10 High-Yielding Small Caps For A Portfolio Return Boost

I’m a big fan of large capitalized stocks because most of them offer a huge diversification. But the great lack of bigger companies is that they do not grow at a fast pace. I’m not talking about Apple, those are exceptions.

The reason is simple: A company with a market cap of $500 million will simply have more room to grow than a company with a market cap of $50 billion. If it makes it to $1 billion, and you’ve invested, you double your money; if the large cap company adds $500 million to its market cap, you’ve only made 1%.

Today I would like to introduce 10 stocks with a yield higher than 3 percent and P/E valuations in an acceptable area while the market capitalization doesn’t reach the 2 billion levels.

These are my results:

Seadrill Partners — Yield: 17.73%
