Big Dividends From Small Places

venturing a little beyond the popular megacaps can bring outsized rewards to income-seeking investors. And you don't have to sacrifice much of what's great about investing in the big players. For example, here are three attractive dividends from successful mid-cap companies: Dr Pepper Snapple (NYSE: DPS), Molson Coors (NYSE: TAP) and Clorox (NYSE: CLX).

If I had to choose just one of these little guys, I'd go with Dr Pepper Snapple -- and not just because I drink way too much Diet Dr Pepper in a given week. The company's hefty yield makes it an attractive dividend investment. And its strong profitability is evidence of pricing power that's comparable with the best in the business. With shares valued at just 1.5 times sales and 15 times earnings, Dr Pepper looks downright cheap. The company might be small compared with Coca-Cola or PepsiCo, but the investment potential is anything but.
