The world is hungry for yield. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note is just 2.1%, while the yield on longer-term U.S. government debt is just a tad better at about 2.8%. Meanwhile, the average yield you get on dividend stocks in the S&P 500 is just 1.8%. So, is it any wonder why income investors are seeking alternatives to the paltry yields being served by traditional bond and dividend stocks sources?
If you’re a yield-hungry investor, you must consider trying some different dividend cuisine – and one type of high-yield cooking that pleases the palate is private equity dividend stocks. For yield-oriented investors, this structure means some big dividend payouts. And, during the right market conditions (such as those of the past two years), many private equity stalwarts also have delivered big in terms of share price performance. Two of my favorite private equity dividend stocks are The Blackstone Group L.P. (BX), and KKR & Co. L.P. (KKR).
