Dividends4Life: Are These 3 Big-Dividend Stocks Attractive Right Now?

With 2013 almost in the books, right now is a good time to review some of the worst-performing areas of the market in search of compelling opportunities. The overall stock market, as measured by the S&P 500, is up some 25% this year. That means as we approach 2014, high-yielding stocks with attractive valuations are hard to find.

To that end, a few real estate investment trusts, or REITs as they're more commonly known, have badly lagged the performance of the market. Such REITs include Realty Income (NYSE: O ) , HCP (NYSE: HCP ) , and Health Care REIT (NYSE: HCN ) , whose shares have been walloped by fears of the recently announced taper by the Federal Reserve. Despite the panic, these three companies are enjoying solid underlying business conditions. That's why, despite their collapsing stock prices, each looks like a great value opportunity, rather than a value trap.
