The average stock in the S&P 500 yields just under 1.9% these days. Not only is that less than half the historical average, but it isn't much better than what someone could earn on government bonds or a bank CD. Because of that, investors seeking a more lucrative dividend stream need to dig a little deeper.
While there are several higher-yielding options available, two that stand out are energy midstream master limited partnerships (MLPs) Crestwood Equity Partners (NYSE:CEQP) and Oasis Midstream Partners (NYSE:OMP). That's because both offer an attractive dividend that currently yields more than 9%, which they not only back with sound financials, but should increase in the coming years.
