Two Dividend Stocks Your Portfolio Hopes You Buy

I recently highlighted the massive gains made from Microsoft (MSFT_) in Microsoft Hits 52-Week High, Set to Crush $50. Investors who bought when I suggested the software maker about a year ago are enjoying a 50% return while collecting dividends every quarter. I also suggested Corning (GLW_) and it's also up about 50% in the last six months.

I still love Microsoft and Corning. If you own either or both, stay the course because I can't think of a reason to exit. I do want to share two companies I follow and are once again on my radar as long-term, dividend-income plays. Intel has gained about 35% since I declared it a "buy and forget" stock. AT&T (T_) is a premier communications holding company. Its subsidiaries and affiliates, AT&T operating companies, are the providers of AT&T services in the United States and around the world.
