Where to turn for yield then? Well, a myriad of companies’ stocks are offering dividend yields twice, or even three times what the Treasury is paying. Of course, you don’t get the guaranteed nominal return on your capital when you buy stocks.

Recently, I used my Guru Strategies (computer models that are based on the approaches of Warren Buffett and other highly successful investors) to find some of the most fundamentally sound high-dividend-paying stocks in the market. Here’s a handful that stood out. Here’s a handful that stood out. AT&T (T), Eli Lilly (LLY), Sanofi-Aventis (SNY), Petroleo Brasileiro (PBR) and Entergy (ETR).
