All of WisdomTree's domestic dividend funds are now on monthly distributions as DTD, DLN, DON, and DES join DTN and DHS, which changed to a monthly schedule over the summer. (PR)
1 Comment [Financials] - Friday, June 8, 2012, 12:31 PM Dividends may not be a free lunch, but WisdomTree research shows the highest quintile of payers outperformed the S&P 500 by 2.5%/year over the last half century, and with less beta. Even the 2nd highest quintile performed 2% better/year than the S&P. (a sampling) Comment! [Quick Ideas]
- Thursday, June 7, 2012, 3:46 PM Seeing a huge surge of interest in "esoteric" investments (MLPs to name one) paying fat yields, one financial adviser sees the instruments approaching bubble territory. No such froth is evident in plain-vanilla dividend payers, VIG lagging the SPY for the last 2 years. Comment! [Quick Ideas]
- Saturday, June 2, 2012, 10:00 AM Pass on the "ice cream" and focus on the "spinach," writes Brendan Conway, noting the S&P's high-yield stocks are trading at their greatest premium to the steady dividend growers in at least 20 years. High yields may presage low future dividend growth, make the stock more susceptible to rising interest rates, and will get hurt more in event of a tax hike. Possible picks: VIG, SDY. 2 Comments [Quick Ideas]
- Tuesday, May 29, 2012, 3:09 PM Investors in a defensive mood can always turn to dividend stock plays, writes Russ Koesterich. Indices of dividend stocks have volatility of just 80% or less than the S&P 500. And don't forget emerging markets, where dividend indices also exhibit lower volatility than the broad markets in which they reside. 1 Comment
- Tuesday, March 27, 2012, 8:07 AM In a "mildly reflating" world where deleveraging continues, Bill Gross suggests shorter-duration inflation protected bonds, dividend vs. growth stocks (also developing world vs. developed), and supply constrained commodities. Most of all, beware of levered strategies promising "double-digit returns that are difficult in a delevering world." 2 Comments
- Saturday, March 10, 2012, 8:15 AM Barbara Kollmeyer highlights five of the cheapest dividend stocks from key global industries - stocks that may not be the biggest multinationals, but sport significant dividends and value: MT, FTE, DCM, SU and WBK. 6 Comments [Quick Ideas]
- Monday, January 23, 2012, 9:14 AM The number of S&P 500 companies with a dividend yield greater than the 10-year Treasury has soared back to the level it stood at during winter 2009's epochal bottom. Whatever else is going on in the world, when measured against current interest rates, big cap stocks are cheap. Comment! [Quick Ideas]
- Saturday, August 27, 2011, 8:25 AM The environment seems to favor healthy dividend stocks, and investors are rushing in ($12.6B in inflows to dividend-stock ETFs this year) - but they may be a "little overrated." Beware dividend traps, an average yield that still isn't that high, and shares that will miss out on any big rally. (More ideas in Investing for Income) 18 Comments
