3 High-Yield Dividend Stocks Paying Up to 10.9%

Equities have several advantages as sources of income. First, they often come with higher upfront yields. Second, they often boost their payouts over time, which serve as nice cost-of-living adjustments for retirees. Of course, higher yields come with higher risk. But for those who understand the potential downsides, high-yield stocks can be a compelling alternative to fixed-income investments. To help get you started, I’ve highlighted three of my favorite high-yield dividend stocks right now.

Over the past few years, Kimbell Royalty Partners LP (NYSE:KRP) has quietly bought up thousands of lucrative mineral rights across the country. Management has tripled the partnership’s holdings since its stock market debut in 2017. Now Kimbell collects royalties from the production of more than 92,000 wells nationwide. Altria Group Inc (NYSE:MO) is a textbook example. Cigarettes cost a penny to make and they’re sold for about a dollar each. And they’re addictive. Last year, the company generated $0.40 in profit on every dollar that shareholders invested in the business. Medical Properties Trust, Inc. (NYSE:MPW) sees a big opportunity. Over the past few years, management has quietly accumulated a portfolio of clinics, hospitals, and medical offices. With healthcare spending growing each year, these properties have become veritable cash machines.
