Investors who buy a broad index fund right now -- for example, the Vanguard Total Stock Market Fund -- will earn a dividend yield that's very close to the overall market's 2%. While that's far better than you could do with money market funds or bank deposits, it's not a particularly exciting payout.
The good news is that there are plenty of stocks yielding double that annual rate, and even if a market-thumping yield often involves some trade-offs, income investors don't have to give up profit or sales growth potential to achieve a 4% dividend yield. With that in mind, here are three growing businesses with hefty dividend payouts that you might consider adding to your watchlist: Garmin (NASDAQ:GRMN), Mattel (NASDAQ:MAT), and GameStop (NYSE:GME).
