The 7 Lowest-Paying Dividend Stocks for Income Haters

Monday, 20 March 2023, 11:30:35
The lowest-paying dividend stocks don’t have the same cachet as their high-yielding counterparts. After all, if you are looking for your portfolio to generate steady returns and/or steady income, you obviously want to find the stocks that can provide the highest risk-adjusted return. However, if capital growth, not income, is your top investing priority, it may still be worth inspecting stocks that barely qualify as dividend-paying. For one, there may be a good reason these companies are making de minimis payouts. To maximize shareholder value, management of these companies may find it more beneficial to repurchase shares and/or reinvest earnings back into the business. Alongside this, just because a stock offers a super-low dividend today, doesn’t mean that will be the case tomorrow. Paying out such a small percentage of earnings, these names may have greater potential to implement high dividend increases in the future. According to Finviz.com , these are the seven lowest-paying dividend stocks currently listed on major U.S. stock exchanges.

As per the latest data released by The Nevada Gaming Control board , gaming revenue in the state increased 18% year over year (YOY) to $1.27 billion in January. The largest win came from the Las Vegas gaming strip. Moreover, with the easing of Covid-19 restrictions in China, casinos with exposure to Macau are likely to see solid recovery as the year progresses. Bearing a favorable demand backdrop in mind, I used TipRanks’ Stock Comparison Tool to compare the following casino stocks . I then identified the one that Wall Street finds the most attractive at current levels.
