US$12.3 TRILLION out of thin air…

FTSE 250 dividend stocks
Grainger(LSE: GRI) is one of the UK’s largest landlords. The company can use its size and scale to buy properties with funding at low rates. Economies of scale allow the firm to manage these properties without incurring high costs.
As a result, the stock has become an income champion. Its payout has grown at a compound annual rate of 5.4% for the past decade, and that track record looks set to continue. The pandemic’s impact on the business has been minimal and its dividend is covered 2.6 times by earnings per share. That suggests to me the company could more than double the distribution without having to cut corners elsewhere. Meanwhile, the dividend is backed by income from rental properties.

As such, I think it’s better to own at least five individual funds or a similar amount of stocks in different sectors and industries. I reckon this approach offers the best trade-off between risk and diversification.
There are a couple of trusts I’d invest in for a portfolio. These include
RIT Capital Partners, the
Scottish American Investment Company.
Each of these investment trusts provides something different. RIT is focused on delivering positive returns for investors in all market environments. To this end, the investment trust owns a portfolio of alternative assets such as hedge funds, private equity funds, private businesses and real estate.
RISK WARNINGS AND DISCLAIMERS
The value of stocks and shares and any dividend income, may fall as well as rise, and is not guaranteed so you may get back less than you invested. You should not invest any money you can’t afford to lose and should not rely on any dividend income to meet your living expenses. Stocks listed on overseas exchanges may be subject to additional dealing and exchange rate charges, administrative costs, withholding taxes, different accounting and reporting standards, may have other tax implications, and may not provide the same, or any, regulatory protection. Exchange rate charges may adversely affect the value of shares in sterling terms, and you could lose money in sterling even if the stock rises in the currency of origin. Any performance statistics that do not adjust for exchange rate changes are likely to result in inaccurate real returns for sterling-based UK investors.
