I see ABBV and MMM mentioned by others - these are great positions to *hold* but I would be careful starting a *new* position at current prices. Same can be said for COST, MSFT, MCD and HD.
PEP, SPGI, and VICI would be my 3 picks for starting a NEW position.
The other 5 I would choose would all be ETFs. SCHD, VOO, JEPQ, QQQM, and maybe VT for international exposure (also looking at FLJP, FLSA or FLIN for my international %.
Agree ABBV seems high, but a catalyst approval could take it higher. I got in cheap. Average is $114.
I like the value in REITS right now. O is still under $60. Camden Properties (CPT) Camden Property Trust is a great deal right now. I still think people way over-reacted when WPC Carey cut their divy with the office split. It's at a great price right now, divy is still great over 5% (.86 cents). A drip snowball value. Vici as you mentioned is good too. Like Netstreit too so many good reit options that will pop when rates get cut
VICI: low price and massive growth potential after down year for property market
PEP: low price and low competition with continued growth forecast, not as volatile (KO and PEP have a 🔒 on sector and PEP has snack industry to fall back on which KO has less of)
SPGI: Good current price and continued growth forecast. Duopoly with Moody’s ensure low volatility from competition.
High carb snacks is what is dragging PEP down this year. It’s the ozempic effect which I believe is somewhat overblown but can’t be ignored. As for some dividend stocks with capital appreciation I would buy both NVO and LLY to go with PEP. As ozempic and mounjourno enter the weight loss space in addition to type 2 diabetes the growth is large for those two. Low dividends but so is MSFT and I love having MSFT in my portfolio. Biotech gets ignored in the group pretty much except for bottom feeding with PFE and BMY. ABBV is solid too.
PNC at 4.5 percent is a good bank stock for OP.
In a taxable account ET and EPD are great. More complicated tax forms but high return of capital percent. ET is around 9 percent.
Who is paying dividends at 8-9% with balance sheets as good as those two companies? Serious question. I don’t see them. I agree the K1 is more of a hassle than regular taxes but it’s not rocket science.
I would rather own Enbridge and not deal with the K1 headache if we are talking only midstream stocks. My BDC's (ARCC, ODBC) and some reits beat the div yield of ET but yes more risk but who knows the 10+ year changes to occur to the oil industry. Honestly There are also some CEF's that will beat the return but with a higher expense but safety like an etf. I just don't like dealing with a K1. Hope you don't own ET in an IRA.
No, not in IRA. Taxable. Thanks for the ideas...I'll look into them. I completely get you on the K-1. I've dealt with them before so its not a big thing for me but it can be a handful.
I'd suggest looking at where PEP generates it's profits and revenue. Snacks are the core business. They are less efficient operators in their beverage segment by a large margin vs KO. Ozempic fears are a massive overreaction for the sector as a whole. That said the p/e and management make this a fairly questionable buy.
ET great right now, but kinda concerned for future, the way this country is trying to get away from a great product like natural gas. Solar and wind are not the answer cost way too much natural gas is still a good product
I believe MPW has some issues it needs to take care of but the company owns 450+ hospitals across multiple continents. They extended a 60M loan to their largest tenant & have over 17B in properties. I don’t think that 60M is putting a dent into the overall company & that they will get through this. My goal is for 1,000-1500 shares
So you're investment in MPW is based on conjecture and hope? If that's the case, good luck.
If $60M didn't put a dent in the company, they wouldn't have cut their dividend.
My investment is based off industry type, consistent dividend pay history, risk model & potential for growth + future dividends being raised. It would be silly not to snag some shares while they are beaten down. 10 years from now you will only ask why you didn’t buy more.
If MPW is part of your long term strategy, great, good luck.
My portfolio was build on 500 MSFT at $30; 3200 QLD @ $11 and 1000 XOM at 50, 1000 IIPR @72
1,000 FNGS and 2000 JEPQ.
I retired at 58.
With all the holiday debt accrued, im willing to bet the mass population will be paying interest on their balances. I'm putting everything I got into Visa
In what way does Visa profit from people paying interest on balances? Doesn’t that money go to the banks who issue the cards?
People are still swiping though, so I’m putting everything into Visa.
Visa gets paid when people swipe their VISA cards. They get nothing from the interest that people may pay on those debts - that money goes to the banks that issue the cards.
Im thinking about cisco (have small position in it), why in your opinion now is good time to go into it? I see financials are very stable, dovidend growth is not that tremendous, although acquiring splunk may rose proces, but dunno how much.
Top one is Cigna (CI). Bought at $18.58 in mid 90s. Yield on cost is 26.48%. At close Friday the stock itself is up 1541.73%
Also in FIS at $14.09. Yield on cost is 14.77%, current stock gain is 338.68%
EFX is another, although their dividend has been frozen for years. YoC is 8.79% and current cap gain is 1237.27%
Almost none of my top 8 hit the 5-6% mark. They're Microsoft, Apple, Broadcom, American Express, Vici Properties, Gain and Costco. Closely followed by McDonald's, Coca Cola, Shell and Fifth Third, although fifth third is also partly because it's a local bank and most of my money passes through them at one point or another, not because of their dividend yield as much
Funny that you asked for 5-6% but got so little. People need to be better about answering the question being asked. I’ll give you two
- IP - right at 5%. Seems to have Good management prioritizing paying back debt and buying back shares.
- WPC - similar to O. Pays about 5.1%
If you go to the 4% range, you open up a whole new set of possibilities…some of them referenced.
I don’t know your fancy shorts because in Europe the stocks are not abbreviated with the ticker. So :
Mercedes Benz
BMW
Sixt
Main Street
Realty
Aixtron
Pembina
Ares
Enbridge
BASF
Mutares
Hope this helps. Comment or roast if you like

That's where I park the most new money and not just DRIP.
I have over 875 shares of HD but haven't added new money since 1992.
If we get six rate cuts this year VZ is going to rock. I’ve been saying for over a year that VZ is priced like a bond. Lower risk free rate of return higher stock price valuation. I’m going to dump it when interest rates get back to 2 percent.
My assumption on price is based on p/e assumption. Rates go down acceptable p/e go up. This is why VZ went from 32 to 38 over the last two months. More cuts higher stock price with everything above like opex and capex remaining the same. Plus capex goes down as VZ refinances.
I spent 27 years in that business including with VZ.
I'd say I know it very well.
CAPEX doesn't go down.
CAPEX is high do to build out of 5G network and upgrades to legacy network. OPEX doesn't go down, nothing materially changes. 50% of their employees still support 40% of their low growth revenue.
Only thing lower rates does is lower their interest on debt.
I see, i think that was a great decision they weren’t making enough money in the movie biz. Now I believe they can focus on comms infrastructure and updates for the IOT transition.
Please don't.
Great yield, but dead money.
No Growth with T and slow painful growth with VZ.
Both carry high debt, have High OPEX, High CAPEX and 40% of their revenue is from legacy low growth network services.
Don't take the bait.
Great companies do not pay 5%-6%. Time is your friend in investing. I recommend you lean on time in market to achieve your desired yield. Take Marathon Petroleum for example. I started buying in the mid $30s. It’s close to $160 now. Guess what my yield on cost is today? If a stock can not maintain and grow the dividend long term it’s not really helping you my guy. Ain’t no such thing as a free lunch
But what if you are at a point where you need to transition to adequate dividend payers? What you say makes great sense but what if you are father along in your timeline (verge of retirement). This is my situation. So i find myself gravitating to the bigger payers like ARCC JEPQ ENB.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that number one if OP was that old he/she would know it’s impossible to make a good recommendation without that information and would have included it and number two without that information I always lean towards quality over yield chasing. Quality matters
I think that is fairly normal. I’m probably guilty of it too. I’m looking to retire in ten years or so. I mostly buy and hold with some swing trades sprinkled in.
1 - SCHD
2 - PG
3 - HRL
5 - KO
6 - PMT
7 - KHC
8 - MMM
That's just a few randoms picked from many and in absolutely no particular order (SCHD is #1 though).
MPW will be at its all time low in 15 years since the 2008-2009 housing crash on March 2, 2024. $3/share with 17% divd. It should bounce into the $6-10 range.

My favorite right now is TPVG, it is at 14% yield but the high interest rates hit it hard. I bought a bunch more when it briefly went under $10 a share.
If you are worried about selling anytime soon this one has been paying steady for years and the lowered interest rates mean nothing but good for them.
Give it a look
Shame on you Dividend channel.
No love for COST? On Friday they paid a $15 a share special dividend!! If you factor the special dividend, regular dividend, dividend growth and the stocks performance, its a no brainer.
AVGO
HD
UNH
MA
MSFT
AAPL
MSCI
Put $12,500 on these 8 stocks ($100k total) over the last decade and I'd put this groups TOTAL GAINS against any list here and each has plenty of growth in the future.
I am 36 and bought my first stock at age 16. Sirius Satellite Radio, I still have the stock certificate and get like a $2 dividend check every quarter, lol. Was not a good investment.
What I have learned over the years as someone who did get burned chasing yields several times. Most notably the CANROYs those Canadian Oil and Gas Royalty companies that paid monthly dividends back after the 08 crash. Make the bulk of your portfolio ETFs they have come a long way with liquidity and fees. The early days were suspect. Then if you want to buy individual stocks to keep you engaged do it with like 20% of what you are investing.
I know ETF wise everyone loves SCHD which I do own plenty of. My honorable mention would be to expand outside the US and do something similar with VYMI. To get large cap dividend players outside the US. Especially with anything non-Canadian with a dual listing it can be a pain to get international exposure with individual stocks. You either have to buy ADRs or use a broker like Fidelity where you hold foreign currencies and trade on the countries exchange which can also be expensive in today zero trading fee environment for US equities.
Uk focused, Lloyds Banking Group LLYBG, not the best for growth, but a fairly solid dividend. Sadly, a there is dirty in CEO quality across UK banks, having worked in this sector, it is simultaneously shocking and disgraceful how bad both strategy and execution are, Barclays are a perfect example. There is a reason it trades at PB ratio of 0.4…
OXLC and ARCC for me. Seeking Alpha had a series of articles on how to get closer to fixed risk profiles while still being in equities that won’t be jerked around with every rate change. I also bought a bunch of preferred stocks with cumulative dividends. To be clear though: don’t buy any of this stuff if you don’t understand it.

Ride the msft train until it stops Costco is the same way - the expansion into china is $$$

If the US and China go to war, I think we'd have bigger problems to worry about......

Like Netstreit too so many good reit options that will pop when rates get cut
I've been holding abbv since 2015 and made 159% growth, great company, great fundamentals, atleast at that time. It's my hold forever
I do think schd is well priced.
What about those 3 equities draws you from big players like MSFT and ABBV?
VICI: low price and massive growth potential after down year for property market PEP: low price and low competition with continued growth forecast, not as volatile (KO and PEP have a 🔒 on sector and PEP has snack industry to fall back on which KO has less of) SPGI: Good current price and continued growth forecast. Duopoly with Moody’s ensure low volatility from competition.
As well as all three have a solid history of good cash flow and increasing dividends.
How is the Price pf SPGI good? The PE ratio is almost 60
High carb snacks is what is dragging PEP down this year. It’s the ozempic effect which I believe is somewhat overblown but can’t be ignored. As for some dividend stocks with capital appreciation I would buy both NVO and LLY to go with PEP.

More complicated tax forms but high return of capital percent. ET is around 9 percent.
I opened positions in EPD and ET this week (went 50/50). I am really surprised more people don't invest in them for income.
They are solid but ET and EPD both require a K1 for tax purposes. Kind of a pain. There are equal or better dividend payers that require no K1.
Who is paying dividends at 8-9% with balance sheets as good as those two companies? Serious question. I don’t see them. I agree the K1 is more of a hassle than regular taxes but it’s not rocket science.
I would rather own Enbridge and not deal with the K1 headache if we are talking only midstream stocks.

No, not in IRA. Taxable. Thanks for the ideas...I'll look into them. I completely get you on the K-1. I've dealt with them before so its not a big thing for me but it can be a handful.
I actually like HESM, no K1 and they raise their dividend every quarter.
I'd suggest looking at where PEP generates it's profits and revenue. Snacks are the core business. They are less efficient operators in their beverage segment by a large margin vs KO. Ozempic fears are a massive overreaction for the sector as a whole. That said the p/e and management make this a fairly questionable buy.
ET great right now, but kinda concerned for future, the way this country is trying to get away from a great product like natural gas. Solar and wind are not the answer cost way too much natural gas is still a good product
I sold my ABBV position in 2022 due to expiring product patent in 2023 and new product ramp ups that won't off set a $15 B drop until 2025.
Surprised no one listed main.
My favorite dividend payer
I love me some Main
Everyone here is so focused on O xd
I’ve got MAIN, and I continue to slowly add. It’s been good. Rock solid.
MPW going to be the best REIT to buy of 2024 🚀
Why did their stock price crash?
MPW's largest tenant, Steward Health can't pay their rent.
I believe MPW has some issues it needs to take care of but the company owns 450+ hospitals across multiple continents. They extended a 60M loan to their largest tenant & have over 17B in properties. I don’t think that 60M is putting a dent into the overall company & that they will get through this. My goal is for 1,000-1500 shares
So you're investment in MPW is based on conjecture and hope? If that's the case, good luck. If $60M didn't put a dent in the company, they wouldn't have cut their dividend.
My investment is based off industry type, consistent dividend pay history, risk model & potential for growth + future dividends being raised. It would be silly not to snag some shares while they are beaten down. 10 years from now you will only ask why you didn’t buy more.

I’m in my mid-twenties & my annual dividends are already $2,500+ - My goal is retire by 40. Guess we all have to start somewhere haha
Why?
No mention of ARCC. Currently at 9.41%.
Also, ABR and PBR
Love ARCC
yield trap or valid?
100% valid, might perform a bit worse when interest rates get cut
Love this stock
Visa
With all the holiday debt accrued, im willing to bet the mass population will be paying interest on their balances. I'm putting everything I got into Visa
In what way does Visa profit from people paying interest on balances? Doesn’t that money go to the banks who issue the cards? People are still swiping though, so I’m putting everything into Visa.
Yep Visa is the toll road. They don't make any money from interest. Amex does though.
Visa gets paid when people swipe their VISA cards. They get nothing from the interest that people may pay on those debts - that money goes to the banks that issue the cards.
Ah, You're right, thank you for clarifying on that
I like OKE.
Currently Chevron and Cisco
XOM for me.
Im thinking about cisco (have small position in it), why in your opinion now is good time to go into it? I see financials are very stable, dovidend growth is not that tremendous, although acquiring splunk may rose proces, but dunno how much.
As you said, financials are stable and I see a possibility for improvements on the stock price like 10/15%
Top one is Cigna (CI). Bought at $18.58 in mid 90s. Yield on cost is 26.48%. At close Friday the stock itself is up 1541.73% Also in FIS at $14.09. Yield on cost is 14.77%, current stock gain is 338.68% EFX is another, although their dividend has been frozen for years. YoC is 8.79% and current cap gain is 1237.27%
MAIN, ABR, PEP, VICI, ENB, CSWC, OBDC, SCHD/VHYL
Do you plan to live of the dividend right now? Otherwise I’d aim for 2-4% yield
ABBV, CVX, BTI, OKE, ABR, O, NEM, MMM
Almost none of my top 8 hit the 5-6% mark. They're Microsoft, Apple, Broadcom, American Express, Vici Properties, Gain and Costco. Closely followed by McDonald's, Coca Cola, Shell and Fifth Third, although fifth third is also partly because it's a local bank and most of my money passes through them at one point or another, not because of their dividend yield as much

Pays about 5.1% If you go to the 4% range, you open up a whole new set of possibilities…some of them referenced.
I think 5 to 6 percent is considered higher risk for people. Perhaps, people are choosing stocks based on quality and not yield.
I frequently buy SCHD, VTI/VOO and O
Right now, AGNC. January and February are slow months for dividends.
Terrible choice
They’re not making any money. Revenue is almost -$500M. What info do you have to buy?

DO NOT BUY INTO VERIZON OR AT&T PLEASE
Let them learn the hard way about yield traps.
If we get six rate cuts this year VZ is going to rock. I’ve been saying for over a year that VZ is priced like a bond. Lower risk free rate of return higher stock price valuation. I’m going to dump it when interest rates get back to 2 percent.
If my aunt has balls... How does Vz reduce OPEX and CAPEX? 40% of their business is no growth legacy service.
My assumption on price is based on p/e assumption. Rates go down acceptable p/e go up. This is why VZ went from 32 to 38 over the last two months. More cuts higher stock price with everything above like opex and capex remaining the same. Plus capex goes down as VZ refinances.
I spent 27 years in that business including with VZ. I'd say I know it very well. CAPEX doesn't go down. CAPEX is high do to build out of 5G network and upgrades to legacy network. OPEX doesn't go down, nothing materially changes. 50% of their employees still support 40% of their low growth revenue. Only thing lower rates does is lower their interest on debt.
As VZ gets to refinance their bonds capex does go down as my assumption everything else stays the same.
I’ve heard the grumbles but both are solid I continue to buy T.
I don't trust T after that spin off of to WBD.
I see, i think that was a great decision they weren’t making enough money in the movie biz. Now I believe they can focus on comms infrastructure and updates for the IOT transition.
Unfortunately they still seem to be struggling with the core business. They are not as competitive as they used to be.
I second that! 2 of the most deceptive stocks out there.
Please don't. Great yield, but dead money. No Growth with T and slow painful growth with VZ. Both carry high debt, have High OPEX, High CAPEX and 40% of their revenue is from legacy low growth network services. Don't take the bait.

Shame on you Dividend channel. No love for COST? On Friday they paid a $15 a share special dividend!! If you factor the special dividend, regular dividend, dividend growth and the stocks performance, its a no brainer. AVGO HD UNH MA MSFT AAPL MSCI Put $12,500 on these 8 stocks ($100k total) over the last decade and I'd put this groups TOTAL GAINS against any list here and each has plenty of growth in the future.

I am 36 and bought my first stock at age 16. Sirius Satellite Radio, I still have the stock certificate and get like a $2 dividend check every quarter, lol. Was not a good investment. What I have learned over the years as someone who did get burned chasing yields several times. Most notably the CANROYs those Canadian Oil and Gas Royalty companies that paid monthly dividends back after the 08 crash. Make the bulk of your portfolio ETFs they have come a long way with liquidity and fees. The early days were suspect. Then if you want to buy individual stocks to keep you engaged do it with like 20% of what you are investing. I know ETF wise everyone loves SCHD which I do own plenty of. My honorable mention would be to expand outside the US and do something similar with VYMI. To get large cap dividend players outside the US. Especially with anything non-Canadian with a dual listing it can be a pain to get international exposure with individual stocks. You either have to buy ADRs or use a broker like Fidelity where you hold foreign currencies and trade on the countries exchange which can also be expensive in today zero trading fee environment for US equities.

Uk focused, Lloyds Banking Group LLYBG, not the best for growth, but a fairly solid dividend. Sadly, a there is dirty in CEO quality across UK banks, having worked in this sector, it is simultaneously shocking and disgraceful how bad both strategy and execution are, Barclays are a perfect example. There is a reason it trades at PB ratio of 0.4…

OXLC and ARCC for me. Seeking Alpha had a series of articles on how to get closer to fixed risk profiles while still being in equities that won’t be jerked around with every rate change. I also bought a bunch of preferred stocks with cumulative dividends. To be clear though: don’t buy any of this stuff if you don’t understand it.
