Global dividends hit a record high in 2024, with $606.1 billion paid in Q2 alone, as tech giants like Meta and Alibaba entered the dividend-paying market. Equity yields remain low compared to bonds, with the FTSE All-World index yielding 1.86% in September 2024, while the FTSE World Government Bond index yield to maturity stood at 3.03%. Dividend-focused strategies can enhance income potential in equity portfolios by prioritising high-dividend-paying sectors and reducing risks of dividend cuts.

Dividend stocks, including REITs and utilities, have underperformed in recent years. Rising interest rates and increasing costs of capital have contributed to the underperformance. The beginnings of a strong dividend stock rally may have just begun on the back of some very good news.

Very Good News For Dividend Stocks

As an exchange-traded note, ETRACS 2xMonthly Pay Leveraged US Small Cap High Dividend ETN is essentially a senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt security. The primary objective of SMHB is to offer investors a high yield of over 18%, and it has an annual fee of 0.85%. I think if you like small-caps for a trade, there are better options out there, but this remains an interesting strategy to watch and potentially allocate to.

Stocks paying higher dividends showed their mettle during a challenging 2022: the S&P 500 High Dividend Index declined only a modest –1.1% even as the S&P 500 tumbled –18.1%. In our view, much of the volatility in high-dividend strategies, broadly speaking, comes down to portfolio design choices, which can create very different characteristics.
