Stocks Going Ex Dividend the First Week of August

  

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 yield.

Top Yielding Canadian Oil Royalty Trusts

The Canadian Oil Royalty Trusts have been popular due to their high income, their monthly distributions, and possible tax sheltering of their dividends. However, these trusts have become scarce, due to takeovers and termination of payouts for some trusts. In addition, some companies have converted to regular operating businesses.

These Canadian Income Trusts, also known as Canadian Oil Income Trusts or Canadian Royalty Trusts generally pay a very high income. The trusts pass through all their earnings and deductions from oil and gas wells to the trust holders, similar to real estate investment trusts. There is no taxation at the corporate level since they are structured as trusts. Also, a portion of the dividends may be non-taxable due to depletion and depreciation deductions.

You should be aware that the Canadian government came out with a plan to tax all Canadian trusts at the corporate level beginning in the year 2011.

290 Stocks That Pay Dividends Monthly

Two years ago, when I first started tracking the monthly dividend stocks, there were over 350 different securities that paid monthly. Since that time, the number has dropped to 290 due to mergers and liquidations, but that is still plenty to choose from. Technically, these stocks are REITS, oil income trusts, and closed end funds, which pay dividends every month. The advantages to having monthly dividends versus quarterly or annual dividend stocks are:

1. Your invested capital is returned faster.
2. Compounding happens quicker.
3. There is generally less volatility.
4. Many of these pay tax free income.

Here are a few examples:

Calamos Convertible & High Income CHY 9.3%
Enerplus Resources Fund ERF 9.3%
BlackRock Senior High Income Fund ARK 9.1%
Nuveen Quality Preferred Income Fund JTP 9.1%
Reaves Utility Income Fund UTG 9.0%
DWS High Income Trust KHI 8.7%
MFS Intermediate Income Trust MIN 8.6%
