Back in July and September I highlighted dividend stocks with safe payouts and the potential for capital appreciation. This month, I'm highlighting three more dividend stocks, focusing on more speculative opportunities with which the average investor is likely unfamiliar. Bear in mind that these companies are rather small, having a combined market capitalization under $1 billion. The size of these firms will likely provide for increased equity volatility relative to traditionally popular income stocks such as Procter & Gamble (PG), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), or PepsiCo (PEP).
In addition, the business models of these companies likely provide more risk than the stable "blue chips" traditionally touted for income investors. However, strong balance sheets and/or turnaround possibilities may provide for capital appreciation in addition to income generation. Long-term income-focused investors may find some unknown gems on this list, with the opportunity to increase yield and diversify portfolios.
