I have 25K for a long term investment and would like to buy decent company stock which pays high-highest dividends. I would like to ask for help from you stock traders /screeners to post couple of stocks you feel good about. Thanks,
you dont want the highest dividends. could be because they are in trouble. you want stable safe companies with good dividends. pfe or vz are a couple that should be fairly safe and pay good dividends.
hombre.. it doesn't matter if you buy 1000 shares of a stock that pays 1c dividend or 100 shares that pay 10c.. think of yield and look at any stock price..
T (AT&T) is another more "stable" stock with a decent dividend... BUT...to answer the OP's question (although I know nothing about stocks, and am not sure I'd recommend ANY of these companies), here are a few low priced stocks with "high" dividends (all between 7.5-10.5%) that actually trade some volume (>500,000K on avg) BX SLBK DT WIN
ERF and PGH are Canadian trusts that pay a monthly dividend (right around 8-9% annual at the moment). ERF is right around $20 and PGH is about $10.50. Both are optionable, which is how I play them (covered calls).
