Most dividend-paying companies distribute dividends quarterly, but some pay out monthly dividends. Monthly dividends are an attractive form of cash flow, especially for investors looking to add to a fixed income. Finding the strongest, most consistent dividends takes a little more research, but is well worth the effort.
Realty Income (NYSE:O) is a Real Estate Investment Trust, or REIT. REITs are required to pay out 90% of income as dividends and aim to invest in growing assets. At 3.7%, Realty Income doesn't pay a huge dividend, but it has a strong record of payout consistency regardless of market conditions. Main Street Capital (NYSE:MAIN) is a blue-chip business development company (BDC), which means it provides debt and equity capital to middle market companies to support management buyouts, recapitalization, growth investments, refinancing, or acquisitions. Like REITs, BDCs have to pay out almost all of their earnings in the form of dividends. Stag Industrial (NYSE:STAG) is an industrial REIT that runs a portfolio of single tenant light industrial buildings. Not at all glamorous, typical properties include light manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, and warehouses. These are not structures people love to see from living room windows, but they house the bedrock of the economy.
