Stop Passing Over These 2 High-Yield Dividend Stocks

Not all high yield dividend stocks are created equal. Sometimes a company's dividend yield is inflated because its business is in peril and its stock price has plunged and other times a company might be overextending the amount it dishes out to investors.
