Investors have to look a little harder for high dividend yields. But this does not necessarily mean investors need to sacrifice dividend safety to reach for the highest yields they can find. Instead, we recommend investors keep a focus on quality in the search for yield. This is why we favor the dividend aristocrats, a group of 65 stocks in the S&P 500 that have increased their dividends for at least 25 consecutive years.
The following five stocks represent our top-ranked dividend aristocrats, each with high dividend yields in addition to long histories of dividend growth: Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM), People’s United Financial (NASDAQ:PBCT), Chevron Corporation (NYSE:CVX), AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) and Walgreens Boots Alliance (NASDAQ:WBA).
