In today’s fast-paced world, longevity is a rare thing. It takes a special firm to go the distance and operate for decades. Those that do, hold special regard among investors – particularly for their dividend prowess. And our latest Best Dividend Capture Stocks List pick is one such firm. As one of the oldest publicly traded stocks, our pick has a longevity streak that simply can’t be beat!
The key to our pick’s longevity remains its business. Our pick happens to be a natural gas utility in one of the fastest-growing midwestern states in the U.S. With it covering the state’s two biggest cities, our pick has plenty of growth and stability from the region’s vast residency. Meanwhile, growth has continued as it makes upgrades to its system and the population of these two main areas explodes.
The end result is that our pick is also a great dividend capture play. A dividend capture strategy involves buying a stock before its ex-dividend date and then selling it after it has recovered the payout. With an ex-dividend date of Friday, December 9, our pick is primed for the strategy, as is evident from its historical track record of a recovery period within an average of 5.5 days after going ex-dividend.
For investors looking for a quick total return of income and capital appreciation, our latest natural gas utility pick could be a lucrative option.
