  • Hi, My name is Aaron and Im with Dividend Stocks
    Research, today were reviewing our recently
    published article

  • Stocks That Pay Monthly Dividends

6
  • Do you ever open up your electric bill and find
    yourself in a state of shock?
  • Not me... its pretty much the same every month.
    The only real curve I was thrown came a few
    months ago.

7
  • Thats when a State of California windfall, the
    California Climate Credit drove my bill down to
    12.66.
  • Not bad, huh?

8
  • (Not unless you do the math and rack up all the
    taxes you pay to pick up the tab for this
    handout.) In any event, theres no way Ill ever
    see a 12.66 bill from San Diego Gas and Electric
    every month.

9
  • Especially not with the shellacking the company
    will be hit with when it shuts down and cleans up
    the doomed San Onofre Nuclear plant. But if I
    want, heres something I can see every month. A
    dividend check coming in.

10
  • But if I want, heres something I can see every
    month. A dividend check coming in. Not all
    dividends are paid quarterly, even though thats
    the norm.

11
  • And not all investors are reinvesting
    dividends... I know a lot of you like the income.
    So heres the lowdown on stocks that pay monthly
    dividends.

12
  • The Beautiful Thing About Stocks That Pay Monthly
    Dividends

13
  • The big benefit is simple. Your investments set
    you up for dividend checks coming in that line up
    with your bills. (Keep in mind that most bond
    investors are usually paid just twice a year.)

14
  • So you get a leg up with monthly dividend stocks
    right off the bat. Your fixed expenses... the
    cable bill, the car insurance, even your
    mortgage.

15
  • Set up your portfolio so you have stocks paying
    dividends every month that cover these expenses.
  • Dont get me wrong.

16
  • Theres nothing wrong with bonds and theres
    nothing wrong with quarterly dividends. You can
    do the same thing by planning to always have
    money in the bank for the next three months
    expenses.

17
  • But stocks that pay monthly dividends can give
    you a clean and precise way to do this. Its
    like locking in your own payday. The only thing
    you want to keep in mind...

18
  • dont buy a stock just because it pays a monthly
    dividend. You want to shake it down for safety.
    Look for a decent yield, dividend growth, and all
    the things you would do with any other dividend
    stock.

19
  • Where To Find Stocks That Pay Monthly Dividends

20
  • A good place to look is in the real estate world,
    the Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs.) Youll
    find some good ones that pay monthly. And when
    you know how to find the best stock for dividend
    income, take these rules and apply them to REITs.

21
  • Theres a good reason why a REIT makes sense for
    monthly dividends. Its got rent coming in every
    month. All the real estate it owns, whether were
    talking office buildings or apartments, the REIT
    makes money with monthly rent.

22
  • Sure, youve got some exceptions... the REITs
    that specialize in a certain type of property
    like a hospital, a resort, or a hotel, but for
    the most part, because of leases, youre looking
    at monthly income coming in.

23
  • Other places to find monthly dividends...
    Companies that make loans, the so-called
    Business Development companies.

24
  • One of them is Prospect Capital PSEC and another
    is Main Street Capital MAIN. Another place to
    look is the world of preferred stocks.

25
  • Preferred Stocks That Pay Monthly Dividends

26
  • Most of these pay a dividend on either the 15th
    of the month or on the last day of the month. You
    can find a company like Evolution Petroleum
    Corporation EPM that pays a monthly dividend.

27
  • It slices off 1/12th of the 8.5 annual yield and
    cuts shareholders a check. (The stock isnt the
    regular Evolution Petroleum stock, but the
    perpetual non-convertible 8.5 Series A
    Cumulative Preferred Stock.)

28
  • Sounds pretty complicated. Whats all that? When
    a company issues both preferred stock and
    ordinary stock, it makes sure dividends are paid
    first on the preferred stock.

29
  • When a preferred stock is cumulative, this means
    if the company misses a dividend in one quarter,
    it needs to make up for the missed dividend down
    the road, in a future quarter.

30
  • A non-cumulative stock means once the dividend is
    missed, tough luck. It doesnt have to be made
    up later. A non-convertible stock is typically
    issued with common stock when a company raises
    money with a venture capital firm.

31
  • Kind of boring, but important. Thats because
    when you invest in a stock that pays monthly
    dividends, you want to know what kind of a stock
    it is.

32
  • Another Good Thing About Stocks That Pay Monthly
    Dividends

33
  • Theres usually less of a price swing around the
    ex-dividend date. You can see price swings
    fairly often when an ex-dividend date involves a
    stock that pays dividends quarterly.

34
  • You typically see the ex-dividend date fall two
    business days before the stocks recorddate. When
    you buy your dividend stock on or after the
    ex-dividend date, youre not paid the current
    dividend...

35
  • youll need to wait until next time. The person
    who sells the stock pockets the dividend.

36
  • The Problem With Monthly Dividends

37
  • Just because you invest in stocks that pay
    monthly dividends doesnt mean youre any safer
    because a check comes in more often.

38
  • Theres an office on Camelback Road in Phoenix
    that used to send out monthly dividend checks
    like clockwork.
  • Shareholders were delighted.

39
  • Then, last fall, American Realty Capital
    Properties ARCP admitted to misstated financial
    results in the first two quarters of 2014. If
    you figure that sounds like cooking the books,
    Im with you.

40
  • Basically, the company tried to make it look like
    8.5 million it sunk into sprucing up the bosss
    mansion in Newport Rhode Island was actually a
    legitimate business expense. Whatever you call
    it, investors called foul and ran for the exits.

41
  • Then, American Realty Capital Properties stopped
    paying monthly dividends... actually it stopped
    paying dividends period... in December, 2014. But
    the storys far from over.

42
  • Six weeks ago, the REIT started calling itself
    Vereit, and adopted the ticker VER. New name,
    new opportunities to lure in dividend investors
    who dont do their due diligence, and know what
    happened. This chart tells you all you need to
    know...

44
  • You might want to steer clear of this train
    wreck. Vereit is a train thats hauling some
    questionable baggage. When youre thinking about
    dividend stocks, ask yourself if you really need
    monthly dividends.

45
  • If you get a check every 3 months instead of
    every month, is it really that big of a deal?
    Youre better off playing it safe, and putting a
    premium on how solid the company is instead of
    how often it pays a dividend.

46
  • I dont know about you, but Im not terribly
    interested in picking up the tab for some jokers
    mansion in Newport, Rhode Island.

47
  • Not unless hes going to make a special one time
    payment and let me use the place for free next
    summer.
