If you're an income investor looking to stabilize your portfolio, or just want a little extra cash, dividend-paying stocks are often a great thing to own. With interest rates still historically quite low, you can get yields that are more than three or even four times what a bank might pay. But which dividend stocks are the best? There are many great options, but I like to look for companies with a solid track record of paying and even increasing dividends, along with some potential for share price growth. Here are 11 dividend stocks that are worth a look right now:
1. Caterpillar
2. Mattel
3. AT&T
5. Tanger Factory Outlet Centers
6. ExxonMobil
7. Johnson & Johnson
8. Ford
9. Procter and Gamble
10. Yum! Brands
11. HSBC
