In this article, we discuss 10 high growth monthly dividend stocks to invest in now.

Franklin Templeton, in its report dated March 7, mentioned that from 1960 to 2024, approximately 85% of the S&P 500’s total return was generated by reinvested dividends and long-term compounding gains. Amid the market turbulence, investors are shifting toward dividend stocks for stability. Although growth stocks remained in the spotlight for a long time, dividend investing is certainly making a comeback. Dividend ETFs listed in the United States experienced average monthly net inflows valued at approximately $3.3 billion across the six months through January 31, 2025. This is significantly higher than net inflows of $107 million in the corresponding period last year. Moreover, when inflation and interest-rate concerns resurfaced in August 2024, dividend stocks held up better than most.

Morningstar columnist Dan Lefkovitz joined The Morning Filter podcast on November 19, 2025, to discuss the performance of dividend payers in 2025 and what to expect next year. Lefkovitz noted that most dividend indices performed well in absolute capacity, but they fell short when compared to the total US stock market. This is because the market is currently dominated by tech and AI, and most dividend payers are not technology-first companies. He noted that dividend stocks usually belong to industries such as industrials, healthcare, or utilities. However, most of these industries are also experiencing a boom because of the overall AI demand. Utilities, for example, have outpaced the broader market because of significant power needs for AI processing.

He added that dividend payers in the financial sector, like bigger banks, credit card companies, and insurers, had a solid year given the higher interest rates. On the flip side, the higher rates negatively impacted REITs and the broader property market across the country. The energy sector also remained soft due to oversupply of oil and constrained demand. Additionally, according to Lefkovitz, 2025 will be the fifth year in a row where companies allocate more funds to share repurchases than to dividends, roughly $1 trillion versus $750 billion.

With that outlook in mind, let’s take a look at the high growth monthly dividend stocks to invest in now.
