5 Rock-Solid, High-Yield Tech Stocks Paying 5% (or More)
Want to give yourself an excellent opportunity to consistently outperform the broader market and make bank? Then consider packing your portfolio with high-quality dividend stocks.
According to a J.P. Morgan Asset Management report released in 2013, dividend stocks absolutely run circles around their non-dividend-paying peers. Between 1972 and 2012, publicly traded companies that initiated and grew their payouts averaged an annual return of 9.5%. By comparison, non-dividend-paying stocks delivered a 1.6% average annual return over the same period. That's a nearly 500% average annual improvement that investors can take advantage of by simply focusing on profitable, time-tested businesses.
But here's the thing you might not realize: tech stocks can be exceptional dividend payers, too. Even though the tech sector is traditional known for being high-growth, there are a number of high-yield companies that can pack investors' pockets with reliable income. Here are five rock-solid, high-yield tech stocks you can trust that are paying at least 5% (or more) annually.
