The problem with traditional dividend stocks and bonds is that the cash flows are lumpy. Our expenses tend to be monthly, yet bond interest is generally paid twice per year and most dividends are paid quarterly. But some of the very best dividend stocks are those that pay 12 times a year. While you should never buy a stock purely because of its payout schedule, there is quite a lot to like about monthly dividend stocks. When they commit to paying monthly, management is showing very ostentatiously that they are giving their shareholders what they want.
And for investors reinvesting their dividends, the monthly frequency means faster dividend compounding. So with no further ado, let’s just into my favorite monthly dividend stocks for 2016: EPR Properties (EPR), Stag Industrial Inc (STAG), Prospect Capital Corporation (PSEC), UBS ETRACS Monthly Pay 2X Mortgage REIT ETN (MORL), Cohen & Steers Limited Duration Preferred and Income Fund (LDP), LTC Properties Inc (LTC) and Realty Income Corp (O).
