Benefits of Lesser-Known Small-Cap Dividend Stocks

I don’t usually talk about dividend stocks. Now, that’s not to say I don’t favor them; it’s just that my specialty is in small-cap stocks and special situations. But you cannot ignore the fact that strong dividend-paying companies perform very well over the long term—I mean decades. We are talking about the likes of Colgate-Palmolive Company (NYSE/CL) with a 2.3% yield, and The Procter & Gamble Company (NYSE/PG), with a three-percent yield.

In the investment management sector, take a look at small-cap Och-Ziff Capital Management Group LLC (NYSE/OZM), which is near its 52-week high and pays an impressive 9.9% dividend yield. The company runs money from pension funds and other areas. Also in the investment management area, Fortress Investment Group LLC (NYSE/FIG) looks pretty good as reflected by the steady rise in its stock price since June 2012.
