2 Stocks to Buy With Dividends Yielding More than 4%
When considering which dividend stocks to invest in, it's okay to be a little greedy and look for companies with a high dividend yield. While you probably don't want to be targeting excessively high yields, many stocks that pay more than 4% per year are still great options. Not only do they pay significantly more than the 1.5% you will earn with the average stock on the S&P 500, but they can also be sustainable over the long run (depending, of course, on the company's financial strength).
Two stocks that currently pay more than 4% per year in dividends that you should consider buying are CareTrust REIT (NASDAQ: CTRE) and Kraft Heinz (NASDAQ: KHC). Both sport strong financials and showed steadfast business performance amid the pandemic, making it easy to understand why the stocks have been outperforming the markets.
