Dividend capture is an investing technique that involves purchasing a stock just... Dividend capture is an investing technique that involves purchasing a stock just before the stock goes ex-dividend so that the investor can collect the dividend. The best way to execute the dividend capture strategy is to find stocks that recover quickly after committing to a dividend payment. Proper timing is essential to avoid the risk of holding the stock. This is where Dividend.com’s price recovery days’ metric can help you pick the best dividend capture picks.

The securities listed in this page are organized into two tables. The stock table includes relevant common stocks, ADRs and preferred shares and the funds table includes relevant exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and institutional share class mutual funds. All securities have an active dividend policy and are either exchange-listed or domiciled in the United States.

Dividend.com Premium members have access to premium data within each table. Premium data includes stock ratings (scored out of 5) for overall dividend quality, yield attractiveness, dividend reliability, earnings growth, valuation and price momentum in addition to payout estimates for future dividends. Premium data is blocked for public users.

By default, the tables are sorted in an ascending order by average price recovery days.
