Once investors start to look at dividend stocks with yields north of 4%, it's time to start considering whether that payout is sustainable or headed for a future cut. If you can find those reliable, high-yield dividend stocks, then you'll want to hang on to them for as long as possible.
If high-yield dividend stocks sound appealing to you, here are three companies you should consider: Total SA (NYSE:TOT), Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (NYSE:BIP), and National Grid (NYSE:NGG). Integrated oil companies are like massive ships in the ocean. They are too big to change direction on a dime, but their size allows them to handle tougher seas -- or, in this case, low oil and gas prices. Businesses with steady revenue streams and geographic competitive advantages are often described as "toll road-like." For those seeking high-yield investments, there is no better way to heap praise on the stock than to say it has toll-road qualities. Like Brookfield Infrastructure Partners, National Grid is the kind of long-term, high-yield dividend stock you want to look for.
