Today I’m going to share three of my favorite dividend stocks from an ignored corner of the market set to soar in President Trump’s first year. Which corner? The “little guys”: small and mid-cap stocks. In many ways, the cat’s already out of the bag. As they’ve done with financial stocks, investors have bid up small- and midcaps since Trump’s win. With the US dollar soaring and Trump threatening to toss trade deals in the shredder, the market’s small fry (which tend to be more domestically focused) are in the catbird seat.
There’s only one problem if you’re a devoted dividend investor like me. Most small caps don’t pay dividends, as they need to reinvest every penny for growth. That’s why I prefer midcaps, or companies with market caps between $2 billion and $10 billion. Think of them as “Goldilocks” investments, offering stability, potential for quick, outsized gains and, yes, rising dividends. Below are three mid-caps that are red-hot buys now. Two are real estate investment trusts (REITs) that have gone on sale, and one is a hotel operator with a whip-smart management team and a surging payout: CubeSmart (CUBE), Public Storage (PSA) and Tanger Factory Outlet Centers Inc. (SKT).
