There are reasonably safe places to find yield, however, even in this market. That doesn’t mean they’re perfectly safe — there’s no such thing as a free lunch — but for investors looking to drive income with the modest addition of risk, we have a few candidate. These high-yield dividend stocks all yield more than 5%. All of them are U.S.-based companies (if only to avoid the tax complications that can come from overseas dividends).

7 Safe High-Yield Dividend Stocks: Cedar Fair, L.P. (NYSE:FUN) operating results continue to be solid. After growing revenue and adjusted EBITDA 7% in 2015, Cedar Fair just announced another record-setting year. Recommending a newspaper publisher like A.H. Belo Corporation (NYSE:AHC) as a stable dividend investment sounds ludicrous on its face. Fears of a loss in New York have kept a lid on Outfront Media Inc (NYSE:OUT) stock since its 2014 spinoff from CBS Corporation (NYSE:CBS). But the pessimism seems a little overdone at this point. National Health Investors Inc (NYSE:NHI) stock has pulled back over the past few sessions — possibly due to concern about a potential GOP overhaul of the Affordable Care Act. Collectors Universe, Inc. (NASDAQ:CLCT) might seem the oddest choice on this list — and that’s probably the case. The company is an authenticator of coins and sports cards. Shares of Mattel, Inc. (NASDAQ:MAT) are at a 52-week low. Macquarie Infrastructure Corp (NYSE:MIC) owns a number of businesses focusing on U.S. infrastructure (hence the name).
