3 High-Yield Dividend Stocks to Buy and Hold for Decades
When interest rates rise, the cost of capital increases. So it makes sense that investors should demand a reason for putting money into stocks instead of a risk-free asset like a Treasury Bill.
The easiest way to justify investing in a stock is if it produces a dividend yield equal to or higher than the risk-free rate. Investing in equal parts of Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F), United Parcel Service (NYSE: UPS), and Brookfield Renewable (NYSE: BEP) (NYSE: BEPC) produces a dividend yield of 4.4% while also granting exposure to the potential upside (or downside) of each investment.
Here's why each company is set up to succeed over the long term, and why each stock is worth considering as a source of passive income.
