Investing in dividend companies can be a lower-stress version of investing. No matter what the share price does, you know that you are going to get a certain percentage return. Ideally, the higher the yield, the better. As the yield gets higher, though, so too does the risk that the company's payout is at risk of getting cut, and that risk can make us lose sleep at night.
So we asked three of our contributors to highlight one stock that has a high yield -- and not one where you need to perpetually worry about a payout cut. Here's what they had to say: At 4.2%, TransCanada pays a pretty generous dividend. While it might not be the highest yield in the energy infrastructure sector, it is among the safest in the group. One company that stands out as particularly safe in the ultra-high-yield category is StoneMor Partners , which is currently yielding 10.5%. For Magellan Midstream Partners , that is only one of several reasons it's a high-yield stock that you can sleep well owning.
