5.

LMP Real Estate Income Fund Inc. (RIT), is an exchange traded fund that invests in real estate related companies including real estate investment trusts. It sports a yield of 6.8%, and has paid dividends since 2002. It is trading at a slight discount to net asset value. The management fee is 0.61%.

Calamos Convertible & High Income (CHY) has a decent yield of 7.3%. However, the management fee is fairly high at 1.13%. This CEF, founded in 2003, invests in high yield fixed income securities and convertible securities.

The MFS Multimarket Income Trust (MMT) pays a yield of 7.7%. The stock trades at a 9.2% to net asset value. The company, which has been around since 1987, has a management fee of 0.85%.

Baytex Energy (BTE) is an investment trust which generates income from petroleum and natural gas properties. It generates a yield of 4.4%, and has been paying monthly since 2006. The company trades at 20.3 times forward earnings.

Realty Income Corp. (O), one of the few stocks with a single letter stock ticker symbol, yields 5.1%. This real estate investment trust which specializes in commercial retail real estate, has been around since 1969. The stock trades at 15.9 times forward earnings.

Provident Energy Trust (PVX) is a Canadian income trust which generates a yield of 6.3% through the marketing of natural gas liquids. It was founded in 1993. Canada's new legislation which taxes trust income goes into effect this year. This would tax the trusts at the corporate level in addition to the shareholder level. However, this taxation is probably already built into the price of these Canadian trusts.

The monthly dividend investments you should avoid are:
1. the ones with high management fees
2. the ones with limited liquidity and which trade very few shares each day
3. the ones that trade at a premium to net asset value
4. the ones using excessive leverage
5. for municipal bond closed end funds, beware of the Alternative Minimum Tax

To see the list of about a couple hundred monthly dividend stocks, including many that have yields of 6% or more, go to WallStreetNewsNetwork.com. Remember, very high yields may not be sustainable.
