Through extensive research, we determined that imitating some of the picks of hedge funds and other institutional investors can help generate market-beating returns over the long run. The key is to focus on the small-cap picks of these investors, since they are usually less followed by the broader market and are less price-efficient. Our backtests that covered the period between 1999 and 2012, showed that following the 15 most popular small-caps among hedge funds can help a retail investor beat the market by an average of 95 basis points per month.
Dividends are a shareholder’s best friend. Not only do dividend stocks have wider moats than the average stock, but studies have also shown that the best dividend stocks beat the market in the long run. At Insider Monkey, we follow over 740 smart money investors, including more than 60 funds that are currently managed or were run by billionaires. Assuming that this particular group has much better stock-picking skills, let’s take a look at some of these billionaires’ funds favorite dividend stocks, which include Pfizer Inc. (NYSE:PFE), Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC), The Coca-Cola Co (NYSE:KO), Macy’s Inc (NYSE:M), and Marathon Petroleum Corp (NYSE:MPC).
