There Are 300 Ultra-High-Yield Dividend Stocks on Wall Street -- but These 2 Are Arguably the Safest of the Bunch
Since October 1994, these two high-octane income stocks have collectively raised their payouts 218 times!
Overview
With thousands of publicly traded companies and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to choose from, there is no shortage of strategies to build wealth on Wall Street. But statistically speaking, buying and holding high-quality dividend stocks delivers some of the most attractive annualized returns.
As of the closing bell on July 10, approximately 300 stocks (minimum $300 million market cap and excluding ETFs) were sporting ultra-high dividend yields of at least 5%. Although some high-octane income stocks are more trouble than they're worth, two super-safe and supercharged dividend stocks can be found among these ultra-high-yielders: Enterprise Products Partners (NYSE: EPD) and Realty Income (NYSE: O).
