3 Stocks that Pay You to Handsomely to Own Them
Who doesn't like to get paid? When it comes to investing that can mean a number of things. For me, that means a nice dividend yield and a long history of paying that dividend each and every quarter. Right now integrated oil major Royal Dutch Shell plc (NYSE: RDS-B), midstream giant Enterprise Products Partners L.P. (NYSE: EPD), and electric and gas utility Duke Energy Corp (NYSE: DUK) are companies that reliably pay you.
Royal Dutch Shell yields 6.8%. The oil major has a long history of rewarding investors with dividends, but the size of the dividend check has been stuck in neutral since 2014 when oil began a deep decline from which it has yet to fully recover. The question on many investors' minds is how safe is Royal Dutch Shell's dividend?
