Big dividends. And I mean really big dividends. Yields that are multiples of the average of the members of the S&P 500 Index. But big dividends are worthless if the companies behind them aren’t up to sustaining them, or if the dividend stocks aren’t working in the market. A dividend yield won’t be worth much to anything on dividend stocks that are lagging or tanking. Investing for dividend income takes work researching companies — both their income statements and their balance sheets. As a former banker and bond guy — I have always been about balance sheets as just as important as income statements.
The following big dividend stocks have been vetted by me and I’ve been recommending them for some time. And that time includes both good and bad conditions — so the dividends are sustainable: AllianceBernstein (NYSE:AB), Compass Diversified (NYSE:CODI), Hercules Capital (NYSE:HTGC) and Sixth Street Specialty Lending (NYSE:TSLX).
