Every investor looks for dividends to juice yields and returns, as dividends are an important source of income for many, especially retirees. Here is a list of a few low-risk, high dividend stocks that investors can sleep soundly at night.
1. Altria (NYSE: MO) is a low-risk, large-cap stock that sports a hefty 6% dividend yield. Altria is the largest tobacco manufacturer in the country.
2. Merck (NYSE: MRK) is another low-risk defensive play, as the company recently finished its acquisition of Schering-Plough.
3. Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ), is the last low-risk, high dividend payer. The New Brunswick-based company is the maker of things like Band-Aids, Tylenol, and other products we use everyday.
