Dividend paying stocks are some of my favorite investments because of the income. There are numerous high paying stocks. Most dividend stocks pay 2-4%. Today I will give you 3 dividend paying stocks that pay out over 6%.
Before I go any further, I would warn against chasing dividend yields. Often dividend stocks will have more volatility, specifically around dividend payout dates. Also, many investors would be better off finding a lower-paying dividend with a blue-chip company. Not the sexiest investment strategy, but it provides some income and growth.
You will notice that stocks on the list are currently bearish, but there is opportunity for them to swing back. So without any more delay, here is my quick list of three stocks that pay a dividend of 6% or more.
3 High Dividend Stock List
Partners Products Partners LP (NYSE: EPD)
Enterprise Energy Partners LP is a limited partnership which has experienced a downturn in recent weeks. It operates in the oil and natural gas space, and many related stocks are due to falling oil and gas prices. Natural gas prices fell by 15% since the beginning of the year and were reduced by around 30% in the last 12 months.
But EPD that generates incredible cash flows through its operations. No matter what price natural gas is. EPD is to charge producers to pump natural gas nationwide. The firm has sufficient funds to pay its high dividend of 6.8%.
Enterprise Product Partners currently cost around $26 per share. At current levels, the 6.8% dividend justifies a purchasing and acquisition strategy. While coronavirus is a threat to the global natural gas market, investors can lock this result and take a long-term approach to the stock. We currently see a price target of $36 for EPD stocks when concerns over the coronavirus and the global economy end. With central banks around the world still depositing money into equity markets, investors can benefit from stocks like EPD that can operate better in any economic situation.
