You may have to date a lot of crazies before you find someone you’d want to share your Netflix password with. The same thing, it seems, applies to high-yield stocks. Like a lot of the people you meet in the dating market, most double-digit payouts come with some, er, “baggage.”
But today’s stock, which sports a lovely 9.8% yield, should inspire confidence. Apollo Commercial Real Estate Finance Inc. (NYSE: ARI) invests in and originates commercial first mortgages. And at least as far as its distribution is concerned, this payout looks reasonably safe. Management has established a good track record, for starters. Apollo has paid a quarterly distribution since 2010. Over that time, executives have raised the payout more or less in line with profits.
