We feel that these dividend-paying equities - as long as they are from high-quality, low-risk issuers - can give retirement investors a smart option to replace low-yielding Treasury bonds (or other bonds). One way to identify suitable candidates is to look for stocks with an average dividend yield of 3%, and positive average annual dividend growth. Many stocks increase dividends over time, helping to offset the effects of inflation. Here are three dividend-paying stocks retirees should consider for their nest egg portfolio.
Corporate Office Properties (OFC) is currently shelling out a dividend of $0.28 per share, with a dividend yield of 3.91%. This compares to the REIT and Equity Trust - Other industry's yield of 4.09%. Piedmont Office (PDM) is paying out a dividend of 0.21 per share at the moment, with a dividend yield of 3.89% compared to the REIT and Equity Trust - Other industry's yield of 4.09%. Currently paying a dividend of 0.9 per share, Ryman Hospitality Properties (RHP) has a dividend yield of 4.25%. This is compared to the REIT and Equity Trust - Other industry's yield of 4.09% and the S&P 500's current yield. Looking at dividend growth, the company's current annualized dividend of $3.6 is up 5.88% from last year.
