2 of the Safest Dividend Stocks Yielding More Than 6%
A big mistake investors can make is assuming that a dividend is at risk of being cut simply because of the yield. Whether the yield is 2% or 10%, that alone isn't going to tell you how safe the dividend is. What matters are the underlying financials. After all, a dividend yield can rise sharply simply due to a falling share price.
Two high-yielding stocks that you should consider for your portfolio are Medical Properties Trust (NYSE: MPW) and Camping World Holdings (NYSE: CWH). Although their payouts may appear too good to be true, they are among the safest income stocks you can hold right now.
