28 Prime-Buy August Reader Dividend Dogs

Summary

• July 29 - August 31, 2022 readers mentioned 38 equities in their comments. Some lamented bad-news, so bad-news investments (rogues) mixed with (mostly) favorites. (Thus, these are ReFa/Ro.).
• Ten analyst-target-estimated TOP-NET-GAIN reader fave/rogues, T, PNNT, MPW, SWK, RC, TRN, PACW, VALE, SBLK, & MITT averaged 64.86% net gains from data collected 9/2/22.
• Ten analyst-target-augured TOP-PRICE-UPSIDE reader faves & rogues (ReFa/Ro) were: MPW, MSFT, SWK, TRN, PACW, DDOG, VALE, CBIO, SBLK, and MITT boasting a 60.49% average target price upside estimate.
• By YIELD, the following ReFa/Ro made the top ten: DLY; ETJ; DSL; FSK; VALE; RVT; RC; MITT; OXLC; SBLK. They averaged 13.99% annual yield. (Three stocks made all three lists this month: MITT; SBLK; VALE).
• $5k invested in the lowest-priced five of these top-yield ReFa/Ro dividend dogs showed 31.96% more net-gain than from $5k invested in all ten. The little (lower-priced) ReFa/Ro dogs recovered their lead for this pack through August.
