Buy 10 “Small Dog” Stocks to CRUSH the Market

In the early ’90s, Michael B. O’Higgins popularized a strategy called the “Dogs of the Dow.”

That’s where investors purchase the 10 stocks in the Dow Jones Industrial Average with the highest yield.

The idea is that these stocks have higher yields because they’re “dogs,” or undesirable. Remember: When a stock goes down, its yield goes up.

(As a side note, I take offense to any term that describes man’s best friend in an unfavorable light.)

According to Barron’s, the Dogs of the Dow have an average yield of 3.7%. That’s twice as good as the S&P 500 Index.

A 3.7% dividend isn’t bad.

But there’s a new version of the Dogs strategy, and its average yield is almost 20%.

These Dogs Are Ready to Run

Barron’s recently looked at a new Dogs of the Dow strategy.

It’s a portfolio of the 10 highest-yielding stocks in the small-cap Russell 2000 Index with market values over $1 billion.

Barron’s calls them the “Small Dogs of the Dow.”

It found that over the past decade, the Small Dogs’ average dividend yield was almost 20%.

That dwarfs the 1.7% yield for the Russell 2000.

The Full List of the Small Dogs of the Dow

Ticker	Name	Dividend Yield
HCC	Warrior Met Coal Inc.	21.7%
DHC	Diversified Healthcare Trust	13.8%
NYMT	New York Mortgage Trust Inc.	12.6%
GEO	Geo Group Inc.	11.3%
VGR	Vector Group	11.2%
ARR	Armour Residential REIT Inc.	11.2%
APAM	Artisan Partners Asset Mgmt. Inc.	11.0%
SFL	SFL Corp. Ltd.	10.5%
UNIT	Uniti Group Inc.	10.4%
CXW	Corecivic Inc.	10.4%

To use this strategy, simply buy all 10 of these stocks … or at least as many as you’re able to.

As you can see in the chart above, all of the Small Dogs pay a dividend of more than 10%.

So, when the market shows weakness, you’ll still be making money from the yields.

And when the market surges higher, history proves that you can expect solid returns.

When you factor in dividends, the Small Dogs have been on par with, or even better than, the market.

Considering the great run stocks had over the past decade, that’s a really big deal.

An Even Better Way to Invest

For the past few months, I’ve been talking with my colleague Jeff Yastine about a brand-new investing strategy.

It easily beats both the Big and Small Dogs of the Dow.

In fact, I think Jeff’s onto something really big here. And from what I can tell, nobody outside of Wall Street is talking about it.

He calls it “Q Shares.” And it can help you make gains that are 5 times, 10 times and even 27 times bigger than with normal shares.

Jeff decided that everyday investors need to know about this new investment strategy too. So, he put together a webinar that explains exactly how it works.
