Buy Hold Sell: 5 small caps with big dividends

"Is there a doctor in the house? Is there a doctor in the house! Our Aussie small caps have collapsed, and we can barely feel a pulse." Oh, dear. 

It does feel a little dire, doesn't it? After all, the Small Ordinaries has fallen more than 7% since the beginning of the year, far worse than the country's blue chips (a fall of around 3%). But if there is one thing we can rely on in times like these, particularly in the strong economic environment in which we find ourselves, it's dividends. 

While small caps and dividends don't typically go hand in hand, these pocket rocket yielders are not as rare as you may think. In fact, if we are to go by the MVIS Australia Small-Cap Dividend Payers Index, there are 81 small caps with healthy, reoccurring dividends in our market. 

So to put five of them on the operating table, Livewire's Ally Selby was joined by two accomplished stock surgeons, Hayborough Investment Partners' Ben Rundle and 1851 Capital's Martin Hickson. With more than a few buys in there today, this episode may very well be the thing that resuscitates your portfolio.
