Dividend investing is generally a long-term strategy, and investors may want to look twice at a company offering a big payout. "Be choosy. There are 200 stocks on the market right now with an implied yield above 10 percent. They're not all going to deliver. This is the equivalent of what high-yield or junk bonds pay, and the risk framework is similar," Kramer says.
Now could be a time to lock in solid dividend payouts for beaten-down stocks. Here are a few dividend-paying stocks that analysts like now: Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), Verizon Communications (VZ), Altria Group (MO) and Procter & Gamble Co. (PG).
