In this segment from The Motley Fool's everything-financials show, Where the Money Is, analysts David Hanson and Matt Koppenheffer take a listener's question regarding Armour Residential REIT . The question is:
You recently mentioned Armour in your program on selling losers. According to Charles Schwab, the 2013 earnings are $1.54. With a current payout of $0.15 per quarter (or $0.60 per year) they do not come close to the required 90% per year. Will they have to do a special dividend to catch up or up the payout otherwise? Could this make them a buy?
More dividend stocks to consider
Dividend stocks, like mortgage REITs, can make you rich. It's as simple as that. While they don't garner the notoriety of high-flying growth stocks, they're also less likely to crash and burn. And over the long term, the compounding effect of the quarterly payouts, as well as their growth, adds up faster than most investors imagine. With this in mind, our analysts sat down to identify the absolute best of the best when it comes to rock-solid dividend stocks, drawing up a list in this free report of nine that fit the bill.
