FLY Stock Dividend Yield: 6.08% - [By Selena Maranjian]
FLY Leasing (NYSE: FLY ) is also among the high dividend stocks focused on leasing. The company leases commercial jets to airlines. Based in Ireland, it offers an attractive proposition to airlines, leasing them newer, more fuel-efficient planes, and helping them avoid the major expense of buying new aircraft. FLY Leasing's dividend took a tumble in 2009, from $0.50 per quarter to $0.20, but it got a 10% bump in 2012, and recently yielded 5.4%. Its payout ratio is also below 50%, affording room for growth. The stock seems quite attractively priced, too, with a recent P/E ratio of 7.4 and a forward P/E of not much more than 4. It's not growing as rapidly as some peers, but it is growing, and is also carrying relatively less debt than various peers and working on paying it down.

WY and the majority of the timber, forest and paper products companies have a track record of unimpressive returns on capital, cyclical revenue and profit trends, heavy use of capital expenditures, and significant environmental regulation. We also think that WY's conversion to a REIT was a mistake. Morningstar Investment Research's Timber, Forest and Paper Products analyst Dan Rohr said it best when he rated WY and its Timber REIT peers Rayonier (RYN), Potlatch (PCH) and Plum Creek (PCL) as not possessing any economic moat. That probably explains why we only have an ancillary exposure to this industry for our proprietary portfolio based on our holdings in Brookfield Infrastructure (BIP) and Cintas (CTAS). Brookfield's Timber segment only accounts for 5% of its Fund Flows from operations and Cintas's document management business is suffering from reduced prices on recycled paper. At least Cintas Document Management only accounts for 8% of Cintas's revenue.
