Top Dividend Stocks With Yields Over 4%
So you're looking for a great dividend stock. Fantastic! There are dozens -- maybe even hundreds -- all around the stock market; finding one oughtta be easy as pie!
Oh, you want a great dividend stock that yields more than 4%, you say. Now, those are a bit harder to come by. A lot of reliable dividend payers -- the Coca-Colas, Procter & Gambles, and Johnson & Johnsons of this world -- only yield between 2% and 3%. And some stocks with higher yields may not be particularly reliable.
Good news, though: Three companies that offer a combination of reliable payout coupled with high yield are Canadian telecom BCE (NYSE: BCE), pipeline operator Magellan Midstream Partners (NYSE: MMP), and oil major Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE: RDS-A) (NYSE: RDS-B). Here's why dividend investors should love these three top yielders.
