Investors who prefer to receive income from their stocks likely know of most of the market’s biggest dividend names. When you think of dividend stocks, the usual suspects probably come to mind, such as ExxonMobil or Johnson & Johnson. Indeed, the large-cap universe holds many of the market’s well-known, successful dividend payers.
What you might not know is that many of the market’s smaller publicly traded companies, those with market capitalizations of $2 billion or less, pay dividends too: For pet lovers PetMed Express (NASDAQ: PETS), Your own personal dividend ATM Diebold (NYSE: DBD) and an under-the-radar restaurant stock DineEquity (NYSE: DIN). Small-cap stocks have more growth potential than large-caps, and as a result, may have more room to run than their large-cap peers. If you’re an investor who favors receiving income from your stocks, these three companies should be on your watch list.
