Large Cap Dividend Stocks

Investors can put together a package of dividend yielding stocks which fit their individual investing styles. For 2011, we've selected a sampler of some potent large-cap stocks which pay attractive dividends. Here are the selections and our reasons for choosing them.

We've selected a batch of stocks which have historically strong businesses and have been steady dividend payers. There are degrees of risk even in something as relatively low-risk as income stocks. The group we've selected are not necessarily the highest yielders, as those stocks often carry higher risk. Large, stable and yes, probably dull (as in unlikely to have a dividend crippling business event) is the theme for the selection of these stocks.
