Investors looking for yields no longer need to sift through smaller, high-risk names. Top energy stocks, which historically traded at much lower yields, currently offer yields that would have been unimaginable a few years ago. Three such midstream stocks are Enterprise Products Partners (NYSE: EPD), Magellan Midstream Partners (NYSE: MMP), and MPLX (NYSE: MPLX). All the three are trading at yields above 10%. Importantly, the associated risk for each stock doesn't seem to have increased to the extent the stocks have fallen. As an investor, you need to know key facts that make each of these dividend stocks a compelling buy.
The yields of Enterprise Products Partners and Magellan Midstream Partners largely tracked each other historically, and both stocks are currently trading at yields much higher than the historical average. The same is true for MPLX, though as it was founded in 2012, it has a relatively shorter history.
