The shares of these two U.S. banks continue to rebound from their pandemic lows. Even though a slowing economy is forcing them to bolster their loan reserves, they remain well capitalized. That should let them return more cash to shareholders.

H&R’s spinoff of its retail properties to Primaris let both REITs focus on what they do best. The split should also lift their long-term asset values and unit prices, and give them more cash flow for distributions.

Some companies offer dividend reinvestment plans, or DRIPs, which allow shareholders to receive additional shares instead of cash dividends.
For a number of reasons, we think DRIPs are a good way for investors to slowly build wealth over a long period of time.
First, DRIPs eliminate the nuisance effect of receiving small cash-dividend payments.
Second, some DRIPs let you buy shares from your reinvested dividends at a 2% to 5% discount on the current share price.
Third, many DRIPs also allow you to buy additional shares on a monthly or quarterly basis without paying commissions.
Keep in mind, though, that while there is no harm in participating in a DRIP, too many investors select their investment ideas solely on the basis of the existence of the DRIP option.
We think the availability of a DRIP is only a bonus, rather than a reason to invest by itself....
