2 Stocks to Buy With Dividends Yielding More Than 5%

The energy industry has been a volatile sector for a few years now. But if you can stomach the volatility inherent in the sector, there are opportunities for income investors to pick up some decent yields today. Two stocks you'll want to look at are...

Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE:RDS-A) is one of the world's largest integrated oil and natural gas companies. The company's history dates back over 100 years, so it has seen a commodity cycle or two. But what really draws the eye here, particularly for income investors, is the stock's around 7% yield. At the other end of the risk spectrum is Enterprise Products Partners (NYSE:EPD). This partnership is one of the largest midstream energy companies in the United States, owning things like pipelines and storage facilities that move oil and natural gas from the well to the point of consumption. This is largely a toll-taker business, with Enterprise getting paid for letting customers move products through its system.
