How Stocks Are the Best Game in Town For IncomeWhen most people think of the stock market, they think of big price swings that can make—or lose—a fortune quickly.While that’s certainly a component to it, smart investors know that price moves higher, or capital gains, are just part of the investment equation.In fact, capital gains are only about half the market’s performance in your portfolio over time.The other half? Income.The stock market is a place to buy and sell fractions of businesses. Some are great, some aren’t. But the successful ones usually like to ensure that their owners, the shareholders, receive some of the profits along the way.That usually comes in the form of a cash payment called a dividend. Most companies that pay them do so quarterly, although some do so as little as annually, but some do so as often as monthly. There’s a wide variety. Best of all, studies have shown that, over the course of an investment lifetime, dividend income from your holdings, reinvested into your portfolio, can generate as much as half of your portfolio’s total. And, of course, once you get into retirement and need a steady stream of income, that cash can be diverted away from reinvesting and into your pocket. Dividend-paying stocks tend to be steadier and less volatile than smaller, faster-growing companies... but they’re also likely to stick around, reducing the risk of a big loss. But combine all those factors together when thinking about a lifetime of investing, and it’s clear that a focus on dividend-paying companies alone in your portfolio will lead to better overall investment results.Not sure the best way to get started?
