In trading on Friday, shares of Provident Financial Services were yielding above the 5% mark based on its quarterly dividend (annualized to $0.96), with the stock changing hands as low as $19.09 on the day. Dividends are particularly important for investors to consider, because historically speaking dividends have provided a considerable share of the stock market's total return.

The S&P 600 Small/MidCap index offers high-yield dividend opportunities, with 33 out of 53 top-yielding stocks meeting both the 'safer' and IDEAL dividend Dogcatcher criteria. Top ten S&P600 dividend 'dogs' are projected to deliver 24% to 93% net gains by November 2026, based on analyst targets and current yields. Stocks like KNTK, SM, CRGY, and DEI stand out for strong total return potential, but investors should beware of negative free cash flow in some high-yield picks.
