Dividend stocks allow investors to enjoy the double benefits of capital appreciation and consistent regular income. These stocks might not have higher growth potential like growth stocks, but they create a stream of regular income for the investors. Discussed below are the companies announcing dividends for shareholders this month. 

Let us begin with the basics first.

What are dividends?

Investors can choose to invest in growth stocks and dividend stocks. But for informed selection, investors should know: ‘what are dividends?’

The dividend is a portion of the company’s profit that the business decides to share with its stakeholders. It is a form of income for investors. Companies issue dividends, cash or otherwise, to keep investors loyal to their business. When a stock’s capital gain is influenced by major market trends, dividends are paid irrespective of the broad market’s ups or downs. 

Investors usually perceive dividend-paying companies as stable, and hence, they invest in them for the long term. Besides, dividends help in wealth accumulation and increase the value of their investments over time.     

Below is the list of upcoming dividend stocks you can include in your portfolio.

Final words 

Dividends provide payback to the initial investment of investors. It is important to note that stock price is impacted by the performance of the market. Hence, growth stocks generate more returns when the economic conditions are growing. But dividend calculation is done independently of the market. Hence, companies may still pay dividends when their share price has declined. It is also used as a tool to reward investors to stay invested.
