200 High-Yield Dividend Stocks

Grab the watchlist

In investing, there are multiple roads that lead to Rome.

We prefer quality stocks, but other investors prefer companies with a very high dividend yield.

In today’s article, you receive a list of 200 (!) high yield companies.

High-Yield Companies

What are high-yield companies?
High-yield dividend companies are firms that pay out a large portion of their profits as dividends, giving investors higher-than-average income compared to most stocks.

Today’s article will focus on High-Yield Companies.

Some of these companies have a dividend yield of over 10%.

They could be interesting because they generate passive income for you.

The higher the dividend yield, the less you need to invest to receive $500 in dividends:

In general, there are three reasons why these kind of companies might be interesting:

1. They perform well on the stock market

2. High yield ≠ high payout ratio

3. They allow you to retire comfortably

1. They perform well on the stock market

Companies with a high dividend yield outperform the S&P 500:

2. High yield ≠ high payout ratio

One thing people often say about High-Yield Companies?

“They pay too much in dividends.”

But guess what? That’s not always true.

You should look at the payout ratio to determine whether the high dividend yield is sustainable.

3. They allow you to retire comfortably

The beautiful thing about High-Yield Companies is that they’ll reliably provide you income.

This allows you to retire comfortably.

But until you retire, you can reinvest your dividends.

This fuels compounding over time.

An example: Altria ($MO)

Do you know Altria?

It’s the best performing stocks over the past 100 years.

Altria makes money by selling cigarettes and smokeless tobacco.

Marlboro is its flagship brand in the U.S.

A $1 investment in Altria in 1925 is worth over $2.6 million (!) today.

Altria’s Recent Performance

Buying Altria in 1925 would’ve been great. But let’s be honest… we weren’t investing back then.

So… what if you bought it 20 years ago?

You would have compounded your money by 14% (!) per year.

If you invested $10,000 twenty years ago, you would receive over $11,000 in yearly dividends today.
