3 Tech Stocks With Dividend Yields Above 5%
Historically, the tech industry was not known for paying dividends to investors. Although Microsoft and Cisco have become dividend stalwarts today, back in the 1990s and early 2000s, they famously eschewed dividends, preferring to reinvest their profits into growing their businesses.
However, as the tech industry has matured, many companies have reached the point where it makes sense to follow the lead of older, stable companies, and start sharing profits with shareholders.
Today, AT&T (NYSE: T), International Business Machines (NYSE: IBM), and Seagate Technology (NASDAQ: STX) not only offer dividends that yield more than 5%, they also offer investors considerable potential for stock price growth.
