5 Top Monthly Dividend Stocks

Most dividend stocks have one drawback for income investors, though: They tend to make their dividend payments only on a quarterly basis. That's fine for the company, but it doesn't always work out well for shareholders who have monthly income needs. A few dividend stocks, however, have figured out that meeting their investors' needs can be a smart move, and they've therefore chosen to make monthly dividend payments. Although income investors naturally prefer the highest dividend yields they can find, the highest-yielding monthly dividend stocks aren't necessarily the ones with the safest dividends.

With all that as foreground, below are five of the most promising top monthly dividend stocks for investors to consider: AGNC Investment (NASDAQ:AGNC), LTC Properties (NYSE:LTC), Pembina Pipeline (NYSE:PBA), Realty Income (NYSE:O) and Shaw Communications (NYSE:SJR). These stocks have different focus areas, but they all offer healthy dividend yields and good track records of making monthly payouts to their shareholders.
