Lately it's been hard to go wrong with dividend-paying stocks. Many companies are being generous with their payouts, and their stocks have generally performed well. But if your dividend holdings look a lot like your Grandma's—perhaps a smattering of utility and consumer-staples stocks—it's time to update your strategy. Here are eight ways income investors can profit from dividend stocks.
1. Don't Reach for the Highest Yields
2. Look for Steady Dividend Growers
3. Watch Out for Rising Rates
4. Think Outside the Box, Consider Technology
5. Get in on the Ground Floor With Dividend Rebuilders
6. Scout the Rookies (Recent dividend initiators)
7. Venture Overseas—Carefully
8. Dissect Dividend Funds' Strategies
