For those investors seeking income along with their capital appreciation, the SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 High Dividend ETF (NYSEARCA:SPYD) gives you some ideas about where to look for dividend stocks to buy.
The exchange-traded fund tracks the performance of the S&P 500 High Dividend index, a collection of 80 companies held within the S&P 500 index that pay relatively high dividends.
What one person thinks is high might not be what I think is high, and vice versa. So, for this article, I’m setting the bar at 4%. That’s considerably higher than the average index dividend yield of 1.28%. As a result, the risk is also higher.
However, to help you out, I’ll give you seven S&P 500 stocks yielding 4% or more while also keeping a lid on the group’s average beta and systematic risk. I’ll be looking for a number close to 1, preferably even below 1. Here’s what I’ve been able to find:
Dow (NYSE:DOW) Lumen Technologies (NYSE:LUMN) Altria Group (NYSE:MO) Kinder Morgan (NYSE:KMI) Western Union (NYSE:WU) AbbVie (NYSE:ABBV) IBM (NYSE:IBM)
Dividend Stocks to Buy: Dow (DOW) Source: Jonathan Weiss / Shutterstock.com Dividend Yield: 4.6% Beta: 1.73% Sector: Basic Materials
The first thing you’ll notice about this collection of high-yielding S&P 500 stocks is that I’ve included one from each sector. So, for example, Dow represents the basic materials sector. It’s also got the highest beta of the bunch.
