One company offers a yield of nearly 11%. Dividend investors face a constant dilemma: They want to maximize the yield they receive from income stocks, but they also need to ensure that the companies they invest in have sustainable dividends and business models. Generally, the higher the yield, the greater the risk to the business model or dividend.
But not all income stocks with high dividend yields are trouble. We asked three of our Foolish investors to name a top stock with a high dividend yield that they believe income investors should consider looking into. Rising to the top of the list were coal producer Alliance Resource Partners (NASDAQ:ARLP), food service distribution company Sysco Corporation (NYSE:SYY), and tech giant IBM (NYSE:IBM).
