Every month, we screen for high-yield dividend growth stocks with safety, growth and consistency as part of the screening process. This process often results in several REITs making the top of the list thanks to the structure requiring paying out most of their earnings. With that, we have a new REIT name making the list this month, one that has now been growing its dividend for the last few years, again.

Four BDCs—PFLT, CCAP, CGBD, OBDC—implemented double-digit dividend cuts, reflecting sector volatility and recent price declines near 52-week lows. Despite dividend reductions, all BDCs remain in the RIG portfolio, with recommendations to hold as dividend coverage stabilizes and recovery potential emerges.
