3 Dividend Stocks That Pay You More Than Pepsi Does
Beverage and snack foods giant PepsiCo (NASDAQ: PEP) doesn't need much in the way of an introduction. The $200 billion company owns some of the world's best-known brands, including its namesake Pepsi soft drinks, Lay's potato chips, Quaker Oats, and Lipton tea. Income investors particularly like the fact that its diversified product base supports the consistent payment of a dividend that, at current shares prices, yields 2.9% -- more than twice the 1.38% that the S&P 500 is yielding this month.
However, if your big goal as an investor is to find safe, high-yielding dividend stocks, here are three that you can buy right now that offer better payouts than PepsiCo with even less risk.
