3 High-Yield Dividend Stocks You Definitely Want to Consider
With broader market benchmarks like the S&P 500 offering up a less-than-exciting yield of around 2%, I've found a trio of high yielders that offer at least twice that. Better yet, they all have long histories of increasing their dividends over time. If you are looking for income today, three high-yield dividend stocks you definitely want to consider are Duke Energy (NYSE: DUK), International Business Machines (NYSE: IBM), and Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. (NYSE: MMP). Here's a quick primer on each.
Duke Energy is one of the largest electric and natural gas utilities in the United States. Duke's yield is currently around 4.2%. It's increased its dividend for 13 consecutive years. The most interesting thing here, however, is how Duke has changed its fundamental business strategy over the last few years.
