What a difference a month makes. The last time we looked at the top dividend stocks in the S&P 500, the market was in a funk, negative for the year-to-date, and it looked like the fear trade would be here for a while. Cut to today: The S&P 500 has rallied 3.5% over the last month, and is back up to record-high territory.
To get a sense of what’s out there among high-yield dividend stocks, here are the top 10 S&P 500 dividend stocks for May: #10: Health Care REIT (HCN), #9: AT&T (T), #8: Teco Energy (TE), #7: HCP (HCP), #6: Kinder Morgan (KMI), #5: Transocean (RIG), #4: CenturyLink (CTL), #3: Ensco (ESV), #2: Frontier Communications (FTR) and #1: Windstream Holdings (WIN).
