High dividend yields can often mean traders don't think a dividend is sustainable long term. Maybe a business is struggling to grow; maybe there are financial difficulties brewing because of debt. But there's almost always a flaw in a business when dividend yields go over 5% or 6%.
A high dividend yield doesn't mean long-term investors should abandon a stock, though. And I think Ford (NYSE:F), MGM Growth Properties (NYSE:MGP), and Six Flags (NYSE:SIX) are stocks with dividends over 6% that investors should still buy today.
