6 Monthly Dividend Stocks to Buy

Most dividend stocks pay their shareholders quarterly, but a few dividend yielding stocks offer monthly distributions. The group is small: less than 100, with many of the offerings being exchange-traded funds (ETFs) or closed-end actively managed funds. And so investors looking for monthly dividend stocks to buy are limiting their universe quite a bit. These six stocks all fit that bill, offering not only monthly dividends but potential share price appreciation and reasonable payout ratios...

Realty Income (NYSE:O) is the best-known of the monthly dividend payers, to the point that it has trademarked the slogan “The Monthly Dividend Company.” Like Realty Income, senior housing and healthcare property REIT LTC Properties (NYSE:LTC) has bounced nicely off recent lows. Canadian telecommunications company Shaw Communications (NYSE:SJR) hasn’t posted particularly strong performance over the past few years. Apple Hospitality REIT (NYSE:APLE) owns 241 hotels in the U.S. Pembina Pipeline (NYSE:PBA) is the biggest company on this list — and the riskiest. STAG Industrial (NYSE:STAG) isn’t necessarily a spectacular stock, but it’s one that can drive steady long-term returns along with monthly payouts.
