5 New Stocks Under $10 That Pay Huge Ultra-Yield Dividends of 10% and More
Published:
24/7 Wall St. Insights
Investors love dividend stocks, especially the ultra-high-yield variety, because they offer a significant income stream and massive total return potential. Total return includes interest, capital gains, dividends, and distributions realized over time. In other words, the total return on an investment or a portfolio consists of income and stock appreciation.
While most of Wall Street focuses on large and mega-cap stocks, as they provide a degree of safety and liquidity, many investors are limited in the number of shares they can buy. Many of the most significant public companies, especially the technology giants, trade at prices up to $1,000 per share, while many are in the low to mid-hundreds. It is hard to get decent share count leverage at those steep prices.
Many investors, especially more aggressive traders, look at lower-priced stocks to make good money and get a higher share count. That can help the decision-making process, especially when you are on to a winner, as you can always sell and keep half.
For low-price stock skeptics, many of the biggest companies in the world, including Apple, Amazon, Netflix, and Nvidia, all traded in the single digits at one time.
We screened our 24/7 Wall St. research database, looking for companies trading under $10 that pay double-digit ultra-high-yield dividends and could offer patient investors enormous returns for the rest of 2024 and beyond. Five companies hit our screens, and all look like solid ideas, especially given the lower-rate environment.
With a massive 10.51% dividend and trading under $7, this company could be a total return home run. BrightSpire Capital Inc. (NYSE: BRSP) operates as a commercial real estate (CRE) credit real estate investment trust in the United States and Europe.
The company operates through:
It focuses on originating, acquiring, financing, and managing a diversified portfolio of CRE debt investments, including first mortgage loans, senior loans, debt securities, mezzanine loans, preferred equity investments, and net leased properties.
The company qualifies as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes. It generally would not be subject to federal corporate income taxes if it distributes at least 90% of its taxable income to its stockholders.
Gold is printing all-time highs, and with a 10.55% dividend, this could be a great way to play the sector. Fortitude Gold Corp. (OTC: FTCO) is a U.S.-based gold producer targeting projects with low operating costs, high margins, and strong returns on capital.
The company’s strategy is to grow organically, remain debt-free, and distribute substantial dividends.
Fortitude Gold’s Nevada Mining Unit consists of seven high-grade gold properties in the Walker Lane Mineral Belt and an eighth high-grade gold property in west central Nevada.
The Isabella Pearl gold mine is currently in production and is located on the Isabella Pearl mineralized trend. Nevada is among the world’s premier mining-friendly jurisdictions. The company recently announced that it has received all regulatory approvals and permits to mine deeper in its Isabella Pearl deposit.
Off the radar and offering a huge 12.42% dividend, this looks like a total return winner. Global Net Lease Inc. (NYSE: GNL) is a publicly traded real estate investment trust focused on acquiring a diversified global portfolio of commercial properties. It emphasizes sale-leaseback transactions involving single-tenant, mission-critical, income-producing net-leased assets across the United States and Western and Northern Europe.
Last month, the company announced continued progress in its 2024 strategic disposition plan with the sales of The Plant Shopping Center in San Jose, California, for $95 million and the Foster Wheeler office property in Shinfield Park, Reading, United Kingdom, for over $27 million. As of August 31, 2024, GNL has closed or secured agreements for dispositions totaling $854 million at a cash cap rate of 7.2%.
GNL had owned the 366,000-square-foot Foster Wheeler Office property for nearly eight years and sold it when the tenant’s lease expired in mid-August, having collected 100% of the rent under the lease term. The property sale will further reduce GNL’s office exposure by approximately 100 basis points, decreasing total office exposure to 19% of the total portfolio’s straight-line rent.
While well known to many ultra-high-yield investors, this solid company offers an 11.70 dividend and enormous upside potential. New York Mortgage Trust Inc.
