It’s hard not to love high-yielding dividend stocks. After all, if you’re getting, say, 9% back in cash every year, you’re already ahead of the market without a cent of share appreciation. Many investors need that sort of yield from stocks to maintain their lifestyles. Years of zero interest rate policies have taken their tolls on traditional fixed-income portfolios, so sometimes, seeking out high yield is the only way to keep the golf rounds running — or in tighter situations, just keeping the electric turned on.
Knowing the difference between a “good” high yield and a “bad” one can save you from losses and headaches down the road. So today, we’re looking at six more popular high-yield dividend stocks that investors might be better off avoiding altogether: Frontier Communications Corp (FTR), EV Energy Partners, L.P. (EVEP), Tronox Ltd (TROX), SeaWorld Entertainment Inc (SEAS), PDL BioPharma Inc (PDLI) and BP Prudhoe Bay Royalty Trust (BPT).
