Therefore, we think it could be wise to secure some income by betting on fundamentally sound dividend-paying stocks, particularly with Treasury Yields declining. Investors’ interest in high-dividend-yield stocks is evident in the SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 High Dividend ETF’s (SPYD) 23.1% returns year-to-date.
Dividends paid by GlaxoSmithKline plc (GSK), Vector Group Ltd . (VGR), Star Group, L.P. (SGU), and Ennis, Inc. (EBF) translate to high yields at their current price levels. Given their impressive payout histories and fundamentals, it could be wise to bet on these stocks now.
