Most dividend stocks made payments to shareholders on a quarterly basis. But not all companies pay quarterly dividends. In rarer cases, companies may pay dividends to shareholders annually or semi-annually. There is an even more appealing group known as monthly dividend stocks.

<p class="articleSource"><strong>Source: <a href="https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2024/04/10/investors-move-toward-gold.html?utm_medium=feed">Adrian Day 04/10/2024</a></strong></p>
<p>Global Analyst Adrian Day looks for signs that investors are finally turning to gold, and provides an update on developments at a couple of stocks on his list.</p>
<p>A month ago, we wrote about the drivers of the gold price and, in particular, who was buying; at that point, it had gone up $190 in the previous month. Now, it is up another $150 over the past four weeks. Though central bank buying remains the prime driver of higher gold prices, there are indications of a shift from institutional and retail investors that could see gold move significantly higher from here.</p>
<p>Most reports on various avenues of gold buying are lagging, so we can&#39;t be sure what has happened in the past few weeks. Central banks, which bought 1,037 metric tonnes in 2023, a little shy of the 2022 record, are continuing to buy this year. Complete global data for February is not yet available, but the countries that have reported suggest continued buying. So far, almost 19 tonnes of net buying has been reported. That&#39;s down from over 45 tonnes in January.</p>
<p>So far, some of the largest recent buyers have reported, including China, which bought over 12 tonnes in February, up from ten the month before and the highest number since October. A broad range of countries also bought, including the Czech Republic, Kazakhstan, Qatar, Turkey, and Mauritania. The buying was offset by a large sale of almost 12 tonnes from Uzbekistan, which has been both a large buying and selling over the past two years. We do not know where the February number will end. So far, though strong, it represents a slowing of the trend of the last two years.</p>
<h2><strong>Retail Buyers Are Still Not in the Market</strong></h2>
<p>Similarly, we do not have global reports for coin sales, but anecdotal evidence suggests only a slight shift toward buying in recent weeks. Coin dealers in both the U.S. and Europe are reporting a pick-up in interest from gold buyers but still say flows are neutral at best; coin premiums are reflecting weak sales.</p>
<p>We do, however, have up-to-date data for gold ETF flows, and that shows a shift in the last few weeks. There have been inflows the last two days (Wednesday and Thursday; Friday&#39;s data have not yet been reported) as gold tackled $2,300, but outflows for four of the five days before. So, it is too soon to say that there has been a clear reversal, though any inflows are somewhat encouraging after 18 months of steady outflows. The selling has continued this year, for a total of 3.4 million ounces so far. (See graph on next page.) In context, the ETF buying on Thursday, 37,484 ounces or just over one tonne, is little more than one-third of what the central banks have been buying every single day.</p>
<p><img alt="" class="No_img_class" src="https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202441062951_2.png" style="height:332px; width:605px" /></p>
<p>So, it seems clear that retail and institutional investors are not what is continuing to drive the gold price.</p>
<p>Ongoing reports on central bank buying will tell much of the story. However, there also appears to be a new source of demand, and it is not retail or traditional investors.</p>
<p>Rather, we suspect it is wealthy families and institutions, primarily in the Middle East and Asia but also in Europe, looking for an insurance asset to protect against financial instability. Gold&#39;s strength in the face of factors that are usually headwinds &mdash; a strong dollar, high interest rates, a (seemingly) strong economy, and buoyant equity markets &mdash; suggests that it is not traditional investment demand.</p>
<p>Of course, renewed expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts favor gold. We have said repeatedly over the past 18 months that the gold sector will move when the Fed cuts rates before it has quashed inflation, and investors now sense that we are very close to that point. However, this past week, Fed chairman Jerome Powell showed a more hawkish tone than he had exhibited at his last post-meeting press conference. That, along with the strong jobs report and other economic reports this past week, would not increase the expectations of an imminent rate cut. Yet, upward drove the gold price.</p>
<h2><strong>The Economy Is Not as Strong as It Would Seem</strong></h2>
<p>Much economic data &mdash; including consumer debt levels &mdash; is also not encouraging and suggests that the Fed may cut rates soon. And the market knows it. Powell has specifically said that higher unemployment might prompt a rate cut.</p>
<p>And we know that the labor market is not as strong as the headlines suggest. The labor participation rate is still below pre-Covid. Government jobs have been one of the largest components of new hires. The ongoing difference between the household and payroll reports suggests many people have two jobs.</p>
<p>This year, indeed, there has been a loss of over 1.5 million full-time jobs but a gain in part-time jobs, according to government reports. (Thanks to <em>Independent Speculator.</em>) Even with all that, the headline unemployment rate has been inching up over the past year.</p>
<h2><strong>Early Signs of Some Interest as Gold Stocks and Silver Outperform Gold</strong></h2>
<p>The hard data on ETF and other fund flows clearly indicate that this segment is not responsible for gold&#39;s recent move, again pointing to over-the-counter purchases by large buyers that are not reported. Such buying is most likely from a relatively small number of very wealthy buyers. If these individuals are buying as an insurance asset, they too, like the central banks, will be long-term holders.</p>
<p>Another very interesting development is that both silver and gold stocks are now outperforming gold itself, something that normally signals a strong market and an increase in investor interest. Since the beginning of last month, gold and silver stocks have outperformed silver, which has outperformed gold. The stocks have returned more than twice that of gold.</p>
<p>So in sum, although looking at the year as a while, it would appear that central banks, and perhaps some very large family investors, have been buyers while institutional and retail, particularly in the West, have continued to be sellers, there has definitely been a shift in the last month.</p>
<p>If this continues, the moves could be explosive. The size of the gold and silver equity markets &mdash; a total market cap of about half a trillion, compared with over $3 trillion for Microsoft alone &mdash; suggests that only a small shift in assets from the erstwhile market leaders into the gold stocks will see stocks move dramatically higher.</p>
<h2><strong>Franco Buys Small Royalty as Large Transactions Are Elusive</strong></h2>
<p><strong>Franco-Nevada Corp.</strong> (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fnv#NYSE">FNV</a>) purchased a royalty from Scottie Resources on some exploration ground in the Golden Triangle, British Colombia, for just over CA$8 million.</p>
<p>The Golden Triangle has been a key focus for Newmont since its Newcrest acquisition. This is a very small deal for Franco and on early-stage exploration.</p>
<p>What is noteworthy, perhaps, is that Franco also bought CA$1.5 million in equity, another sign of Franco being prepared to shift away from the straight royalty or stream transactions as there are fewer opportunities to deploy large amounts of capital.</p>
<p>Offering equity, as it has done in some other recent deals with debt, perhaps helps the company win the royalty. As with Wheaton, we can probably expect to see more small transactions in the current environment.</p>
<p>We continue to like Franco as a core holding. It can be bought by investors who do not currently own it.</p>
<h2><strong>Altius Loses Takings Appeal</strong></h2>
<p><strong>Altius Minerals Corp. </strong>(OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/atusf#OTC">ATUSF</a>) reported that the Alberta Court of Appeal had upheld the earlier decision to summarily dismiss Altius&#39;s takings claim over its royalty on the Genesee coal mine. When the Alberta government ordered the power plant that was</p>
<p>Genesee&#39;s sole customer to switch away from coal, the mine owners were compensated, but Altius, the owner of a royalty on the mine, was not. The court ruled that the legal test for constructive taking was not met. Altius said it will determine if any further legal steps are warranted.</p>
<p>While disappointing, we do not believe that any potential award was priced into Altius&#39; share price. Altius continues to be a core holding for us, with broad exposure to the commodities space.</p>
<p>We are holding.</p>
<p><strong>TOP BUYS this week, </strong>in addition to the above, include <strong>Nestl&eacute; SA </strong>(OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nsrgf#OTC">NSRGF</a>)<strong>,</strong> <strong>Gladstone Investment Corp. </strong>(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gain#NASDAQ">GAIN</a>)<strong>,</strong> and <strong>Orogen Royalties Inc. </strong>(OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ognrf#OTC">OGNRF</a>).</p>

Gladstone Inv Earnings Preview

<p>In the current session, the stock is trading at $14.43, after a <strong>0.07%</strong> spike. Over the past month, <strong>Gladstone Inv Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GAIN#NASDAQ">GAIN</a>)</strong> stock increased by <strong>1.16%</strong>, and in the past year, by <strong>7.48%</strong>. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.</p>
<p>

<h3>Comparing Gladstone Inv P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
<p>The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. </p>
<p>Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the <strong>36.44</strong> in the Capital Markets industry, Gladstone Inv Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of <strong>6.33</strong>. Shareholders might be inclined to think that  the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. </p>
<p>
</p><p><img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1705953617_1.png" alt="Guage" /></p>

<p>In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions. </p>

Wednesday Is Your Last Chance To Buy Gladstone Inv Before The Dividend Payout

Gladstone Investment Corporation Acquires The E3 Company; Co. Invested $46M Through Combination Of Senior Secured Debt And Equity To Complete Transaction

<p><strong>DAVID DULLUM</strong>, President at <strong>Gladstone Inv</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GAIN#NASDAQ">GAIN</a>), reported a large insider buy on August 8, according to a new SEC filing. </p>
<p><strong>What Happened:</strong> A Form 4 filing from the <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/0001321741/000106299323016000//Archives/edgar/data/1321741/000106299323016000/0001062993-23-016000-index.htm">U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission</a> on Tuesday showed that DULLUM purchased 5,000 shares of Gladstone Inv.

<h3>Why Insider Transactions Are Important</h3>
<p>Insider transactions shouldn't be used primarily to make an investing decision, however, they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.</p>
<p>In legal terms, an "insider" refers to any shareholder who owns at least 10% of a company. This can include executives in the c-suite and large hedge funds. These insiders are required to let the public know of their transactions via a Form 4 filing, which must be filed within two business days of the transaction.</p>
<p>When a company insider makes a new purchase, that is an indication that they expect the stock to rise.</p>
<p>Insider sells, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down.  </p>
<h3>Important Transaction Codes</h3>
<p><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">Investors</a> prefer focusing on transactions that take place in the open market, indicated in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A  <strong>P</strong> in Box 3 indicates a purchase, while  <strong>S</strong> indicates a sale. Transaction code <strong>C</strong> indicates the conversion of an option, and transaction code <strong>A</strong> indicates the insider may have been forced to sell shares in order to receive compensation that had been promised upon being hired by the company.</p>

<p>In order to be eligible to receive a company's dividend, shareholders must own the stock prior to the ex-dividend date—in this case, Thursday. Shareholders who own GAIN as of the end of Wednesday's session are eligible to receive the 8 cents dividend payout for every share that they own. </p>
<p>According to the company, this dividend will be paid out to shareholders on July 31, 2023. Investors will then be able to either reinvest those dividends back into the stock or use the payment in some other way. </p>

Gladstone Inv: Q4 Earnings Insights

<p><a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a></p>
<p>Monthly <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/dividend-stocks/">dividend stocks</a> are one of my favorite investing strategies, and I recommend them for those who are seeking consistent income streams.</p>



<p>These stocks are ideal because instead of paying dividends quarterly, the companies they represent pay their investors monthly. This frequent payout can be particularly attractive for investors looking to supplement their regular income or seek more regular cash flow.</p>



<p>This predictable cash flow can help cover monthly expenses for retirees or those living off investments. But monthly dividend stocks are also ideal for investors who are focused on building passive income streams. Investors can gradually increase their holdings over time by reinvesting dividends or using them to cover living expenses.</p>



<p>In fact, monthly dividend stocks are perfect for investors who want to monitor their holdings. </p>



<p>By taking the monthly payout and reinvesting right away, those investors are capitalizing more quickly than an investor who is getting a quarterly payout, potentially accelerating the growth of their investment portfolios.</p>



<p>We&rsquo;re using the Dividend Grader tool  to look for some of the best monthly dividend stocks on the market. If you look forward to a regular payday, these stocks are for you.</p>



<h2>Modiv Industrial (MDV)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/reits1600b-300x169.jpg" alt="Real estate investment trust (REIT) on a black notebook on an office desk."><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p><strong>Modiv Industrial</strong> (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/mdv-stock-quote/"><strong>MDV</strong></a>) is a real estate investment trust (<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/reit-stock-quote/"><strong>REIT</strong></a>) that invests in industrial manufacturing facilities. </p>



<p>It has more than 40 properties scattered across 16 U.S. states and is quickly growing its industrial holdings.</p>



<p>Modiv bought more than $214 million in industrial assets in 2023, and plans to continue buying this year, but it will wait for the right opportunity. </p>



<p>&ldquo;We believe that there will be no shortage of assets to acquire, and we believe this because we have no shortage of the patience needed to wait for the right opportunities,&rdquo; management said in its <a href="https://modiv.com/modiv-industrial-announces-fourth-quarter-and-full-year-2023-results/">earnings report</a> for the fourth quarter.</p>



<p>REITs are one of the most popular monthly dividend stocks because they come with significant tax benefits. Because they distribute at least 90% of their taxable income, REITs aren&rsquo;t subject to corporate income taxes.</p>



<p>For its part, MDV has a dividend yield of 6.9%. The stock is up 20% so far in 2024 and gets a &ldquo;B&rdquo; rating in the Portfolio Grader.</p>



<h2>Main Street Capital (MAIN)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/private_equity_1600-300x169.jpg" alt='Gold and silver gears with the words "private equity" written on the gold gears. representing netcapital platform'><div>Source: Pavel3d/ShutterStock.com</div></div><p><strong>Main Street Capital</strong> (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/main-stock-quote/"><strong>MAIN</strong></a>) is an equity firm that invests in lower and middle market companies. It has invested in over 200 companies in its history.</p>



<p>For instance, on March 19, it announced an investment in <strong>Gulf Manufacturing</strong>, a maker of products for the oil and gas industry. </p>



<p>The $40 million investment will help Gulf Manufacturing purchase another company, <strong>Maass Global Group</strong>, which manufactures bars, pipes, and other materials.</p>



<p>Earnings for the fourth quarter included $129.3 million in revenue, up 14% from the previous year. Earnings per share were $1.12, up from $1.03 in the same quarter last year.</p>



<p>MAIN stock is up 6% so far this year and pays a dividend yield of 6.3%. It gets a &ldquo;B&rdquo; rating in the Dividend Grader.</p>



<h2>Grupo Aval (AVAL)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/bonus-pay-money-300x169.jpg" alt="100 dollar bills being passed from one hand to the other. Can represent stimulus checks or payment. millionaire-maker stocks"><div>Source: Maryna Pleshkun/Shutterstock.com</div></div><p><strong>Grupo Aval </strong>(NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/aval-stock-quote/"><strong>AVAL</strong></a>) is a holding company in Columbia. The company primarily operates in the financial sector, with investments in stocks, bonds and other financial instruments.</p>



<p>The company operates subsidiaries that offer traditional banking services, pension and fund management, investment banking and real estate investing. </p>



<p>It has four commercial banks, a private pension and severance fund manager and a merchant bank. It also operates in Central America as Banco de Bogata.</p>



<p>While Columbia saw a slowdown in 2023, with GDP growth of only 0.6%, Grupo Aval did see some bright spots. The banks saw an increase in market share for gross loans, commercial loans, consumer loans and mortgages.</p>



<p>As the oil industry improves and Columbia&rsquo;s GDP growth returns to normal levels, AVAL should provide a solid return. In the meantime, its dividend yield of 9.1% is appealing for income investors.</p>



<p>AVAL stock gets a &ldquo;B&rdquo; rating in the Dividend Grader.</p>



<h2>PennantPark Floating Rate Capital (PFLT)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/dividends-definition-300x169.jpg" alt='The word "dividend" highlighted in a dictionary.'><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p>That brings us to the business development company <strong>PennantPark Floating Rate Capital</strong> (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/pflt-stock-quote/"><strong>PFLT</strong></a>). BDCs, like REITs, distribute 90% of income to shareholders, making them attractive for investors seeking a consistent monthly income.</p>



<p>PennantPark&rsquo;s investment portfolio includes $1.27 billion in assets, primarily through middle market companies with first-lien debt. </p>



<p>This is important for investors who want a sure thing, because PennantPark&rsquo;s customers guarantee their debts through collateral that can be taken should they fall behind in their payments.</p>



<p>In the fourth quarter, PennantPark invested $302.6 million in 13 new and 34 existing portfolio companies. Those investments carry an average interest rate of nearly 12%, giving the company a solid income stream.</p>



<p>PFLT has a dividend yield of 10.9%. It gets a &ldquo;B&rdquo; rating in the Dividend Grader.</p>



<h2>Gladstone Investment Corp. (GAIN)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/dividends-money-300x169.jpg" alt="Hand putting coin in jar word dividend with money stack."><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p><strong>Gladstone Investment Corp.</strong> (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/gain-stock-quote/"><strong>GAIN</strong></a>) is a BDC that invests in mature lower middle market companies. It targets businesses with earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization of $4 million to $15 million.</p>

<p>In the third quarter of its fiscal 2023 year (ending Dec. 31, 2023), Gladstone earned $9.7 million in net income, or 28 cents per share, compared to a loss of $1.7 million and 5 cents per share in the same quarter a year ago. Revenue for the quarter was $23.1 million.</p>



<p>GAIN stock offers a monthly dividend yield of 6.9% and a &ldquo;B&rdquo; rating in the Dividend Grader.</p>



<h2>Gladstone Capital Corp. (GLAD)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="200" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/money1600-300x200.jpg" alt="close up of one hundred dollar bills"><div>Source: Ruslan Ivantsov / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p>Gladstone Investment Corp. and <strong>Gladstone Capital Corp.</strong> (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/glad-stock-quote/"><strong>GLAD</strong></a>) are related. </p>



<p>While Gladstone Investment seeks majority ownership of companies to create value and improve operations, Gladstone Capital supports company buyouts and provides capital to help them grow.</p>



<p>The company targets companies that have annual revenue between $20 million and $150 million and EBITDA between $3 million and $25 million. </p>



<p>The typical investment in each company is between $8 million to $40 million to finance a buyout, debt refinancing, expansion or recapitalization.</p>

<p>GLAD provides a dividend yield of 9.5%. Like its counterpart, it also gets a &ldquo;B&rdquo; rating in the Dividend Grader.</p>



<h2>Oxford Square Capital (OXSQ)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/dividends-letters-300x169.jpg" alt="dividend stocks"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p><strong>Oxford Square Capital</strong> (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/oxsq-stock-quote/"><strong>OXSQ</strong></a>) is a BDC based in Greenwich, Connecticut. The company invests in corporate debt securities and collateralized loan obligation structured investments that own corporate debt securities.</p>



<p>A CLO is a security that is backed by a pool of debt. Oxford Square receives debt payments from the underlying loans of the CLO, but then takes the risk if the borrowers default. </p>



<p>CLOs usually include se&ntilde;or or secured debt, which gives Oxford a guarantee that it could recoup its losses should that happen, however.</p>



<p>In 2023 the company brought in <a href="https://ir.oxfordsquarecapital.com/news-market-data/press-releases/news-details/2024/Oxford-Square-Capital-Corp.-Announces-Net-Asset-Value-and-Selected-Financial-Results-for-the-Quarter-Ended-December-31-2023-and-Declaration-of-Distributions-on-Common-Stock-for-the-Months-Ending-April-30-May-31-and-June-30-2024/default.aspx">$51.8 million</a> in investment income, up from $43.1 million a year ago.

7 Top-Rated Stocks That Also Pay Monthly Dividends: March 2024

Ares Capital's NAV, Valuation, And Dividend Versus 14 BDC Peers - Part 2 (Includes Q2 + Q3 2024 Dividend Projection)

Prospect Capital: Potentially Impacted By Interest Rate Cuts (Rating Downgrade)

<p><a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a></p>
<p><a href="https://citylimits.org/2022/10/18/the-rent-is-still-too-damn-high-catching-up-with-jimmy-mcmillan/">&ldquo;The rent is too damn high!&rdquo;</a> That was the campaign slogan of New York City mayoral candidate Jimmy McMillan in 2010. At the time, the average rent in the city was $1,216 per month, 27% higher than the $955 a month national average.</p>



<p>Some 13 years later, the situation dramatically deteriorated. <a href="https://inhabit.corcoran.com/nyc-residential-rental-market-report-november-2023/#:~:text=The%20median%20Manhattan%20rent%20was,year%20for%20all%20unit%20types.">Median rents in Manhattan</a> at the end of last year was $4,457 per month, a 366% increase in 13 years! That works out to&nbsp; a 10.5% compounded annual growth rate (<span>CAGR</span>). Nationally, median rent is $1,317 per month, a 2.5% CAGR.</p>



<p>Regardless of whether you live in Gotham or anywhere else in the country, the fact remains, the rent is still too damn high.&nbsp;</p>



<p>But what if you could get help cracking that monthly nut by investing? Dividend <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/growth-stocks/">growth stocks</a> offer not only capital appreciation but the chance to get paid for owning the stock. A carefully crafted portfolio of high-yield <a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-types/dividend-stocks/">dividend stocks</a> that regularly increase their payout could be a way to supplement your income to help make ends meet.</p>



<p><strong>Wellington Management</strong> found that <a href="https://www.hartfordfunds.com/dam/en/docs/pub/whitepapers/WP106.pdf">stocks paying high yields</a> &mdash; but not the highest &mdash; outperformed all other stocks over the 92 years between 1930 and 2022. The three high-yield dividend stocks below should be a part of your portfolio and could help you pay your bills, too.</p>



<h2>Realty Income (O)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/realty1600-300x169.jpg" alt="realty income logo highlighted by a magnifying glass on a web browser"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p>Arguably one of the best high-yield dividend stocks you could buy is real estate investment trust (<span>REIT</span>) <strong>Realty Income</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/o-stock-quote/"><strong>O</strong></a></span>). It typically invests in <a href="https://investorplace.com/2024/02/3-top-quality-stocks-every-retirement-investor-needs-to-own/">single-tenant commercial real estate</a> on a triple-net lease basis. That means the tenant, not the REIT, pays the rent, insurance, maintenance and taxes on the property, which keeps Realty Income a low-cost operator.</p>



<p>Like all REITs, Realty Income is required to pay out almost all of its profits as dividends. It is fairly unique, though, as it is one of a relative handful of REITs that pay dividends monthly. In fact, it was the one who pioneered the practice and has dubbed itself &ldquo;The Monthly Dividend Company.&rdquo;</p>



<p>Realty Income&rsquo;s dividend yields 6.2% annually. Since listing on the NYSE in 1994, O stock has made 124 monthly dividend payments and it <a href="https://www.realtyincome.com/investors/press-releases/124th-common-stock-monthly-dividend-increase-declared-realty-income">just raised its payout again</a>. It now pays 25.7 cents per share every month, or $3.08 per share per year. That marks the 106th consecutive quarterly increase in the dividend and represents the 645th consecutive monthly dividend in Realty Income&rsquo;s 55-year operating history.</p>



<h2>Gladstone Investment (GAIN)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/bdc1600-300x169.png" alt="Business Development Company BDC concept is shown by businessman."><div>Source: wsf-s / Shutterstock.com</div></div><p>The second stock to buy to help pay your bills is <strong>Gladstone Investment</strong> (NASDAQ:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/gain-stock-quote/"><strong>GAIN</strong></a></span>), which also happens to pay its dividend monthly. The payout is currently yielding 6.4% annually. Unlike Realty Income which invests in real estate, Gladstone invests in businesses. It is a business development company (<span>BDC</span>) that <a href="https://investorplace.com/2023/12/3-ultra-high-yield-dividend-stocks-that-can-pay-your-rent-every-month/">takes an equity position</a> in the companies rather than simply making loans to them as many other BDCs do. The companies it takes equity stakes in are typically lower-middle market businesses.</p>



<p>GLAD stock targets having 25% of its portfolio as equity investments while the typical BDC targets 5% to 10%. Although that arguably makes Gladstone somewhat riskier because it can rise and fall on how well its investments are performing, its dividend is based upon the loan portion of its portfolio, not the equity portion.</p>



<p>In addition to Gladstone&rsquo;s regular monthly payments it usually pays investors a <a href="https://www.stocktitan.net/news/GAIN/gladstone-investment-announces-additional-0-88-supplemental-masghm98vmq2.html">supplement distribution twice a year</a>. The amount tends to be based on the success of the investments they subsequently exit. Those supplemental distributions can vary but GLAD stock&rsquo;s monthly dividend has grown for 11 consecutive years.</p>



<h2>AT&amp;T (T)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/telecom1600d-300x169.jpg" alt="a concept image of telecommunications featuring several symbols connected over a city. telecom stocks to sell"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div><p>The last stock to add to your portfolio to help make ends meet is <strong>AT&amp;T</strong> (NYSE:<span><a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/t-stock-quote/"><strong>T</strong></a></span>). It pays its dividend in the more common quarterly fashion and it currently yields 6.3% annually. Although it&rsquo;s stock is down 6% over the past year, the telecom giant has <a href="https://investorplace.com/2024/02/3-dividend-stocks-that-are-making-billionaires-even-richer/">made great strides</a> in that time and has climbed 18% in the last six months.</p>



<p>Ma Bell&rsquo;s stock was wrecked last year after <em>The Wall Street Journal</em> alleged the company was at risk from buried lead-lined cables that leached into surrounding groundwater. AT&amp;T disputes the allegations and says independent experts show the cables are not a risk. Investors panicked, though, and sent shares reeling to a level not seen in 30 years.&nbsp;</p>



<p>But note: Ma Bell just announced it was <a href="https://qz.com/at-t-dark-web-data-breach-affects-73-million-people-1851377558">hit by a massive data breach</a> and tens of millions of sensitive customer records were stolen. At the moment T stock trades at 7 times next year&rsquo;s earnings and a bargain-basement 6 times the free cash flow it generates, but it might go a lot lower real quick because of the hack.</p>



<p>In the long run it won&rsquo;t matter. Companies bounce back from these events. Just use it as an opportunity to buy in at an even greater discount. AT&amp;T stock will still provide substantial growth and income to investors for many years to come.</p>
